THE LYNETTE'S RANCH

Trying to tidy up her kitchen really fast, because her daughter has been making a fuss about the Francisca of a girl leaving the Dead Horse ranch and leaving Bobby Calhoun all alone.

Mandy hadn't eaten breakfast all in the name of getting something real good to wear, why? she didn't know either. But she sure believed it had something to do with Bobby Calhoun.

Stepping out of the kitchen and trying to climb up really fast to her daughter's room she almost tripped but she needed to hear Mandy's explanation to understand what was going on.

"Can you help me pick out a dress like a real good one?" Mandy asked.

"But for what Mandy?" Sandy asked not taking her eyes off the magazine she was reading.

"Because I need to be by his side, he's heartbroken. He's shattered by tha city gal I'm not gonna sit and do nothing." Mandy said throwing out the last shred of clothe she had.

Her head aching really bad from thinking too much. Thinking that now Francisca was outta the way she could finally hang out with Bobby and grow really close to him. Maybe he would lean on her and Maybe he could take a proper look at her and Maybe find his strength back.

Maybe love her and if possible Maybe they could get married.

Everything she was thinking about was surrounded by 'MAYBE'. how she really hoped all that could happen.

Stepping into her daughter's room and seeing that everything was a mess she shook her head and looked at Sandy who looked like nothing was going wrong around her and turned her eyes back to Mandy.

"Young lady, could you please give me a good reason why you hadn't come down for Breakfast?" Mrs Lynette asked.

"Mom I told you I needed a new wardrobe and maybe some really sexy good looking cloths suitable for a 'young lady'". Mandy said putting stress on the 'Young lady'.

"We can do that later but you've got to explain your actions". Mrs Lynette said bending down to pick some clothes up.

"Mom. Francisca left. I think for good, she left him and he needs a companion right now." Mandy said.

"And who told you the best companion would be you?" Sandy asked taking away the magazine to look at her mom.

"Nobody asked for your opinion." Mandy said rolling her eyes at Sandy.

"And who's this 'he' you're talking about?" Mrs Lynette asked feigning ignorance.

"Bobby Calhoun," Mandy said sitting hard on her bed, almost at the brink of tears even if she didn't know why she wanted to cry.

"So, Bobby Calhoun erm fiancée is gone?" Mrs Lynette asked.

"She must have gone back to the city to get all her stuff," Sandy said.

"She left, like really left for a far away land to get some stupid dream's of hers accomplished." Mandy said glancing towards her mom.

"So what's your plan?" Mrs Lynette asked.

"Mom, Bobby's heartbroken he needs to like recuperate and he needs a woman for that. And I really want to push my luck with him." Mandy said.

"He won't take a second look at you." Sandy said, and she knew that for a fact even if she wished for her sister's happiness she knew that whatever Mandy was planning will not work.

"Can you at least say something good about your sister?" Mrs Lynette asked, turning to look at Mandy who had her face buried in her palm. Her heart hurt. Bobby Calhoun would never make a good husband to either of her girls but at the same time she couldn't blame her daughter for falling for that mess of a man. Tho that's how she saw him as and would never voice it out to the hearing of Mandy. Thinking hard she wanted to support her girl but she knew that it wasn't going to work out no matter what.

Crossing over to Mandy's side she pulled her up into her arms and hugged her real tight.

Feeling the comfort of her mother she couldn't hold it in anymore as she let the tears flow. She really liked Bobby. No likeness wasn't the best word to describe it with but love. God has given her a chance and she would use it to the fullest.
