-----Jake's place-----
Melanie pulled on here boots and asked,
"So where exactly are we going?"
"To River Bend Ranch" Jake answered. Melanie sighed,
"Why?"
"I need to help with the HARP program"
"And I am coming because?" Melanie asked slightly confused.
"You can help"
"What if you guys don't need my help?" Jake sighed,
"Then you can-don't worry you will be needed."
Melanie sighed, and saddled up Chip, she missed her old horse, Rust. But for now, she would ride whatever horse she was told to.
--------River Bend------
Brynnna sighed,
"Wow well all we can really do is continue with our program, besides if its been a year she's probably already had talks and stuff like that." Jen and Sam nodded, it made sense.
We should probably go get the girls up now, right?" Brynna nodded.
"And don't forget isn't Jake coming?" Brynna reminded.
"Oh yeah, we should probably let him work with Adi, that would be good." Jen said, clearly enjoying the idea.
"We'll see" Brynna said.
They stepped outside into the crisp, summer air which smelled like the flowers Gram had planted some weeks ago. By the time they got to the bunkhouse, Sam could smell breakfast cooking, and hurried inside to wake both of the girls up.
"Rise and shine!" Jen said, as she pulled the curtains open. Both girls groaned, but Victoria got up fast when she realized where she was.
-------Breakfast------
The four girls stepped onto the bunk porch as two riders rode over the bridge.
"Who's that?" Vicky asked.
"Jake, most likey, and….?" Jen looked at Sam for help.
"His sister, I guess." Sam said. Jen shook her head, and then nodded,
"Oh yeah, now I remember!" Both of the girls looked confused, so Jen clarified,
"Jake helps with the program, and he recently got a sister, so it looks like she came as well." They both nodded, and then all of them continued towards the ranch house while Jake and Melanie untacked their horses.
Sam opened the door for the girls, as Victoria asked,
"What's for breakfast?"
"Pancakes," Grace said.
"Oh yum!" Jen and Vicky said at the same time. They all sat down along with Brynna, while Grace put the pancakes on the table. As she set the bacon down, Jake and Melanie walked in. Melanie made a vague 'hi' gesture and sat down next to Jake. Everyone studied Melanie while they ate, except Vicky, she didn't really care.
"So Jake, what's it like having a sister?" Grace asked.
"Its…." Jake paused, "interesting" he finished. They heard a light thump, Jake smiled and shook his head at Melanie who turned her head in the other direction. Jen smiled, she realized what had happened; Melanie had used her foot to remind Jake how wonderful she was. Adi stared Melanie, and after breakfast asked,
"What was your name again?"
"Melanie, and lemme see if I can get this right." She turned to face all four girls. "Jen?" she asked.
"Right," Jen said, clearly pleased that Melanie got her name right.
"Wow, I'm usually really bad with name-um Sam, right?" Sam nodded, and Melanie continued, "Vicky and Adi?" Vicky laughed and said,
"You got us mixed up, I'M Vicky, and she's Adrianna."
"Cool, so umm now what?" Melanie asked.
"They go get their horses and we show them how to halter them and you know, stuff like that." Melanie nodded, and Adi whispered to Vicky, "She looks like my best friend, except she had blond hair, its kind of weird, what should I do?"
