Coyote Springs - Gail Odom West - Bog

Della had walked onto the porch to water some plants. Nellie was in the kitchen finishing supper for the boarders. Della looked up and saw a buggy heading her way. She laughed that Jim had forgotten his usual supper from Nellie. She started down the steps, going toward the buggy, as Jim was turning the buggy to head out. Della came up to Jim and asked him what he had forgotten. When Della looked up and saw him, her face went ashen, and she turned to run, but it was too late! Della felt her body being pulled into the buggy, and it started to move. She tried to scream, but hands were covering her mouth. She fainted.
