Chapter 2
(Wednesday, 10 am)
Bo was still a bit queasy from his early morning wake up call, but he was in his best suit.
For not feelin well, he sure cleans up nice.
Bo was sitting on the living room couch, holding down his stomach, and holding back tears, which only one was cooperating.
"Bo, ya ready ta go?" Luke asked, Daisy following him.
"Yeah." Bo replied, wiping his eyes.
Daisy handed him a tissue, and took one for herself.
"Thanks." Bo said, and blew his nose—got another tissue—and wiping his eyes again.
Bo went up to Luke, and whispered in his ear,
"Are you sure it's not my fault?"
"No, Bo, it isn't, I'm sure. It wasn't anyone's fault." Luke explained gently.
"Okay." Bo said.
For the first time in his life, Bo only half-believed his cousin. He thought back to Monday…
(Monday, 2:45pm, Duke Farm)
"Uncle Jesse? UNCLE JESSE?" Bo was calling worriedly.
He couldn't find his uncle anywhere. Bo checked in the barn, and screamed at the sight. Luke came rushing in.
"Bo, what's wrong?" Luke asked, worried.
"Uncle Jesse…." Bo said, and then pointed.
"Go call an ambulance, I'll check for a--." And that's all Luke got out before Bo went running for the CB in the General.
"This is Bo Duke; I need an ambulance out here at the farm." Bo said in the CB mike.
"Bo, this is Ardy, I'm on my way." Ardy, the Duke's friend, who's also an ambulance attendant, replied.
"Thank you so much." Bo said, put the mike back, and went into the barn.
There was a small pool of blood where Uncle Jesse had hit his head. Now, all they could do was wait for the ambulance….
