Farmer's Daughter

Chapter 2

Carrie's P.O.V.

I hate Harry. Maybe it's because of how he acts like he can get any girl he wants. Maybe because he is from the city. I don't know I just feel a strong hatred towards him. We are from two different worlds. He is from the city, I am most certainly not from the city. My thoughts have been interrupted when the door of the office is opened revealing Harry and my dad walking out.

"Thank you, sir. I can start Monday if you would like?" Harry said. Great atleast the farm will be normal for one more day until he comes and messes everything up.

"Yes, that would be greatly appreciated, Harry".

I walk towards them and put on the best fake smile I could muster just for my dad.

"Alright, thank you again for the job. Bye Mr. Davis" said Harry. My dad nodded in response before Harry turned on his heel and back to his car and sped down the gravel road.

"Don't you think we should have talked about this before you hired him?" I asked my dad more loudly than I intended.

"Well I knew you wouldn't want him but, honey, he's all we got. We need his help".

"I guess" is all I said before I left and headed to the horse barn. Whenever I was sad, mad, or hurt, I would always go to the horse barn and go for a ride on my favorite horse. Arizona Sky. I saddled her up and took her out to the pasture and rode down the trails. Arizona Sky is a beautiful brown bay horse, with black hair coating her legs.

As I rode down the trail I realized how dark it was getting. I took my phone out to check the time. 12:08. I looked at the sky and saw big dark grey clouds roll over the farm. Great. I turned around Arizona and hurried down the trail back to the barn. The thunder rolled over the barn just as Arizona and I made it safely got into the barn. I took her back into her pen and took the saddle off when I heard the violent rain pour down. I closed the barn doors and locked them and ran into the house to take shelter. You never know what storm is brewing up now. I got into the house to find my dad sitting on the couch watching the news with a map on the screen with light and dark green covering our town.

"They say it's not gonna be as bad as the one in the fall of 2006" my dad said in a calm tone, not even bothering to meet my gaze. I nodded my head and walked upstairs to my room and pulled out my laptop. I logged onto facebook and had a notification that I was tagged in a post.

Harry Styles
Can't wait to start work on Monday With Carrie from Maple Ridge farm!

I scoffed at the post. I'm gonna make him regret applying here if it's the last thing I can do. My thoughts were interrupted when a bolt of lightning struck down causing a big loud crashing sound. I started remembering what happened on October 21, 2006. As the nostalgia subsided I realised my cheeks were wet and the tears slid down my face like the rain drops on my window were right now. I let out a sob knowing I'll never see her again. The tears kept coming before I knew it, I was sobbing in my pillow. My eyes kept getting heavier and heavier and then everything went black and I fell into a dreamless sleep.
