Both the men Trevor Clark and Jay Kelly, were counting and stacking the money… Kitty just sat watching them.   Finally again she asked:  earlier, you kept saying She…who were you talking about?   
Don’t do that Red!.. we’re trying to count here…?   Oh, well…Excuse me.. she said sarcastically!
Then Jay began to laugh…why don’t you know Red?…. The Big Guys Old Flame…  What are you talking about?   She said with a raised brow.     She’s a been right under your nose Red… you even gave her a Job… now he was really laughing!    You mean Lily?    That be Her.  Now Kitty started to think….
It wasn’t her imagination… or just over friendliness … she had been trying to curb her Jealousy ..when it came to other woman… but, she did  hear what happen down on the bar room floor when she was coming across the landing … but was giving Matt the benefit of the doubt.. and waiting for him to tell her about it?
Now she was getting a queezy feeling in her stomach ….  Well, it won’t work ya know?   Sure of that are ya Red?    I am!  But inside she wanted to cry.   She thought to herself ..was this another one of his out-law girlfriends coming out of the woodwork again?  But she didn’t want to let it show.   Then she thought….
Oh, Cowboy… Where are you?… Please …feel me … hear me… Please come find me… I need you!


Sam, Festus and Matt… grabbed Barney…here sit catch your breath…. Sam got Barney a drink….
