By the time Danice finally finished one full lap, the sun was already beginning to set. She still couldn’t make Blacky run with her on his back, but this was enough for today.

“Are you coming, Emma?” I smile contentedly at the warmth that spreads through my body. I’m enjoying having a boyfriend again. I had initially been pleased at the prospect of time on my own with Chris, I soon feel less enthusiastic.

Greta said, a little confused by what her nephew was thinking. "I found similarities between me and horses. I like Mia. So, I approached her first. But, she still refuses to choose me,” the man explained while glancing at the secretary, checking to see if there was a hint of regret on her face. “What happens when a horse is rejected by a rider?” "The horse will get sick," Greta answered, successfully making Mia's eyes widen.
