It had twinges a bit now and then I would expect that you will recall I was the one who was supposed to you walking on it so soon?

Yes, ma'am.

However, I appreciate your desire.

Thio, be active.

May I check?

Yes, ma'am.

Wow, The stitches.

The whole nicely.

Mhm.

The wound is healing very well.

When do you think I'll be fully recovered?

Some would say you're recovered now.

I'm sure the Army surgeons would say you are ready to return to duty.

So you'd like me to leave?

I didn't say that.

Of course not.

You're far too polite a lady to be so blunt about.

I must blunt as I need to be.

Corporal McBurney.

Since you brought it up, I would say that the leg will be healed well enough to leave by the end of the week.

That's in just a few days.

Yes, it is.

Where would I go?

I'm afraid that's entirely your business.

Where you go call.

However, I think you may find columns of your troops on the main road to Richmond.

Your garden should have continual care.

I mean, you need a full time gardener, perhaps, But I expect in these times, when just has to do without, it's a shame, isn't it?

That I couldn't have remained helpless?

Yeah.
