Blue Moon- Chapter Eight: Julie stared in disbelief. A medium height woman wearing a casual riding outfit stared back. Her hair was tied tightly in a bun and not a single hair was loose and she had bright red lipstick on. She was frowning and a lead rope hung from her hand. " I see you have brought out her...", the woman nodded in the direction of Blue. Her eyes were hard and her face showed utter disgust, but she continued speaking, this time with suprising praise, " You've done well for a new rider. How many days in? None the less, we can only accept the best at our riding school and we don't have room for a horse we can't ride. ". Julie watched as the woman approached Blue. She placed a hand on the mare's rump and stalked down her side. She grabbed a hold of the halter and stared at Blue. Julie watched, biting her lip. She barely knew Blue, but she knew, somehow knew, she would be scared. " I will ride her, here and today! You,", the woman looked at Julie, " You will get me the tack. She doesn't need a brushing.". Julie looked blankly at the woman. She raised her hand to her face, staring at her wrist. " I actually have to go now. Sorry!", she excused herself and rushed out the barn doors, but she stopped when she had gone halfway. Now she peeped her head in and watched the scene play out. ~~~~~~~~ All Writing is by TheGoldenBit Cover art by @JustAFjordHorse
