Part Two
Daniel Delbert Walker looked out his bedroom picture window he
immediately noticed a young woman with copper canyon daisies in her
flaxen hair. She shouted “Howdy! to him He ambled toward his room
door Walker didn’t know what to make of the brash woman. Her
screechy yell was as inviting as bathing in poison ivy. Dan told
himself he was as into gals as most men but this much. Still he was
curious about her. Once he was outside in the dark, the sliver of a
moon silvery gray with a brisk breeze he saw how foolish he was
standing there sans overcoat in the bitter cold: He saw the cars
and cabs whizzing by on the nearby highway.
“Oh, there you are!” she purred swinging her tote as if it were
magnet drawing in the handsome cowboy,. “Do your Texan now; Tex!”
Startled. he stumbled. His pride sunk as he landed on his back
side, Dan D, wished he wore his heavy wool coat to cushion his
backside He wished he could cushion his pride too. . There the
woman was, standing a few feet from him, laughing her head off.
Then pulled her daisie against her smug face. A glimmer of the
moonliight fell across the scene as Walker tried to move his sore
knees. Where did she come from? What did she want from him? It
seemed as if she just suddenly appeared out of thin air. If only
she wasnt so brazen. Gyratng her hips over his sore body and
wounded pride. Her limpid gray eyes gazing as if he was a prize
specimin
The Texan found it hard to concentrate in the brisk weather.It
wasn’t as if he feared her physically.She was a slip of a woman. It
was her bold brashinessthat threw him off guard.
The brawny Texan sauntered on bsck to the hotel room entrace.
“Don’t leave me here.” she screamed.. Stunned he asked her why. The
woman tried to tell him but the words got caught in her throat.
They both stood there , gazing at each other trying to find answers
–
“You ” she said. your face, is wilful, yet firm, strong chin,
caring eyes. “Don’t presume this is a coincidence we’re here.she
said “If you help it could save my life.” Her hand reached out to
the rugged man’s hand.. “Time is running out for me?she said,
bitterly; “Please don’t be ignorant. Help me.Walker was stunned.
She lunged towards him in desperation. Can you understsnd how
desperate I am?” “I’m asking for help from a near total
stranger?”
Suddenly Dan. D recollected he saw her several times staring at him
at the freak show. The color left his face as he remembered how her
expression back then was one of darkness. It was like there was no
understamdomg in her contenance. Yet there was no malice either..
“Please don’t be frightened” I need you to help me get there as I
am.” “Yes,” she said, resolutely “my brother–” An expression of
utter horror came into her face. “What on earth can I do?”
“It’s all right;,” D.D. Walker said,reassuringly. . Suddenly they
heard sirens, Dan D. immediately noticed her eyes followed closely
the route of the cop car. “I got to run” she said. Off she ran. The
Texan gasped as the lady kickef her high heels. Walker made frantic
gestures to hasten. her back to him. But she completely ignored
them. . “Sa-ay!” he drawled she sure is stranger than a three
headed frog. First she’s pleading for my help Next moment she’s off
to the hills. I’m getting weary of this. What in tarnation is going
on? . I just know we was talkin’ to each other commented Dan in his
thick Texan drawl. ” two people who got caught the the moment. We
stood together, gazed in to our eyes and next I knew she fled.. She
pleaded for help. I’m attempting to collect my thoughts and make
sense of of the incedent. Without a second hesitaton Dan D. ran
after the woman. He tried to see what was happening into some
logical sequence But the harder he thought, the more illogical the
experience seemed How for Heaven’s sake did he ever get jured into
a woman who was nearly a total stranger to him. If only he could
discover her situation? What blind luck tobe encountered by her.
What was her problem? The Texas man thought of going to Google to
seek more info on her. Heck every major search engine such as
Yahoo, Bing, Ask and many more.
Dan D. sensed the situation was urgent.. He looked at the highway.
“The poor little thing!” he thought I am so worried about her. I
must persue her to find out what’s going on with her. To be
continued.
