"Wait, So your name is Jeong-in."
"Yup, though I think we'd both prefer Luko a bit more."

Three friends (Nina, Tori, and Alice) are spending the summer riding their horses when they find out a secret, whic...
It's summer again. I'm scared of what might happen, and stress is taking over my brain. My family and I decided to visit our old summer house again to get some fresh air and that so I can hang out with the twins, which even my mom knows that those two can easily help me cope.
And, they kinda do. I still can't believe that I'm actually in the same house years back. It doesn't even feel like it's been that long, but it has. "Hey Nina, do you wanna come with us to the stables for a bit?" asked Jaemin. "Jae, you know I don't ride as much as I used to because of-" "yeah yeah yeah, because of getting ready for college so ya don't listen to 'fairytales' anymore." My eyes widened by his remark.
"Ok fine." I said as I then put on my boots before heading out the door with the twins, Jeno was holding my hand because I am a slow runner even if my adhd picks me back up.
"What about Yunho-" "Yunho can wait, you can kiss him later." I look at the twins before seeing that we were at the stables again. "He's not my boyfriend." I said. "Yet your blushing." The twins replied to me. I sighed as I helped them out in the stables before sitting up in a haystack and taking out my sketchbook to finally finish that portrait of a girl and her horse, wasn't that my grandma?
I was drawing peacefully when something or someone randomly tapped me. "Eh? Jeno, you don't scare me." The thing tapped me again. "Jeno." "Girl, do I look like I'm Jeno? And Lix, don't tap her with your head." A girl said to me as I looked up. "What in the-" the girl paused, she looks familiar too but that red hair there.
"Ally?!" "Hey- OH MY GOD, NINA, HI!" Ally then jumped off of her horse as I finally recognized that it was Felix. He actually seemed to get a little taller. Ally had a pretty big change as she was wearing bell bottom pants and a turquoise green tan top.
"Well this is strange." "Life is strange." Ally replied as we high fived. We both then heard neighing in the background and . . . . . . . is that neighing or a bear cub?
"Wanna check it out?" "Ally, I don't ride anymore." I said. "I'll just run-" "Nina, you do realize that I am much faster then you and that my back is fine." said Felix as he turned straight to human. He looked way different then before. He still had freckles and slightly soft features but now he has a lot more muscle then he's given! Looking like freaking Channie now.
"You've still got a riding spirit in you, I know it." he finished. "PAKO, YOU STUPID CRAZY SIBLING OF MINE!!!" "AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" we all then looked at eachother as Felix then turned back into a horse. "On second thought, ya got a second seat?" "With popcorn." I looked at Ally for a bit. "Your used to this?" "You'd be surprised of what happened." said Ally.
We both rod on Felix as we then made it all the way to the paddock where two little kids were fighting as the younger one was being dragged by feet by the older one. The younger started screaming for older one to put them down as ut seemed to be a girl with pure white hair.
"YOU IDIOT, WE HAVE. THE SAME. FACE!!!" "I SAID, PUT ME DOWN BEFORE GET DAD TO- hi Auntie Ally." The girl said. "Your an auntie?" I asked. "I mean~" Ally began. I looked at the kids, they looked really familiar until a low voice called out to them. "Lua, Xiao Xiao, why are you fighting again?!" It seemed to be the father.
The little kids explained their argument as the father just really couldn't hold his laughter, but he kept a tiny bit of a serious face and told the older boy of how to respect his sister like he does to his mother. "And your getting another sister too, so you shouldn't be like this. You should be protecting her, not fighting her. Don't do that again ok? Jesus, your worse then me and your uncle Xuanlong." "Tao?" I asked.
"That's my name- NINA?! HOLY CRAP!" "Daddy, you cursed!" the little girl said as the father shook his head no. "Crap isn't a curse word Lua." He gently protested.
"Anyways, mind the kids. Nina, look at you!!!" Tao said, putting the random argument on hold. I was still a bit shocked that Tao now has kids who can talk. "Also, kids what did I tell you about the cursing? Better question, who did you learn that from?!" "Uncle Changbin." The kids answered. We all looked them for a bit. Tao facepalmed. "Straight to your Uncle Chan, we gotta teach you both a lesson." "But-" Tao's eyes then went wide as the kids laughed, but they did listen in the end.
"Heh, sorry about them." "It's really ok, BUT WHEN DID YOU HAVE KIDS?!" I asked in shock. "Well~ a few years ago." Tao answered with a smile. "And another on the way." "Rosie! Careful hun!~" Tao said while holding his wife from behind. "You both really grew I see, especially you Nina. I know that it might sound cheesy and Tao already said it~" said Rosè. "Just, say it." said Ally. "You've gotten so big!~" the three girls then hugged before me and Ally got bounced off by Rosie's baby bump.
"I-" "girl, you already have a baby bump?!" I shouted. Rosie nodded as I'm pretty sure she was holding her laughter. "Give me a moment." "K." said Felix. "JESUS. MOTHER. FREAKINGM CHRIST!!! HOW THE FLYING HELL DID I MESS ALL OF THIS?! IT FEELS LIKE A WEEK!!!" "NINA, IT'S FOUR YEARS, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!" The two aussies were busy eating popcorn while Tao and I were kinda yelling at eachother before Ally stopped us, thank God.
"Don't do that. Or I'm getting Zenzi." "Speaking of, you should really see her." said Tao. "Wait, whatever happened?" "Well, she has muscles, literally is now a black belt champion, and-" we soon reached the herd tree house as I was a bit surprised that was bigger then before.
We then went inside to see Seungmin talking to Jisung. "Yes, and that's because of the insanity that is literally for the sake- GIRLS!!!" Jisung said. "What do mean Han- HEY!" Seungmin replied as he chased Jisung while Jisung went in to straight up tackle me!
It was crazy, everyone looked a lot more mature but what stuck out like a sore thumb was their personalities cause they were still themselves even if they got older.
I guess that would be for me too. "Soooooo~ Ni, what did you think of that butterfly kiss?" Seungmin asked as Jeong-in froze and started blushing. "Wait, that's what it was?!" I asked. "Yeah, that kind of interaction wasn't really used unless it's the first time that you celebrate your rider's birthday." Chan explained. "So, we're the first ones to ever get one for how long?" "I think about three or five centuries." Tao answered calmly. "And yes I did do one with Rosie at least three times. Nina, are you ok?" I nodded.
My face felt really warm and I got embarrassed. "There's really nothing to be embarrassed about, you don't lock lips or anything. Heck, it's not even romantic unless you do it three times." I shook it off as my hair swung around. "Also, here you dropped this." Jeong-in said as he handed me my scrapbook. I thanked him while opening it up as we all looked inside.
There were so many memories, photos, little notes, and even horse and paw prints on some pages if you looked closely. Though, what stuck out was the last page which showed a finished portrait of the same one that I drew at the celebration. "Who finished this?" I asked. We didn't really know who did, but I don't think we have too cause just by looking at it~
It was all beautiful.
