By now, the edge of Town was only a few minutes away. Bevan counted his money and it came to six bucks, a half buck and seven pennies. A couple of nights at the inn and some new clothes would wipe out much of it, so he asked Ala how much he owed her.
She gave him a big smile. “You were good traveling company, so we’ll call it even. Most of the time, all I ever get to hear is my own voice or the noise of horses.”
“Well, at least let me buy you a beer”, Bevan told her.
“OK, you’re on”, she replied. “let me drop off this load and get the horses stabled and I’ll meet you at the inn.”
As they crossed into Town, Bevan jumped off the slow moving wagon and said, “See you at the inn, Ala!” before heading off towards a general store.
Ala urged the horses along at a slightly quicker pace. This day was turning out pretty well after all.
