It was today. Scott was going to come today. I wanted everything to be perfect. When he came I would be so emotional.
I was ready in the next hour he would come and I would sit on the stump next to the house and wait.
That hour passed by and no one came. I though I should wait a few more hours just in case. I went inside I started cooking stew enough for two people. But that night I ate two bowls.
The next morning I thought he must have fell behind. So I decided I would wait only a few more days.
But every night his chair at the table would be empty.
Finally I decided to go after him. The next day I would start on my way back. That night I packed my stuff I packed milk from the goats I had a few more fish left and I also brought wheat that I had dried. That night I would go to bed early for the long walk tomorrow.
