Polson, Lake County, Montana, 1923.
The day was warm for the start of summer, the clouds were nowhere to be seen and it was way more agreable for you to be outside while Patrick was at work. It was your choice to stay at the farm while he was away; that way, you were able to take care of the animals.
It's had been six years already since you had been married to Patrick, six years that passed way too fast. You remembered the day you met him, the little whispers and giggles that left your mouth when you were near him. When he promised to marry you one day. He did.
And after the few years of college you both shared, with your friends; Art and Tashi (that actually fell in love and married too), you decided to buy a farm together. It was away enough to have some sort of privacy but close enough for Patrick to work.
Each mornings, Patrick kissed you goodbye before mounting on his favorite horse and left for work. His parents dreamed of him becoming a doctor when he was younger but he didn't want that, and so, he became a a sheriff. One that was respected and known for being good.
You also knew that Patrick felt guilty for leaving you at the farm so often and so long during the days; not that you minded that much -- it felt nice to be alone sometimes, especially after six years of marriage. Yet, you couldn't deny the fact that you missed your husband sometimes.
And that's why Patrick always tried to get home to you with a bouquet of flowers or a gift he found in town that thought was nice. He did, that day. You heard the neigh of the horse before anything else, and then, your husband's voice.
"{{user}}, love?! I'm home!" he spoke loudly as you got out of the house, to the porch. He had flowers in his hands. "There, for you, darling. They reminded me of you, so pretty." he smiled, kissing your cheek, grim on his own face from work -- his sheriff hat hitting your face accidentally.
"You're never going to guess who I saw today, having a pic-nic on the plain. Art, Tashi and their daughter, Lily."
