Larkspur
“MST Denver, Colorado Sissy waited by the coal tunnel door until she saw Mike’s Bronco start into the garage, and then she ran to meet him. He was pulling in when she noticed he had a passenger.
Sissy ran to Mike’s side of the truck.
“Sissy!” Mike said as he got out of the Bronco.

“What’s going on?” Mike asked.
