Things had rushed by in one remarkable blur. Ahren didn’t know how he got Jasper here or where exactly here was, but the boy needed someone besides his father and he needed to be inside. A coyote had come and helped him, and they had gotten the boy settled. Only when Jasper fell asleep did Ahren venture away from his side, and out into the cooling air. It was going to rain again soon, but how soon that was he could not tell. He had drawn the rolled cigarettes from his bag and sparked one up, taking a deep breath. Something was terribly wrong, and he didn’t know what he could do. He didn’t know much of anything anymore. “Thank you,” he said suddenly, sparing a glance at the man who had followed him out.
