“English Ed came out here a few days ago,” she said.
“He did, eh?” Jimmy’s tone was belligerent. “What’d he want?”
“Nothing, I guess.”
“Nothin’?”
Dawn laughed.
“I didn’t meet him. Dad talked to him. He asked Dad about me. And he told Dad that you were almost broke.”
“What did your dad say, Dawn?”
“He said that was good.”
Jimmy laughed softly.
