Wild west - part 2
Tom climbed into the saddle and rode his black horse southeast, same way James Wesley came in and out of town.
He rode for about 100 miles through the deserted countryside when what little of the road there was, suddenly vanished in front of his eyes. Wild grass and bushes as far as the eye could see, with no signs of civilization.
Even to a very suspicious individual that place would look like nothing more than an abandoned country road that never served its purpose. But Tom knew something no one else did. Tom knew his father.
They never personally met, but from what Tom had gathered about James, the two were a lot like identical twins. Had the old man in that god forsaken town not been drunk as a kite, he’d probably note that he, too, has the presence of death around him.
Tom dismounted his horse to stretch his back and have a bite.
“Just a little further, Magnum, just a little further,“ he told the horse, playfully pulling on its nose ring that resembled that of a bull.
