Hailey
"but it can't be" Amy said. I nodded "but its true" "how do you know?" "no horse that young could survive with out their mother for even a couple hours let alone weeks." Amy dropped her gaze her head hanging low. She knew I was right but she didn't want to believe it, neither did I." Amy I know you feel defeated, I do to, but we can't do anything now" "your right" she said looking back up at me "I just wish I could of" "me too." Amy stood and gave me a hug. Wiping her eyes with the back of her hand. "you think you can get back to sleep?" she asked "yeah, I think so" "alright, good night."
I woke up the next morning not quite as tired as yesterday, but still tired. I got out of bed, grabbed some cloths and headed to the bathroom for a shower. When I got to there tho I realized 'how am I supposed to take a shower with a bullet hole in my shoulder?' (the bullet hole wasn't quite in my shoulder, it was in my chest just below my collar bone on the left side, but close enough ) I decided to just take a bath, I hate baths it makes me feel like I'm never clean like I'm sitting in my filth but I have to get "clean" some how.
Once I was "clean" and dressed, I went down stairs. Amy was just finishing up breakfast when I entered. "morning Hailey" she said not needing to turn around to know it was me "morning" "did you sleep good, after ,you know?" "yeah, the rest of the night was nightmare free" "good." Papa came down a minute later. "mmmmm, is that bacon I smell?" he said sitting at the table next to me. "yep" Amy said placing a plate in front of both of us, then getting one for herself. Amy sat down and we prayed. "hey Amy, has Ty gotten here yet?" Papa asked. My heart skipped at the mention of his name. 'stop that' I scolded myself. "no not yet, but I'm sure he'll be here soon" Amy answered. Papa nodded and continued eating.
After breakfast Amy and I cleared the table and Papa washed the dishes. Then I went to watch TV. A couple minutes after I sat down I heard someone pull put to the house. I knew it was Ty and I wanted to jump up and run to the window, but I forced myself to stay on the couch.' If Ty wanted to see me he would come in' I told myself.
After an hour of watching boring TV shows I turned the TV off. Expecting it to be completely silent, I was surprised to hear the light piter pater of rain.
I went to the window and looked out over the land. I stood there for a couple minutes watching the rain. Once I was able to pull myself away from the window I found myself heading to the kitchen. I walked to the door and reached for the handle when I finally came back. 'What am I doing?' I didn't know. I didn't think to hard about and opened the door. Letting my feet carry me where ever they wanted. I stopped at the stairs wondering why I felt the need to go outside in the rain. Granet I do love the rain but I had stitches in so I really didnt think it was a good idea. I didn't wait long before my feet pulled me into the rain and toward the barn
