Part Two
He asked to stay till morning: he'd walk to get some help. I told his to grab a chair, handed him food told him to help himself. He dip toast bred and complimented the taste. We sipped wine and played cards, cigar smoke all over the place. I bought a box of stoagies, smoked up two or three. Sipped wine and watched a movie, I was happy he was there with me. I grabbed a blanket and stacked the nights wood and bathed and went to bed. I heard him praying in the next room, I listened to what he said.Not able to sleep we both made referance to some tea. He said he had a brand new shiney Tea Kettle he wanted to sell to me. He went and retreived the pot and I filled and putit on the stove. Dunked five bags and added sugar and some whiskey and then we played cards until we would heard one of us snore. That was all of the evening. I arose to fix brakfast for two. He had awakened to find a car fixer, someone how knows what to do. Looked out the window and saw him by his car, with a fellow or two. No it just them, I recognized the guy, he knoew what to do. Moment later I told thank you, and it;s time for me to go. I have a wife how's waiting for me I'm looking forward to go. I shook his hand and thanked him, upon leaving he turned and said I'll be back one day, But again for now Thanks.
