Chapter 58: Afternoon horseback riding

Right after having their lunch, Vince and Tricia decided to finally take the kids to the fields.

Adan had been wanting to ride the horse and a reason why he keeps requesting it since yesterday.

     The day they arrived at the place.

Halley and Abbey on the other hand were the first to get into their horses.

Tricia was reminding the girls to be careful in riding though both of the ladies knew what exactly to do.

"Hal, be careful in riding ha and—"

"And no need to worry po, okay? I used to ride this back in Napa."

"Okay but still," Tricia smiled at her.

     She then turned to Abbey.

     Who was right beside Halley.

"And you, Abbey—"

"Mum, I've got this."

     "Yes but your condition."

"I'll be fine, mum," Abbey assured her.

     "Okay, I just want to make sure you two will be safe," Tricia reached their hands.

"We know po, so thank you," Halley told her then held her hands too.

Meanwhile, Vince was carrying Adan as he walked towards the ladies.

Gently let his son ride with his ate Halley.

"Oh, be careful in riding ha. You have your brother with you, sweet pea."

"When did I become careless, pa?"

"Every time?"

"Papa!" Halley frowned at him.

"Just kidding, basta hold your brother."

Vince made sure to check if the girth and cinch were tightly fastened to the saddle that was properly placed around their horses.

"Baby, hold your ate always, okay."

"Yes, mama."

"Can we go now po?" Halley asks.

Even if Vince trusts Halley that she'll be responsible with her brother for the whole ride, he still waits for Tricia to give them the approval.

Which Tricia gave since she trusts them all to be very cautious and mindful like how she reminded them.

     "Kids, please be careful in riding."

     "We'll be extra careful, promise po."

     Aw, our sweet little bean, Tricia flashes a genuine smile at the kids while Vince stood beside her.

     "Are you ready, babie Dan?"

    "Yes ate Halley!"

     "Avs, scared?"

     Halley teasingly asked.

     "You wish," she smirked.

     Halley and Abbey had a bet earlier.

     "Are you two racing?" Vince asks.

     "Yes, pa," Halley replied.

    "What? No, no, no," Tricia suddenly gets worried.

     "C'mon Tricia, let them enjoy."

     Halley watched how their papa convinces their mama to let them race until her silliness acted up again.
