HOW MANY FRuIT baskets did one girl need? If the answer was seven, well
then, Maggie Newman was doing just fine. Ooh. She’d missed the bag of
apricots from Elliot and his wife. So, that made eight? She fingered the
cellophane-wrapped edge of one that boasted three ways to enjoy a golden
delicious. As it fell from the tree, obviously, but what condolence gift
would be complete without apple butter and, of course, a Dutch apple pie?
One basket even had an apple wearing a bandana and straw hat.
Maggie shook her head.

You could take the cowboy off the ranch, but…
It seemed folks in San Antonio expressed sorrow the same way they did
up north—with food. Not that Maggie wasn’t grateful, just exhausted.
She snatched a peach from an open gift box and bit into it, letting the
sweetness wash away the bitter taste in her mouth.
The neighborly assault-by-produce wasn’t as alarming as the letter next
to the baskets on her granite counter. As Maggie hovered over it, juice fell
from the just-ripe peach, staining its corner. Brushing it off, Maggie read it
for the umpteenth time, even though she knew it by heart—a heart that
struggled to catch up to what it all meant.

I …
Heat burned against the back of her eyes, but she wouldn’t cry. Not for
this, she’d save her tears for the man himself. A man who’d died much too
soon.
I , M N,

Maggie took another bite of the fruit and looked down to find a green
June beetle sitting on the pit as if she’d disrupted his sleep. Nausea rolled
through her chest and stomach even though the peach was the first thing
she’d had since her vanilla bean espresso that morning. She tossed the fruit
in the compost bin under her sink and fell into the overstuffed love seat
looking out over the city.

Spread in front of her like a bounty was the city she’d come to call
home. San Antonio was bright, loud, and an odd mix of thousand-dollar
suits and ten-gallon hats, but she’d made it hers. Now, under the startling
afternoon Texas sun, it almost looked fake, like a cartoon drawing of too
much glass, too much light. Too much stuff.

San Antonio was the dream she and her father had shared—a life away
from the struggles of a ranch and all the trappings that came with it. At one
point in her early teens, she’d disagreed with him almost to the point of
severing their relationship. But that was a long time ago. She was a
different woman now, and her biggest supporter was gone.

Because he worked himself to death. For you.
She shoved the guilt down, hid it behind heartfelt memories.
Her dad showing up in San Antonio with a framed print of the logo
she’d designed for Steel Born as a housewarming gift.

Playing chess with him on her patio, him shaking his hips for the
upscale neighborhood to see when he’d whooped her two games in a row.
Hanging lights on her apartment door every Christmas, even though she
argued that no one but her cranky neighbor could see them.
