Angela didn't know what to say.  She was sure he was joking this time, but the smile was gone.  Nothing but pure honesty on his face.  Her head was spinning, almost involuntarily, she dashed out of the bar, and started across the dusty concrete parking lot towards the bus station.   Halfway between the two buildings, a firm hand on her shoulder spun her around.   He held her at arms length with a firm hold on her shoulder that let her know she wasn't going anywhere until he let her.  The sun was half way down behind the Davis mountains behind his back, and all she could see was his silhouette.  All she could hear was his voice, talking steady and low.  By the time he finished, the sun was gone and they both were crying.  He could see in her eyes that she understood.  At least he hoped she did.  "Come on" she said, wiping away his tears with her thumb.  "we're going to miss that bus."
