B.L. Davenport Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Daisy ran in behind Luke to Mr. and Mrs. Davenport's bedroom, Mrs. Davenport sat up in bed the second she heard Luke at the door. "What's the matter Luke are you kids alright?"..."Bo's gone home!" Daisy piped up from behind Luke. "Oh my" Mrs. Davenport exclaimed hearing the news as she woke her husband to go after the youngest Duke child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoJamesDuke Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Bo however was practically already home. Taking a short cut through the woods, tears already slipping down the youngest child's face, he soon arrived on the dusty yard of the Duke Farm. Things were already eerily quiet, none of the chickens were out for him to chase....everything already seemed very different...very wrong. Sniffing, he headed to the front door, taking a puff of his inhaler he always kept on him before knocking on the door with his little hand.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Jesse went to the door having been phoned by the Davenports to expect Bo. Opening it he said softly, "Bo...son what're you doing home?"Luke held onto Daisy's hand meanwhile, not sure if the Davenports would go ahead and take them home or not, but hoping so...he didn't want to be here any longer.

B.L. Davenport Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Seeing the way Luke was holding onto Daisy and she him the Davenports decided it was probably best to take them along with them that home was probably best for them at the moment at least until things could be settled with Bo. Pulling into the Duke driveway a short time later Mr. Davenport got out of the car and took Daisy who had fallen asleep in the car in his arms and carried her to the door. Mrs. Davenport followed holding Luke's hand knocking on the front door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Jesse had no sooner picked up a crying Bo in his arms and walked to the kitchen trying to hush him when he seen the Davenports pulling up through the kitchen window. "It seems the whole family's gonna be here after all. " He didn't really mind...in truth it helped take care of the horrible emptiness in his heart.Luke never was one to wait. Letting go of Mrs. Davenpor's hand he rushed in hugging his uncle tight, big tears rolling down hs face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoJamesDuke Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Bo didn't look down, still crying into his Uncle's shoulder, wishing it was his auntie's as his whole little body shook and shuddered with the sobs being torn from his throat.
