Spirit Riding Free

Chapter Four

"And yeah, that's basically all of Miradero. It's a small town but it's full of surprises," Turo said while shrugging.

"Definitely not what I thought it would be like. I thought it would be a boring town full of crazy people," I stated nonchalantly. And it was true. I was slowly falling in love with this town. It was full of character.

"Do you ride horses?" Turo asked.

"Yeah, I have two mares of my own", I said while thinking about Angel and Dakota. I couldn't wait for them to arrive tomorrow.

"Cool. Anyway, I have to go. I have some friends I'm meeting up with. Seah tomorrow at school," Turo yelled back while running towards three girls.

Mentally face-palming I think about school. I had forgotten all about it. Muttering under my breath, I turn around and slowly start to make my way back home, looking at all the small shops that looked so friendly and inviting and the never-ending fields that were covered in daisies and other flowers. Reaching my door, I open it and walk inside. I stop shocked at the window. I hadn't realised how late it was. Hearing plates being set on the table I was suddenly hit by a wave of a delicious scent. 'Mhmmm, Mac & Cheese,' I thought to myself while my mouth started watering. Strolling into the kitchen, I sit at the bench, just in time to have my plate placed in front of me.

"Thanks Mum, this smell's divine," I groan while already putting food in my mouth.

"Slow down and eat your food like a proper lady," my mother scolds.

Finishing dinner, I kiss my mother on the head while putting my dishes in the sink.

"I'm gonna head to bed Mum, Goodnight," I say while turning back around.

"Goodnight Bryn remember you have school in the morning," my mother replies.

Rolling my eyed I head to my bedroom. How could I forget I have school tomorrow? It is one of the things that most kids can agree they hate. Getting changed into some loose shorts and a shirt I climb into bed, wondering what tomorrow could bring. Well, that and figuring out ways to fill in those potholes. At this rate I was definitely going to break an ankle.

/// IM SORRY!!! I tried so hard to be able to post before Saturday but I just got caught up with assignments. I promise I did not forget about the story. I am going to try and post a new chapter every Saturday or Sunday. Anyway, I am running out of ideas for the story, so I would like to know what you all want to happen in the next chapter. It would help so much. ///
