In the morning, the sun inclined in the sky. The air was brimmed with the aroma of wild flowers and devised a cool ambiance in the tumblewood town. Michael with a book in his hand, settled in his cosy shack. A lantern sprinkled through the page . Michael was engrossed in the dreams of the book. Abruptly, a little boy with a mischievous grin hopped in a shack and uttered "mister michael, mister Austin has summoned you." Michael with an emerald glin in his eyes, redirected the gaze towards a boy and stood with a leisurely way. With a wide smile uttered "I reckon, I'm a-comin' boy." Michael snugly deposited his book beneath the pillow. Michael brimmed charmly and beckoned charmly towards the food "I've cooked breakfast you can gobble it up." A young boy nodded and Michael approached his white sparkling horse, caressed the horse snugly; he felt the cosiness of horse's mane beneath his fingertips. He deposited his cowboy shoes on the stirrups and mounted the horse in a gentle way. Michael imperceptibly propelled the horse as he swifted the swirling cloud of dust flourished by a haze. The houses,saloons and butcher shop surrounded Michael as he rode his horse, the aroma of crisp and sour meat engulfed in the air. Michael halted his horse in front of a bar, he gently dismounted from his horse and hitched the horse gracefully to a nearby fence. He strode towards the bar. The wood cracked as he took steps along with cowboy shoes he firmly gripped the swinging door and as he entered, Michael's sight was captivated by the vibrant sight of Austin. The clinking glasses and melody 🎶 echoed through the bar, the cowboys laughs bustled the bar. As Michael approached Austin with a grin, Michael perched on a seat with his amigos. Austin uttered with a frim brim, "Howdy partner, care to join us for a drink."Michael nodded and Austin gracefully opened the whisky bottle with a force and commenced to brim it, the Amber hue reflected through the glass. Michael with his firm veins pulled the glass towards him and gradually took a sip from it. Austin's Amber eyes glisten, as he uttered with a brimmed face of an anticipation "reckon, we've to hop to Blackwater Town tomorrow at sunrise.we all michael and Bill. Mosey up to my place tomorrow at sunrise we'll travel together." Michael intervened with a mischievous grin on his face, his emerald eyes glistening,"what all will be doin' there, amigo." Bill sitting leaned forward and uttered with a mischievous grin in his face "partner, there is a rip roarin' party happenin' in black water Michael with a nod and gleam in his eyes nodded and agreed to join. Michael lingered there for a long time having drinks with Bill and Austin. Their laughter engulfed the bar. He opted to leave and uttered with an anxious "amigo, it's late I've gotta go."With his cowboy hat he approached the door and firm gripped the swinging door as he walked towards the horse he perceived that the trading post before him his cowboy hat devised a silhouette over his green glisten eyes. He approached the trading post. He swung open the door and the aroma of delightful leather adorned the shop. He perceived a cool cowboy jacket for a buckaroo. His eyes widened towards its exquisite beauty he briskly plucked the Western jacket. And with a briskly stride, he apprised a seller in an exhilarating tone with a wide smile" how much for that jacket, mister." The seller uttered an thrilled tone "ohh Michael Mccarty that's nice to see you mister that will cost you 30$ partner." Michael with a twinkle in his eyes, that's a hefty price for cowboy jackson." He bestowed a mischievous grin and haggled with a seller "How about knocking a few bucks off mister." With a cunning smile, seller uttered "let's mister for u that's 15$." Michael with a wide smile in his face and his eyes sparkled with contentment. He charmly pulled out a 15 bucks and uttered "thanks mister here you're." With a jacket in his hand he made his way to the door he pulled the swinging door, the door thudded and the voice echoed through the air "come back again mister." Michael took a deep breath and turned his gaze and beamed charmly he strode over his horse and deposited the jacket in his horse's saddle. He deposited his cowboy shoes on stirrups and gently mounted the horse.
