Surprisingly, Mr. Crawford and I had a nice ride. I don't know why he didn't let Evan take me instead, but at least he didn’t say or do anything rude. I heard him mutter something to himself while we were riding, but he didn't make any sense as always. He said, ”I can't have another man close to you like that.” If I didn't know better, I’d think sounded like a jealous boyfriend wanting no other guy around his girlfriend.
We’re back at the stables. Mr. Crawford’s placing his horse, a black mustang, back in her place for the night. We’re about to leave when I hear voices outside. It’s Amber and Evan, and they’re arguing about something. Not wanting to ruin the moment, I decide to hang back and wait for them to finish while eavesdropping.
“It was a mistake. You should forget about it,” Amb
