“How’s his leg?”
“It’s healing, slowly but surely. He’s got one hell of an ugly scar, but it’ll heal with time.”
Bill motioned to his side. “I can relate.”
“Me too,” James said, removing his hand from his face since the smile was no longer there to be concealed.
Bill nodded solemnly.
“What are your plans?” James asked.
“I think I’ll retire,” Bill said. “Don’t look so surprised. The doctor said I’ve got maybe one more year left, the least I can do is spend it with my family.”
“By God?” James asked, his smile returning.
“By God.”
