A Friend Arrives Part 3
While Lisa was busy catching up on her sleep, Stevie was finishing up her jump.
Stevie brought Belle back to a walk and then stopped to dismount.
Elizabeth came out of the lounge to resume her lesson.
"Very good, Stevie," Elizabeth said. "okay, Carole, you're jumping next."
"Yes, Mrs. Reg." Carole said.
Though, before she could mount Starlight, Max walked right up to Carole.
"Your father's on the telephone, Carole." Max said.
"I'll be right there, Max." Carole said.
"I'll save your place for you." Kristi told Carole.
"Thanks, Kristi." Carole said, making a mad dash for Max's office.
"What was that all about?" Veronica DiAngelo sneered.
"Now now, Veronica," Elizabeth reprimanded. "let's let Carole have a moment with her father on the phone."
"Okay, Mrs. Reg." Veronica said.
Elizabeth saw Veronica mounting Garnet.
"And don't you dare think about taking Carole's spot," Elizabeth said firmly to Veronica. "remember, you are jumping after K.C."
Yes! I'll be sure to put that stuck-up brat, Veronica in her place! K.C. thought.
"What do you mean I'm jumping after K.C?" Veronica asked in an outraged tone of voice.
"Just what it sounds like, your high and mightiness," K.C. said to Veronica. "Mrs. Reg said you are after me."
Carole came back from her phone call.
"So, Carole," Stevie asked curiously as Carole prepared to mount Starlight. "what did your dad have to say?"
"I'd like you, Kristi, K.C, and Lisa to meet me in my bedroom later tonight, Stevie," Carole replied, mounting Starlight's back. "I will tell you all in there."
"Okay." Stevie said.
In an hour after the riding lesson, Lisa was feeling much better, having gotten the sleep she needed.
Lisa decided to go for a trail ride with K.C, the two of them had to bundle up more because it had snowed more.
"Don't go too far you two," Deborah advised the girls. "after all, a huge blizzard will be on top of us here in Willow Creek within the hour."
