Chapter 2, the accident
Hope you like it!
A trail ride seemed like a good idea at the time, but around the time we left the clouds already became darker.
'It looks a bit dark, I think we can expect a storm soon.' My mother said.
'Yea, maybe it's better if we go back.' I said a little nervous. I've never liked storms much, when I was little I was afraid of them and I still hate storms.
'Don't worry, we can ride a little further, it will take a while for the storm to get here. We'll be back long before that.' Said my mom. I still was a little worried, but I trusted my mom.
Even with the dark clouds that came closer it was a beautiful weather, and the horses seemed to enjoy it. Sundance loves to jump and a little further on the path there were some fallen trees we could jump over.
'Mom, I'm going to do some jumps with Sunny a little further, okay?' I said. 'Of course, will you be okay. Because I want to go left here, and than I go back home.' She said.
'Okay, I do a few jumps and then go home too.' I said.
I went to the right while my mother went left. After we split I had this weird feeling into my stomach, like something bad is going to happen.
Weeks later, if I look back at this moment. I realize that it was a really big mistake to ignore that feeling.
Sunny knew we were going to do some jumps and he was really excited. After 20 minutes of jumping over fallen trees, it was time to go home. While I was on my way home it started raining, and not just a little. No, it just fell out of the sky really hard! The rain poured out of the sky! I nudged Sundance and he galloped.
I couldn't see a thing because of the rain... Bam! The thunder struck hard and Sundance panicked.
'Easy boy! Easy!...!' I tried to calm him, but he couldn't hear my voice, the sounds of the wind and rain were too hard. I just couldn't do anything. Sundance was rearing up and before I knew it, I landed on the hard ground. I saw Sundance, galloping away, before everything went black...
My head was thobbing and my right arm was hurting so much... I opened my eyes, for a second everything was a bit fuzzy...
'Eurghh... were am I?' I said groaning. As soon as they heard something coming out of my mouth, all heads turned around.
'Amy!, how are you feeling, what happened?' Lou started asking.
'Lou... Let the girl breathe, she just woke up.' I heard my grandpa say.
But I was missing someone.
Where was my mom?
'Where's mom?, and why am I here? Is this the hospital?' I asked.
'Yes, you are in the hospital, sweetie. Sundance threw you off, because of the thunder. And we found you, laying on the ground, unconscious.' Lou told me.
'Ow, yes I remember. Mom and I split and I did some jumps, but Sundance became scared of the thunder.' I said remembering.
'But were is mom, is she in the hospital to? She didn't get hurt?! Did She?!' I started panicking a bit.
'Amy...' my grandpa started. 'I don't know how to say this, but your mother... She didn't came back, there was a tree, and it started falling. And your mother, she was just at the wrong place, at the wrong time...'
'What!, Is she okay?!' I asked worried.
'She... She died Amy...' Grandpa said.
At that moment, my world collapsed...
