Chapter 6: Chapter 6

Sam walked down stairs into the kitchen, she saw Jake, Gram, and Bryanna, she asked "Where's Dad I really have to talk to you guys about…. Well this past year"

"Sam, your dad is out on the range getting over the shock and is droving a few cattle to Darton to truck them to Reno for the sale and well we already know." Bryanna's voice was warm. I was shocked I had expected anger from everyone!

Then Gram spoke "Sam, honey your dad won't be back with all the ranch hands for 3 days and me and Bryanna are going to New York this afternoon for a cooking competition and BLM convention Bryanna has to attend. Jake has volunteered to stay with you because you haven't been here for a while honey and don't know what to do anymo—"

"Hang on Gram I know what to do here I've lived here my whole life."

"Honey things have change different jobs don't need to be done anymore while there are new jobs around, that you don't know about" Gram explained. A sudden thought popped in my head Duh why fight it didn't you want a little alone time with Jake!

Feeling happy I replied "I guess," I wanted to yell YES GOD YES! But I held myself together and sat with them to eat breakfast all the while a party going on inside my body Yay! Some alone time with Jake.

Bringing myself back to the kitchen I said, "Um… when are you two leaving?" glancing at the clock I gasped 2pm "Why didn't you guys wake me?"

Jake answered first "Hang on there brat I did wake you, at 9am this morning and you said you'd be down in 10 minutes and after an hour I guessed you obviously were tired." He said chuckling. I fixed a play glare on him.

"So what time are you guys leaving?" I asked again

"God girl anyone would think you were trying to get rid of us and we are leaving in half an hour" Bryanna chuckled.

I laughed too and then Gram spoke again "All today's chores are done you and Jake have to rest of the day to do whatever you want." I looked around the kitchen for Jake and couldn't find him my confusion must have shown because Gram said "He left awhile ago just after you realised the time. Don't worry he just went home to get some clothes for the next few days. You just go out to see your horse he's still in the barn." I nodded and left.

As I walked toward the barn I noticed the doors were shut "Hmph" I said to myself "Maybe things have changed" as I went to open the door, I swear I heard someone behind me but I didn't look back, I opened the door to the barn to find….

What the Hell I thought to my self when I saw the barn!
