RaykaIt's good to know that my bull will be in a quieter place, and I can enjoy the party more peacefully.“Rayka, so what are your plans, do you intend to enter him for this year's championship or wait for next year's?”“Not at all Kaneki, Sovereign will not compete in rodeos, tonight was his last official ride.”“This is crazy Rayka.” Kaleo interrupts me. “You can't do that.”“What you can't do is get involved in a conversation you weren't invited to, and what's crazy is you thinking you have the right to have any say in my life.”I see your little smile fade as you see me speaking firmly.“Anyway, as I was saying, Kaneki, I want Sovereign to go to Dalhart and stay there in his own enclosure with access to the dam, he will undergo all the necessary tests to ensure that he has no health problems, and if everything is fine, I want him to collect the semen.”“I see, do you want his children to compete?” Kaneki asks.Although I have never done any study for genetic engineering, I learn

RaykaAs I think about how to get out of this situation, Gael quickly goes around me, and I see that he holds Kaleo's wrist and with his other hand he takes him by the collar.I feel the grip on my arm disappear and Gael pushes Kaleo backwards who staggers a few steps before stopping.“Don't you ever dare touch her again without permission.” Gael says angrily.“Just because you're fucking her, you think you can touch me like that?” Kaleo retorts.He comes at Gael who gives him a blow to the throat, making Kaleo fall to his knees with his hand on his neck, he seems to have difficulty breathing. I can't allow this situation to escalate into a physical assault issue.“Gael, please stop.” I grab his arm and he turns to me.“I am sorry Rayka, I am not violent, I just lost my mind with the way he acted towards you.”I like his gentle way, I see that he thinks that my request was for fear of the violence he acted, when I just don't want him to have problems for defending me or that because o

RaykaI would just forget about Kaleo forever, but I don't think that's possible.“And he still had the nerve to approach Rayka today, is this guy insane?” Charles asks.He has a point, Kaleo had a lot of guts, and while he can claim I went up to him earlier, he can't say the same for the park.“He must have seen it as a neutral area since he didn't go all the way to Boston or Amarillo after me.”“That's ridiculous, the place doesn't matter, it's the fact that he disturbed you.” Sarah says.“We know that, but you forget that men usually use their heads to think, not to mention that they get carried away easily when their ego is shaken.” Ness speaks up.“Hey, please don't generalize, I am not like that.” Gael asks.“Relax, we're not ones to generalize.” I smile to calm him down. “If I were like that, after growing up with Bryan around, I would be terrified of men.”“Here you go again.” Bryan complains.“But this time it's not because you're gay, it's because you not only went out with

RaykaWe arrive at the food-truck, there are three people in front of us in line, Gael stands next to me and turns to me.“You know when Bryan was telling me about your dad and Kaleo, it seemed to me that your dad is very jealous of you.”I control myself not to laugh, because it seems that he is afraid of the old man.“He is a little, but I think every father should be like that, and since I am an only child, he's become more protective than usual.”“It could be, I have three sisters at home, my father was never very protective, he said that disappointments are part of life.”“He's not wrong, my dad is protective, but he's never stopped me from living my life.”“He only tends to threaten his exes after they break up.”“Remember what I said about not generalizing?” I ask and he nods. “Your turn not to do that, I only dated Kaleo seriously and I don't think anyone can blame him for what he did, not least because he didn't do anything that terrible.”“Rayka calm down.” Gael asks, huggin

RaykaI hear the food-truck whistle that an order is ready, I turn around and see it's ours.“Our order is ready; I will go get it” I say getting up.“I will help you bring it.” Gael says getting up too.This is not surprising, he has been with me all day, I like his company, because he is kind and I also liked the moments of complicity, besides of course the wonderful kisses we exchanged.However, now I am worried that he will try to defend his friend and that will cause an annoying atmosphere between us. Gael takes my hand, and we walk to the food truck, he waits until he is some distance from the table to speak.“Rayka, about Hillary's call, I hope she didn't think she and I have anything besides friendship.”I expected him to want to talk, but I am relieved that he doesn't want to talk about what I thought about her tastes.“I won't deny that at first I thought you were in an open relationship, but then you said she's your friend's wife and you respect that. Then I saw it was no

RaykaWe eat in silence, I am finishing the potatoes when my cell phone starts ringing and I see its Kaneki, I imagine he has some news, by now he must have managed to board the Sovereign to take the farm. I hope he took my threat seriously and it's not Kaleo on the other end of the line.“There you go.” I say as I pick up.“Hi Rayka.” Kaneki speaks. “We just loaded Sovereign on the truck Paul sent as soon as he's settled at the farm I will let you know.”“That's right Kaneki and thanks again.”“Help yourself if you need anything just ask.” Speak and hang up.They were pretty fast, but it's no surprise, when Powell's name is in the conversation, everything happens at lightning speed. At least now my boy will be in a safe and quiet place and will soon meet his new home.“All right, Rayka?” Ness asks.“Yes, they are already taking Sovereign to the farm.”“Rayka, I know this is none of my business and you don't want anyone getting involved, but can I ask you a question?” Allan asks.I im

RaykaWe continue walking around the park, Bryan insists on going to the target practice and there we get several plush keychains with emoji faces, I get myself and the girls a metal one in the shape of a puzzle, in the middle it says, "best friend" and one fits the other.In the ring game, only the boys try, and everyone manages to win, Bryan gives Liz a Stitch stuffed animal, Gael gives me Fergus, Charles offers Pooh to Ness and Allan offers Mushu to Sarah.“I saw this red stuffed toy; I thought it would suit you.” Allan speaks in that gallant way of his, which irritated me the minute I met him, because it reminded me too much of Bryan.“You needn't have bothered.”Sarah's attitude makes me realize that she is not comfortable with Allan around.“'It's no bother at all darling, just accept it.” Allan insists.“Okay, thank you.”I realize that she is only accepting out of politeness. I think she was more upset than she showed with his attitude towards my victory, from what they said h

RaykaAs soon as I get on stage, the lead singer comes up and hugs me, and even though I am surprised, I return the gesture. Although he is young, he is very handsome, but I have never liked boys younger than me, and I throw my hat away if he is over twenty.“I have always liked blondes, but seeing your beautiful brunette I will change, because your beauty is so great that it is making me fall in love.”“Rayka, tell us how it was for you to ride that bull tonight?” Asks the other singer.“It was exciting.”“And you didn't feel a bit scared?”“Of course, I did, fear makes us cautious, we just can't let it incapacitate us. And having rodeo in our DNA helps a little bit.” I laugh.“I am not sure if it helped, but the fact is that you put on a great show. "Now tell me, are you single, engaged, married, separated, widowed or in a relationship?" I ask another singer in the band.” Asks another singer in the band.I find this option funny, it fits well with Liz's situation with Bryan, since h

RaykaWhen it's close to midnight, I start looking around because I need to find a place to do our tradition. Since the girls and I started spending New Year's Eve together, we have created a tradition of being in a place where we can jump and put our right foot on the ground first, for good luck in the coming year.The best place to do this is on the planks that are around the field, and so the sand will also absorb the impact a little, which will help a lot, especially Liz who is wearing stiletto heels.The singer starts the 60-second countdown, and I ask the boys to help us climb the fence, Liz stays in the middle, so as not to take too much risk when jumping. We sit down, take off our hats, letting them hang around our necks, and hold hands with each other.“May our friendship remain firm, no matter the storms.” I speak.“May this year be filled with many joys.” Ness speaks.“May all our dreams come true.” Liz speaks.“May we win the victory in our achievements.” Sarah speaks.We

RaykaWhen we arrive at the hotel, the girls say good night and go up to their rooms, and although I don't know how long Liz and Bryan will take to arrive, I believe that if it is fast Gael will not leave soon after, and although it is very late, I don't think it will be nice to stay in the lobby armchairs talking and much less kissing, in the lounge that has in my suite there is a sofa that we can be a little more comfortable.At the stadium Gael said he didn't expect anything else for today, I hope he told the truth.“Gael, do you agree to come up to the room with me to talk, just talk.” I repeat so that there is no doubt.“That's fine, but if you don't feel comfortable, we can stay right here.”“It's not that, I just didn't want you to have any hope of anything more.”“Rest assured I don't.”I hold my ogre babies in one arm and hold out my hand to him, heading for the elevator. As soon as the elevator doors close, I let go of his hand and run my finger along the belt loop of his pa
