Week Twenty Two --Friday
Who: Jax and Junk
Where: The Mine
When: Friday morning
Why: Jax hasn't been by in awhile and he's responding to her note
Jax really needed to get his head out of the clouds. There was work to be done and Junk's note had been just the kind of reminder he needed. It was unlike to have left a project like the one he'd assigned Junk, alone for so long. It had been ages since he'd been by to check on her progress and have a chat. He liked Junk, but he liked even more what she'd promise to do for him. He left for the mine the morning after he'd received her note. He had a lot of things lined up for the day and he wanted to get this done. He was anxious for the encounter he had planned with Lawliss this evening.
He rode his horse to the mine, having left the lodge a couple of hours after sunrise he made it there with plenty of time left to spare. He spoke briefly with the guards he ran into at the main gate. Thankfully they had nothing suspicious to report to him, and in a few minutes he was riding through the gate. They closed and locked it behind him. He rode almost to her front door before he dismounted and left his horse to nibble at the stray shoots of grass that dotted the otherwise almost barren landscape of the mine property. He knocked on Junk's door, hoping that he wasn't there too early.
