"Com?! So Nott's your brother?" "Half brother." "So he tricked you?" James looks uncomfortable. "No. His wife. She didn't care that I'm her half brother in law. She didn't want me working there. When my brother found out, he agreed. That's what hurts the most." "Oh wow. James, I'm so sorry." "Don't be. It's not your fault. But I meant what I said earlier. Go back to your house." "Fine. My name's Sophie by the way." There's a teasing glint in his eye. "And your last name?" "Foster. Sophie Foster." He smiles. "It suits you." "Thanks. Now I should find my way back. Good luck." "Thanks, you too." She blinks and he's gone. Oh well. Time to find a track. But first she see's something glittering on the sidewalk. It's a coin. For two dollars! She picks it up and walks over to an information booth she saw yesterday. Surprisingly it's open! She buys a map of the town. There's a high school track twenty minutes away. She groans slightly and starts the walk.

Twenty minutes later, she's there. There's a huge sign saying 'private property. GO AWAY'. She ignores it. There's not even a gate keeping her away. Talk about easy! She starts at the starting line and pictures Grady and Edaline's house. Her house. Then she runs. A minute later she stumbles and she's lying in alicorn manure.
