fierce and forgiving:second chances

chapter 27

     I woke up to the sound of blaring sirenes,by now you would be expecting me to get used to this stuffs, loud noises,waking up early but am not,am so close to running away from this crack house,its fun and all but I miss home.
     I grudgingly got up from bed to freshen up,my ankle still hurt but its definitely better I got changed into skinnies and a polo shirt since we were going horse back riding,at least I think that's what we are gonna do,I don't expect us to just go there to view the horses,I styled my hair into a ponytail so that when the horse gallops it will bounce.

"Someone looks grumpy" Alexia said all dressed up as I stepped back in the cabin,all the other girls were busy getting ready.I glared at her and she raised her hands in surrender.
 
   We headed to the cafeteria ate and boarded our rented boss to the polo,I sat beside the window and surprisingly Alexia didn't seat with me,like she was saving the space for someone and that someone happened to be Eddy, those two conspiring arghhh,I glanced at him and gave her a questioning look and she mouthed you can thank me later before giving me two thumbs up.

      We got to the polo in no time and I could see horses from afar and they were beautiful,I saw a golden brown horse,a cute little pony doing some horse training I guess,we headed towards a ringish kinda thing were three horses were waiting....woah it looks nothing like I imagined,it is definitely bigger and taller with those mighty hoofs,I feared for my life one kick from that thing and the person is a goner. The instructor gave us like basic rules like to never kick the side of a horse if you don't want it galloping,always use the reigns because it restrains it,don't pull at its mane,be tender and not aggressive towards it.

"Everybody is gonna ride,no excuses" Mrs Carmen said smiling
      Everyone started taking turns riding,it seemed easy like in the telenovelas, every time it got closer to my turn I always went back, I know I can't run away forever and the line would come to an end but I don't mind delaying my death,all the enthusiasm from earlier were all gone.
It was my turn but I was practically shitting myself,I was scared to touch the animal talk less of riding it,

"There's no fucking way am getting on that thing,not even if you carry me" I told Ralph who was trying to convince me
"But what if there's a stampede,am as good as dead" I told him

"There can't be a stampede ,they are trained animals Beth" Ralph said already frustrated with me
I saw Alexia on the other horse she nodded to me and that kinda gave me courage,I was told to put my leg in the loop of the saddle and swing myself over, it was kinda difficult but I did it anyways, I felt taller but I was still shaking then when it started moving it was like I was sitting on a moving butt,I held on to the reigns for my dear life,I  wasn't that bad for a first timer and I don't regret riding it even tho am not getting any close to another horse later.

The journey home wasn't bad,I was over my jealousy tantrum so me and Eddy are cool

"You did pretty well today" Eddy said giving me a small smile as we got ogg the bus

"Yea right,that's why you laughed all through my ride" I said scoffing

"You should have seen your face,you looked like you were gonna pass out" he said chuckling

"Heyy,not fair" I said elbowing his side

"What did you do that for and life isn't fair cute face" he said rubbing the place I hit him
     We headed to the cafeteria and ate our hearts out,we were famished and minutes later we found ourselves in the conference hall,a motivational speaker would be talking about letting go is a fancy word for ignoring your pain,work through the pain.
     Well this should be intresting I thought to myself as we were sitted in a circular manner
