A Comfort For Kristi Part 2
"It's a letter from Lisa, but wait... why would she be writing to me?" Kristi asked, more to herself than to Chelsea.
Kristi silently read the letter from Lisa.
"Well, what does Lisa say in her letter?" Chelsea asked Kristi, she interested to know.
So, Kristi decided to read her letter out loud.
Kristi: Dear Kristi,
How are you doing?
Stevie, Carole, and I are all fine.
Rafael is back in Sweet Water with his mother, and I miss him, I know you would miss him too if you were here.
Write back,
Lisa.
"Well," Chelsea said to Kristi. "it would seem that Lisa & her friends in the Saddle Club are doing well."
"That they are, Chelsea," Kristi agreed. "and I am so glad to hear that they are."
At that moment, Chelsea saw Kristi push her plate from herself on the table and stand up, "Where are you going?" she asked.
"To my room to reply to Lisa's nice letter, maybe she & the Saddle Club will consider being friends with me." Kristi answered Chelsea.
Kristi quickly ran up to her bedroom.
Over at the Atwood residence, Lisa was dressing in her riding attire so she wouldn't be tardy for her riding lesson with Stevie & Carole.
"Lisa! Hurry up," a voice called out. "Jess has been waiting for me all morning!"
"I'm going as fast as I can, Melanie, keep your boots on!" Lisa exclaimed.
"You are thinking about that older boy aren't you, Lisa," Melanie teased. "no doubt about it!"
"That is none of your business, Melanie!" Lisa scolded.
Back at Chelsea's house, Kristi had her bedroom door opened just a crack, so Chelsea peeked inside to see that Kristi had a blank sheet of paper on her desk along with a sharpened pencil held firmly in her right hand.
