CHAPTER 3
At weeks end she was
able to move around again she was still happy. But then the time came when she
was able to ride.
Mallory
and Ty came over with Spartan and with a few tries Amy awes on
it and she led a simple trot.
"oh my, I forgot how
much I missed this!" Amy exclaimed.
"Um Amy?"
Mallory asked unstably.
"Yes Mallory what's
up?" Amy asked.
"well, I was
wondering if I could use Spartan for show jumping. I got
this course It is like every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday around
noon, it's a little book I have," Mallory asked, " So may I?"
"Sure Mallory if
you muck the stall after words," Amy agreed.
"okay, I'll
leave you, seems like Lou’s going out again, oh you two feel a little
cold you two usually have a lot of warmth not right now" Mallory replied,
she walked back to the cottage like house.
For a minute there
was a weird awkward silence.
"SO, I was
wondering do you want to go on a trail ride, Doc Carter said \I could?" Amin asked.
"Sure I'm up to
it, Just give me second or a minute," Ty scampered
Ty got Harley and
quickly grabbed a saddle and zapped it on and trotted over to the Amy.
"So, which
trail, river or smooth plains where we usually find the wild
horses?" Amy asked.
"How about the
smooth plains,” Ty replied as they headed up the gravel road, „Well,
You know because we cannot chase them because....”
“Ya, I know why, “Amy
replied casually.
Then a big grey truck
came it was Chase.
"Chase..."
Ty gritted.
Chase stepped out of
the vehicle.
"Why, hello
Amy.... what happened to you? " Chase asked.
"Unbroken horse,
sorry I am not accepting business right now especially with you! so
if that’s it id appreciates it if you left," Amy
replied.
"No, actually I
was here to see about Soraya," Chase replied., " We need
to talk about our relationship."
"No, and she has
a boyfriend in London where she is living at the moment so she's a no go for
you, " Amy replied.
"well, then how
about you?" Chase asked smiling.
"She's my fiancé,"
Ty replied, " In 3 months we are married."
"Well, that’s too
bad for you, Amy he's a waste of your time" He replied with a smirk, "Chase powers out!"
He hopped into
his vehicle and sped up, leaving Amy and Ty in the dust.
"Wow, he's
really a jerk, and not to mention stuck up" Amy replied.
"Only now you
realize that?" Ty said smirking.
Amy punched him in
the side softly.
Amy
and ty started down the trail, having a pretty good time.
'I’m sorry Ty,"
Amy confessed out of nowhere.
"Sorry for what,
Amy," Ty asked curiously.
"For being such
a horrible fiancé," She remarked, " Everything about
chase and Ahmed, I have loved you all along, but I don't know
why but I have attracted about myself to guys and I like them s friends not
anything else. You are in my heart, the only one!"
"Amy, it’s not
your fault they were attracted to you. You were not attracted to them, "
Ty remarked staring at his fiancé, " Just remember to tell
them about me, your fiancé.,
"On that matter,
our original wedding date is still the same, you know because your
casts and bandages come off a week and a half before the wedding and we should
get Lou to help us, you know," Ty explained.
"Great,
then everything’s sorted," Amy replied with a smile.
They had a blast
talking and laughing, so hard that Amy’s ribs hurt. But,
every good journey has to end, and they headed to the barn
where Amy was heavily lifted off Spartan and spa tan was
dragged into his stall, Amy and ty walked together to
the cottage like house.
"I won’t be able
to stay I have a whole pile of things to get done, " Ty said.
"That’s fine
but Lou will set you a place and I’ll talk to Lou about
the arrangements,” Amy said, they were now at the front door, “ sees you later."
Amy wheeled herself
into the house. Lou was on the phone in the kitchen, and then
she and then she abruptly ended the calls.
"Hi, Amy!"
Lou called.
"Hi Lou, Ty land
I were talking and we need help with the wedding can you help can you help us
without taking over?" Amy asked.
"I would love to
help with my sister’s wedding!" She replied excited
"Ty and I will go
through everything, and tell you tomorrow or the next day.is
that okay? " Amy told her.
"Great,"
Lou said, returning to her housework.
Amy wheeled over to her
bedside and lay down, drifting into a soothing leg sleep.
When she awoke from
her sleep it was afternoon just before four.
AMY HOPPED into her
wheelchair, and wheeled right in from of her dresser, she struggled
to get up but she did, taking off her rib bandage, she saw how bad it was her ribs
all red, blue purple and a light brown, it was nasty. She called Lou
over, "Lou can you come over here for a second?"
Lou came over and she
showed Lou her wound, "Lou I think it needs to breath can I take
the bandage off, just till I sleep when sleep it will be put back
on," Amy asked.
"Yeah, it looks
like we should do that, and try to walk a little your leg with these crutches
it doesn't look like much fun," Lou replied.
"Yeah, Lou It’ll be
hard, Katie can probably crawl faster than I can walk!" Amy
remarked.
"Amy that's fine
plus you should just start using it partially you have your faithful wheelchair
over here, just use your crutches for now," Lou remarked passing Amy the
crutches.
"OK I guess,
“Amy answered leaning forward to take a step, "Lou, what kind of
people do you need in a wedding?"
"Well, you'll
need a pastor, a bride of honour, a couple bridesmaids, a best man, and
some other men as well, a flower girl which is optional a ring bearer which is
also optional, and also someone to walk you down the aisle, you can either
do both or only one, just be careful both of them can get mad," Lou
explained helping Amy take a few steps down the hall .
"By the
way ty should be coming for dinner a you can set a place
for him," Amy told Lou, looking at her older sister.
"Great I'll hop
to it, " Lou remarked ruining into the kitchen, leaving Amy on
her own a few steps from the couch.
Amy slowly took a few
steps, crouch to the edge of the couch, sliding her onto the couch, taking a
deep breath and switching the TV on.
She listened to the
news, something about taxes going up about 0.07%, after an hour of
watching the television and Lou toying on her computer
while her chicken cooked. She got bored of the news and settled down for a
nice western magazine with her name in the front cover.
