Hello my dear Readers.
How have you been?
I did not forget to post the
Random Saturday #14 yesterday. I got it ready, almost ready to upload, just to realize
I have no internet. Taking internet connection from the phone didn't do the
trick, so I postponed the R.S. 14 for today.
I also had another topic in mind
for R.S.14, but today I got a sudden inspiration to write a short story. I used
to love to write, and still write stories from time to time, but this will the
first one the world will see. Enjoy J
The Girl and the Horse she never owned
There once lived a girl who fell
in love with a horse she never owned. They met by accident, or by fate, and a
strong friendship between them begun. They spent each morning together. The
girl would come to the stable, say good morning to the horse, share her morning
apple with the horse. She would groom the horse, while telling her news. She
would ride the horse, where the horse would teach her to be patient, respectful
and understand without words.
The girl didn't have a home she
could call her own. She didn't have many human friends, didn't have any fancy
clothes or habits. She didn't care about loud companies, flirting with boys or
trying to find a husband and built a family. The girl didn't dream to become
rich and powerful. All the girl needed was that white horse she really loved.
The girl shared with the horse
her deepest secrets, her happy moments and her regrets. She would confess to
the horse what she was really afraid of. When she didn't want to spend time
with the humans, she would hide in the horse's stable and read her book, or
just look at the beautiful white horse. The horse didn't mind having the girl
around. Although the horse didn't understand much from what the girl would say,
the horse was kind enough to make the girl feel like she had the best listener to
talk to. The horse always let the girl cry on her shoulder, and never told
anyone that the girl cried.
And while the girl's and the
horse's bond grew stronger, the girl and the horse got separated. As unexpected
as their meeting was, their separation was expected even less. The girl could
not see the horse anymore. The girl could not groom the horse anymore, nor ride
the horse. She didn't have her friend to tell her secrets, or a shoulder to cry
on. The girl was devastated…
But there was nothing she could
do, as she never owned the horse…
The girl decided not to love
again someone that wasn't her. The girl decided to forget about horses all
together. She got married, then she got divorced. She moved far away and got a
good job. She would buy beautiful clothes and drink cocktails at a bar. She would
laugh at stupid jokes and take selfies with her friends. But nothing filled the
void.
She never could forget the horse
completely. At nights, she would lay in her bed, in the dark, and think about
the beautiful white horse. She would wonder if her friend would remember her,
if they would ever met again. Would the horse still let her share all her
secrets? Would the horse want to hear all the stories the girl had to tell?
So the girl decided to wait, the
girl decided to hope, that one day she would be reunited with the horse, and
she would once again have her best friend by her side. She went back to working
with horses, and found some new good friends. She would tell to the other horse
about her beautiful white horse she never owned.
When those really sad days would
come, the girl would look through the pictures of her beloved white horse, and dream
of the moment she would be able to see her again. That thought made her smile
and she did.
The
end.
That's all J
Thank you very much for reading!
I wish you a great beginning of the week.
