Chapter 84: Picasso is a Wild

After breakfast, Aurora and Aileen lead me down to their family's stables. There are five horses in total. Aurora introduces me to each in turn.

"So, this is Misty, Ali's horse."

Aileen's horse is a beautiful chestnut brown filly. She is an excitable horse, nudging me with her nose and trying to sniff out if I have any treats. Aileen starts saddling Misty up, and Aurora and I go into the stable so Aurora can get her own horse ready.

"Hi Polly," Aurora is cooing. "Should we introduce Landon to Picasso?"

Aurora leads Polly out into the yard, once she's saddled up and ready, and ties her to a post before returning into the stable for her father's horse.

"So, Picasso is a bit wild," she warns me with a wink.

"He's not going to like try to buck me off or anything though, right?"

She laughs politely. "He's a big old softy really. You have ridden before though, right?" She gives me a slightly concerned look.

"Yeah," I grin at her, "of course."
