Taz pressed her heels firmly into the bay's sides as she rode Miles out of the ring and towards the trails. Today was such a nice day, it seemed a shame not to take a nice trail ride, espically with a friend! Well, Taz wasn't really sure if she was friends with Ellissa, and her big warmblood Sin, yet, but she sure hoped she was, even though the girl was a few years older than her. All her years riding here, and Taz really hadn't made too many friends. It seemed no one in town wanted to hang out with the poor girl with the crazy horse. Just as Taz turned around to say something to Ellissa, her phone inturrupted her with an angry buzz. Taz yanked the phone out of her pocket and answered.
"Hello?" Taz paused for a moment then continuted. "Oh, Mom." Pause "Where am I? At the barn." Pause "Uh, yeah, I'm on right now, can I call you back-" The woman on the other end of line shouted something foul at Taz, and Taz halted her horse and rolled her eyes at Ellissa with a frown, then mouthed the word 'sorry'. "What, Mom, I just can't drop everything and leave! I have to take care of my horse! Mom, I swear, this is your problem, figure it out!!" Taz ran a hand through her loose black hair under her helmet and cursed under her breath. Her mom was throwing a temper tantrum, AGAIN, about the cost of keeping a horse. They could hardly make ends meet as it was, her mom complained, without having a big hunk of horse to pay for. But Taz would absolutely not let her mom sell Miles. He was hers, hers and her last connection to her dad. She was not going to give him up, and she would fight as hard as she had to in order to keep him.
Taz hit the 'End Call' button in the middle of her mom's rant, and switched her phone off, fully knowing she would pay for her desicion later. Oh well. Taz just wasn't in the mood to deal with her mom right now. Twisting back in the saddle, Taz turned to Ellissa. "Man, am I sorry about that! Parents... geez! So, how about we head out onto the fields? I love it out there."
WORD COUNT - 415
NOTES - Hey Ellissa!
