Reopening

"Are you free this weekend, I need your help with something. " Jack asked Eric.

"Sorry maybe next time, am going to the grand opening of the Kennel farm," he said.

"What?"

"Tatiana is reopening her parents' farm this weekend and invited us to go attend the party," he said.

"But I wasn't invited"

Eric scoffed, "have some shame, Jack, why would she invite you to the same place you stole from her and destroyed"

"I... I didn't mean it that way" he said.

"You don't need to be there, it will only bring bad memories for her"

He sighed, "Have fun"

"Of course, I will" Eric got up and left his friend's office.

Jack stayed seated with a frown, "when will they stop rubbing it in"

....

"Thank you, guys,s for coming to my parent's reopening of their farm," Tatiana said.

"It looks the same, bestie," Patrica said.

She had bought all the things they had taken from the house before it was demolished back inside. She had contacted their old workers who were here more than happened to return those who were where here now older still requested to be given lighter jobs around the farm.

"So who is going to look after it?" Alex asked.

"One of my aunts volunteered to help, she used to help mom with the work around here before all that bad stuff happened," she said.

Eric and Mark were already drinking with the workers, as they tried to reach them how to handle the horses.

Tatiana and two friends walked around the green field, Patricia inhaled and smiled.

"I missed this," she said.

"We can come here every weekend to check on things and also relax," Tatiana said.

"I would too, it's so quiet, warm and fresh," Alex said.

"I want Gabriel to learn how to ride a horse like I did when I was his age. father always took me on rides every morning" she smiled.

"Then it will be done," Patricia said.

"But am not sure who will do the teaching, his two uncles are useless when it comes to horses and his mother's boyfriend is even worse" Alex laughed.

"Then I and his mother will teach him, we are the best horse riders in this place," Patricia said.

Eric walked over holding three bottles of beer.

"Tatiana yes, but you Patricia am afraid the horse might not want you to ride," he said.

Mark moved to Alex handing her a bottle. Eric gave one to Patrica and Tatiana.

"Look who is talking, the last time you got on to one, you almost screamed your lungs out. I think we know who is better at this" she said.

They laughed.

"I wasn't screaming, I was just telling you to slow down" he laughed.
