I quickly got ready with a blue jockey suit ,Luke had dropped off at my house last night. I ran downstairs where a plate of eggs sat on the table. "Well well well. Dont' you look cute," my mom said as she walked into the kitchen. "Momm. Thanks but please don't do that," I sat down and started on my eggs. "I'm sorry. It's just..you know how i act when i 'm nervous for you," she said. "Well ,you're making me even more nervous," I said with a mouth full of eggs. "Don't talk with your mouth full. No one wants to see chewed up eggs," my mom comanded.

When i was done with my eggs, I ran down to Luke's and made sure he had the trailer for the horses set up. The plan was for me and my mom to ride together and Luke and his dad to take the horses. I was expecially excited because my dad was going to be there. He had been on a business trip for a long long time. This is the first time in a long time I would get to see him. Luke already had Aslen and Diamond tied in the horse trailer and they were just about to leave. "Okay I'll meet you there. Goodluck," I said to Luke. He waved and i ran back to my house.

My mom was waiting in her car when i arrived. I hopped in and we started towards the Horse Derby. "You nervous?" she asked. "Majorly nervous, thanks again for letting them give me Aslen," I said. "No problem. I guessed i owed Aslen for saving you," she said.    "Owed him what?" I questioned her.           "I owed Aslen a sweet little girl for the rest of his days," she replied. I smiled. Then we sat in silence the rest of the way there.
