The letter arrives, a standard if somewhat stained and crumpled envelope with a return address of a post office box in El Paso, Texas to the name of 'Dusty'.
Inside, on a motel stationary it reads,
Ma'am, if you'll have me back, I would like to. I can't promise I'll be any more reliable than the last two times. I promise to do my best to protect and serve the place. There's no other place I'd rather be.
I'll wait on your answer.
Sincerely,
Dusty Napper
