Day 2 - Morning - Train arrival

[Myra]

Myra, which noticed Preston and Annabelle from away, walked toward the telegraph and greeted Horace.

"Good morning Horace." she glanced to Annabelle. "Do you know who are this lady with Preston? They look adorable together!"

[Horace Bing]

"Good morning, Myra," Horace said, a little nervous and hoping word of his mishap with Sam's lunch had not reached her. "That is Miss Annabelle, Myra. Now what could I help you with?" Horace did not like to gossip and wanted to get to the point with Myra.

[Myra]

Myra nodded. "I need to send this telegram to my sister Molly in St-Louis?" she asked while give him a paper with a notice on it "Tell to Adam to not us, I start to work at the bank tomorow. Greetings to you and aunt Lizzie, Myra."

"How I own you?" she said while open her purse.

[Horace Bing]

Horace read it and looked at her. "The bank?" He leaned forward "With Preston? Why?" He whispered, even though he knew it was none of his business, he just wanted to know. He was still getting used to the idea of her working anyway. He sighed and mumbled, "that man wants to take over the entire town and ruin it.."

He looked at Myra. He told her the amount and waited for her to give it to him.

[Myra]

She put the money on the counter and closed her purse.

"Thank you."

She was to left when she finally turned back again toward Horace.

"How was Samantha this morning? Yesterday at the supper, she was really excited to start school this morning! And Mrs. Quessy seem to be a really nice person for teach to the children."

[Horace Bing]

Horace smiled, thinking of his daughter. The one girl who he loved more than anything in the world. "She was great. She wore that dress that you picked out," he said. "She was so excited to start school. I can't wait to see her this afternoon to see how things went."

His eyes always seemed to light up whenever he spoke of his daughter. "W..Would you like to meet for pie to see her this afternoon?"

[Myra]

"Why not! I start to work only tomorrow after all." Myra smiled to herself at the idea to work again at the bank.

"I must admit that I can't wait too. This is so different from St-Louis here for her." Myra paused - she tried to avoid to talk about St-Louis often it is possible, but well, St-Louis was a huge part of Samantha life and the things there were very different than in Colorado Springs - she could denied it.

"So, this afternoon after the school at Grace?"

[Horace Bing]

Horace nodded. "Yes. And Myra, I want her to like it here, okay? I cannot be without my daughter any longer. I like having her here." He said, after the mention of St. Louis. He didn't want to lose his daughter again and he was just starting to get to really know her.

"I'll see you after school?" he asked. "I'll pick her up and then I'll bring her to Grace's."

[Myra]

Myra nodded and started to walk back from the office. She sighed to herself - the stay in town was for a year, for allow Samantha to have more time for know better her father, but it wasn't something forever.

While walking away, she smiled politely to Annabelle which was sit and waited near the office.

(Preston returned to the train station with one huge happy smile on his lips, as he walked towards Annabelle who was happy to see him again)

Preston: I hope I haven’t kept you waiting too long.

(He reached Annabelle and handed her the glass of water from his hand while holding a small basket under his other arm)

Preston: How are you feeling now? Better I hope.

(He glanced down at his basket)

Preston: I’ve purchased some buns, some extra water in a bottle for the trip and an apple which I thought would benefit you and your child.

(He looked down at Annabelle who was sitting on the bench drinking the water he had given her)

[Annabelle Rose Emerson]

Annabelle nodded while grinned to herself - for he and her child to be. This words echo in her head but she had difficulty to beleive that she was waiting a baby for real.

Annabelle: That will be fine.

She finished to drink the water which Preston put it back in the basket. While stood up, she opened her umbrella for protect her eyes from the sinning sun.
