As we rode along neither of us said anything until we reached the edge of the city. We only rode for about an hour and a half. When reached this point we both got off the horse and he let her free. " What are you doing?! Your going to get your horse killed!" He laughs at this, and I get a little irritated by this. "What's so funny this time?!"
"Well horses aren't dogs and she can get home from here. Don't worry, she will make it home alive." We walk for awhile 'till we reach an airport. I really hope he can back me up with the cash that I don't have. When we make it to the counter and the lady asked us where we were going, I turned to Ethan and whispered " We need to go to New York City but I only have enough money for one ticket. Do you have any money for your own ticket?" He just quietly chuckled And turned towards the lady at the counter.
"My sister and I would like two tickets to New York City, here's the cash." I see him slap down $110 onto the counter. " Is there enough there? I hope so because that's all we got for the whole trip." Now I began to see his bluffing, he was trying to make her feel sorry so we didn't have to pay that much. I hoped just as much as he did that it worked.
" Oh Honey, well, I have to follow the code. But I guess I can just give you these." She hands Ethan two plane tickets to New York City, along with the $110 dollars Ethan put down previously. "Now go get on your plane dears."
Ethan smiles, "Thank you," and we head off to our plane and next thing you know we are on our plane to New York City.
