Wild At Heart

Depressed

The next day at school, I am very hurt. Why did mom have to leave? I wondered.

BEEP BEEP BEEP

UGH!!!  Why do I have to wake up this early for something I don't even like? I sighed, and started to get ready for school.

I started getting dressed. I pondered. After scaning my clothes I finally dicided on what to wear. I choose a black sweater, with a gold horseshoe charm necklass, light blue jeans and some black flats. Sadly the golden horshoe necklass doesn't bring any luck. None yet at least. After getting dressed, I went to the kitchen to get breakfast because my mom always makes me breakfast before school. I walked into the kitchen and usally I say hi to mom then eat my breakfast. But, Today there is no one in the kitchen. Only a plain box of cereal, instead of homemade fresh, warm ready food. This made me miss mom even more. I munched on the dry cereal, we were all out of milk and orange juice. So I just drank some cold water to go with my milk-less cereal. I went to put my bowl in the sink. Then I spotted a note.

Dear Kat, I will miss you. Your father and I thought it would be better if you stayed with him, being around horses will help you get over this. I know how iportant horses are to you, So I got you this gift. Please love it and when you look at it, remeber that I will always be with you. Give Misty a sugar cube for me!    ~ Love Mom ~

I re read the letter two times, she even used my nickname Kat. I unwapped the gift. It was a silver charm braclet. One charm was a heart, the other was a running horse, and then the last charm was two horses touching noses. I smiled and a tear ran down my cheek. I quickly wiped it away as my dad walked in. 

" Oh so you found the gift." My dad said looking at the braclet. I couldn't speak without crying.

" Kat its all right, come here." My dad gave me a hug. Tears started coming, I couldn't hold them back any longer. 

" Dad, can I give Misty a sugar cube before I leave?" I said whle siffling. 

" As long as your all ready for school." My dad watched me close the door. 

I ran out to the barn. Misty was in the third stall. She was my mom's favorite horse, they had an amazing conection. One day, I want my own horse and have the bond that they had. I kissed Misty's mussle. She looked concerned. Misty let out a soft nicker. I rubbed her cheek.

" Misty mom is gone, and never coming back." I handed her a sugar cube. She started crunching on it, listening to what I was saying.

" Misty, the reason mom is never coming back is because....." I took a deep breath to keep my voice steady. " They gotten divorced." Misty bummped me with her nose seeing if I had anymore treats.

" Mom wanted me to give you the sugar cube. Well I will see you after school. I would rather not go but, mom would have wanted me to go." I gave Misty one last kiss and left for school. 

I sat in the bac of the bus, hoping no one would notice me. I just wanted to float away as if I was a feather. Christy saw me and smiled sitting across from me. 

" Oh my gosh, what happened? You never cry! Kat?" Her pale blue eyes scanned my face. There is that nickname again. Now it seems if all I do is cry. 

" I don't want to talk about it, leave me alone." I faced my back to her and watched all the houses zoom by.

" But I just want to help! Kat, please tell me. Why don't you trust me? I trust you! I want to help." I didn't anwser her. " Kat! Please tell me! Is it about me? If I did anything wrong... I am sorry, I feel so bad! I didn't mean to upset you." I turned facing Christy. My anger started bubbling.
