Rivals
Lean had stood there for a while, frozen
As if she had been the one getting whacked.
Her brain, however, seems to have chosen
The option not to react.
A move in the distance -
She snapped out of her trance;
And met a killing glance.
"Ali! She yelped half glad, half surprised,
So it's true! Welcome back!"
The other woman didn't bother to reply,
Yet stared at her, arms crossed,
As if Lean had been about to hurt her horse.
"What do you want?" Highride Ali snapped.
"Just checking..." Her voice trailed off.
"Your rivals' pet's only? So, so."
