Chapitre 289: One Last Stop

      Delaney felt better after their short stop at the home of Duncan and Selina.  Not only did her stomach feel better after the rest but her heart felt happier too.  She had never dreamed she would consider Selina a friend again after their last encounter but after talking with her and learning the real reason for her vicious attack on Vincent, Delaney felt hopeful.

      The heat of the day was still smothering but it seemed like they had waited out the worst of it while they were stopped.  Now as they traveled on, the sun was slowly beginning to start for the opposite horizon.

      As it began to grow dark, the insects of the night could be heard tuning up for their nightly concert.  A little breeze had picked up, bringing at least some relief from the heat.
