“He’s an expert,” Gracie said, before Dallas could admit he didn’t know.
Between the two ladies they had his future nailed down in two minutes. It was like being trapped between whirlwinds, but Dallas didn’t mind. He felt relief that he could stay, get to know his wife and daughter. Somehow God would reveal the next step.
“I’ll ask our sheriff to come over a little later. He’s a friend of mine and I’m sure he’ll help us figure out a way to locate your family.” Elizabeth surveyed his shabby clothes. “Camp staff usually wear jeans and camp shirts, which we provide. You can pick some up tomorrow morning, or Gracie can show you this evening. She’ll know where to find some boots, as well.”
Though he searched her face, Dallas found no hesitancy in Elizabeth’s manner toward him. The ranch owner obviously valued Gracie’s opinion and would accept Dallas on her word.
“I’ll do my best to make sure you’re not disappointed,” he promised. But Elizabeth didn’t return his smile.
Her brown eyes darkened.
“Don’t worry about disappointing me,” she murmured, an iron inflection backing the softly voiced words. “Worry about them.” She inclined her head toward the house, where Gracie had run inside to answer Misty’s call. “They’re more important than anything.”
“I know that. It will be hard for Gracie to have me back after such a long time,” he admitted.
“But you will stay?”
“Ms. Wisdom, you couldn’t pay me to move, now that I’ve found my family.”
“Good. God created families to support and love each other. He’s brought you here for a reason, Dallas. I’m going to pray you find it.”
“Thank you.”
Elizabeth patted his shoulder, then walked out of the yard toward the main buildings, whistling a little tune as she went.
Dallas sank back into his chair and sipped his tea, watery now that the ice had melted.
“I sure hope You know what You’re doing here, Lord,” he said, trying to ignore the call Gracie’s swimming pool sent his weary body. “Because I haven’t got a clue.”
He tilted his head back, closed his eyes and waited for the shadows to come. But for the first time since he could remember, no whispers haunted him.
