What.. just happened?
He came out of his room, I heard it.
But he never said anything to me. Not even a "hello".
I didn't ask for this either.
I don't want to be alone. I can't be alone.
"Take me to Linda." I tell Spirit.
Riding feels different now. Strange, unfamiliar. It used to feel like my horse and I were one being. Now it feels like Spirit's just guiding me. Like I'm on a trail he's worked for years.
But I'm not. I'm his person. I'm his Soul Rider.
Can I even be a Soul Rider anymore?
I know logically I can. It's not like I'm paralyzed.
But I can't see, and I can't speak.
Seeing and speaking is all I've ever known.
I would have stuck around to take advice from Rania. I can't talk to her, but I can listen, and that's enough.
But she told me to come back later, and so I will.
It was awkward, anyway.
I don't know where we are. I give Spirit a few kicks, willing him to run as fast as he can.
When he picks up speed, I drop his reins and hug his neck. I don't even have to ride anymore, really.
How can I be a Soul Rider like this?
