Train or Tractor
chapter five
" So you've lived in the city your whole life?" Hotaru asked as she took a sip of her grapefruit juice.
" Yeah yeah I have," Usagi answered.
" Thats so neat, i wish i could visit but....." Hotaru grew silent.
" Yeah, but really, the country is much nicer and you're more open and free," Usagi said smiling sweetly.
" Yeah, yeah, i guess you're right," Hotaru said with a smile back.
" Ok, girls, I'm going to the market," Ami said as she poked her head in," Is there anything you need?"
" Oh no i'm fine," Usagi said.
" No, thanks mama," hotaru said.
" Ok, tell your papa, when he gets back," Ami said as she stepped outside. Leaving Hotaru and Usagi, Hotaru then rolled out from the table and over to the sink.
" Do you want to wash or dry?" hotaru said looking at Usagi.
" Wash," Usagi said, the two of them laughed.
A.N.: i have no idea why they're laughing. ^ ^;;;;;
Later that afternoon, while Hotaru and Usagi were in the barn, tending to the animals......
" Hotaru? Hotaru? Ami, darling?" They heard a meal voice.
" Over here papa," Hotaru called. Round the corner her came, he was wearing overalls and a pink t-shirt. His right cheeck had a smudge of dirt and a rag was hanging from his pocket.
" why hello there," Quatre said.
" Hello," Usagi said, standing up from milking the cow.She wiped her hands on the rag which she had.
" I think we snatched a beauty," Quatre said witha smile, Hotaru smiled up at her father." Oh, my apoligies, my name is Quatre," He ehdl out his hand.
" Hi, I'm Usagi, thank-you ever so much for letting me work here," She said as she shook his hand.
" Oh, it's no problem at all, we needed some more work here anyway," Quatre said. " Did your mama tell our new frend about Christie?"
" Oh, no, our horse Christie...she just had twin coalts," Hotaru said." they're so precious."
" Oh how wonderful, you must be proud," Usagi said.
" We are would you like to see her?" Quatre asked.
" Sure, why not?" Usagi answered. So the three of them walked around the corner of the barn to the stable. There in the corner, sat Christie and her two new coalts; one was a shade of ligth brown and dark brown hair, the other white with brown spots. Christie herself was all brown, with black hair. Usagi walked over and one of the coalts stood up and walked over. Usagi stooped down and started to pet it. It nuzzled her a bit. Quatre and Hotrau just smiled.
