Jack sat beside the woodstove, warming his hands. No mittens, no gloves. But they'd had a good time, Ennis 'n him. Never though Ennis would be up fer a snowball fight. Jack smiled. Ennis had acted like a damn kid again. Never forget the way he'd tackled Jack, both landin' face first down in the snow then rollin' around like it was a field a daisies instead wet snow.
"What are ya doin' in there Ennis? Ain't ya cold?"
"Be right there. Gettin' ya something."
like this el
"Now ya got me down right curious." Jack scooted around, lookin’ ta see what Ennis was up to in the kitchen.
"Hold yer horses Rodeo. I'm comin'."
"I’m comin’-- now them are words I like ta hear. Better git in here soon. I need warmin' up better then this fire is a'doin'."
Jack looked up and there Ennis stood with a shit eatin' grin on his face, hangin' onto this thing danglin' from a string.
"What the hell is that?" Jack asked.
"Ya said ya liked watchin' the birds from the window. Made this fer you. Junior showed me how. Ya take an apple, spread peanut butter on it then roll it in bird seed."
"Yer becomin’ a regular walkin' ‘Hints from Heloise’ ain't ya Ennis!"
"Shut up, er I'll make you eat this instead of the birds."
"Other things I'd rather be eatin' right now."
Jack took the gift out of Ennis’ hand.
“It’s right nice Ennis. Thank ya.” Jack lead Ennis up to the woodstove. “Now, come here and git me warm.”

Jack Twist is sitting by the woodstove, right up near, and as close as a person can get.! Still he
cant get warm. Ennis told him one of the reasons he got this cabin, was because he was always
complainin about the cold... Dam i just cant seem to get warm any more no matter what i do.
Jack sits and wonders where did Ennis get off to anyway? He must be out feeding the horses.
He always was the one that got up so early..Jack preferring to sleep in every chance he got..
Being in bed was also a way of staying covered and helped him feel warmer. Jack moved even
closer to the fire..Damn if i get any closer ill be sitting on the dam thang. About that time he looks
in the corner of the room, and sees a box of extra woolen clothes, must've been left by Roes
family. Consideres, and decides to get the red pair of mittens laying there, and put them on his freezing hands.. dont care if I look like adang girl..Ennis is sure to give him hell when he gets in here..
Jack sits and waits what seems forever, and wonders "what in hell" " i forgot !!"I forgot, im dead."
