Will became progressively more despondent as time went by, constantly
looking forward to the day when he could find the opportunity to extradite himself
from the position he was in, without it affecting his income.
The long journey home after stressful days allowed him to unwind, and getting
off the bus in Vermont seemed a million miles away from the problems, which was
a godsend. Dorothy was busy getting the items necessary to turn their new house

It was one hot and dusty evening as Will alighted from the bus to see a familiar
figure waiting. With all the trauma going on at work he had practically forgotten
about Ed, but there he was like a bad penny. They stood, each looking at the
other, awaiting some form of response. Will spoke first.
"I was just thinking what bad penny is likely to turn up next and look, here you
are!" Ed laughed, he seemed in a good mood.
"I'm glad to see that you haven't changed."
