Meet Me Halfway
She did a jump over a fence, and Bryan let out a laugh, and realised with a jolt that he’d really never given Aine a ride with Sweetheart, he would have to fix that.
He made her come to a stop by a stream. They had ridden thick into the woods , much farther away than the place where he and Aine had been the day he had seen her picking berries with her dog, kenell. The day they had met.
He looked around, and breathed in the sweetness of the air, and for the first time, in a very long time, he thought. He thought about the day he met Rhoda.
She bumped into him and gave him an awkward smile, “i’m sorry, silly me, i wasn’t paying attention.”
