She noticed her words didn`t seem to have much of an effect, so she receded with a small sigh. Myra looked up at the sky again quietly, deciding it was better to remain silent for now. There was no need to dwell on the past in her opinion, especially since one could not change anything even if they desperately wanted to. Besides, she knew if she had made a mistake, she had Adonis to rely on; the horse was smart- maybe even smarter than her- and clearly knew what he was doing anyways. |

Caleb eventually stopped thinking about the competition and stood, walking to the cooler and grabbing 2 beers. He offered one to Myra as he sat down. |
|  |
|

``Thank you,`` she mumbled quietly as she accepted the beer, holding it for a few moments before beginning to drink from it.

"Yeah. I'm hoping to get a job somewhere soon for a bit longer than just a one-job deal." He said quietly |

(I have tried posting four times and I always get logged out x-x) Myra looked over at him as he spoke, her eyes widneing slightly. She knew that her parents were always looking for new people to hire, but only if they had a good records and lots of equine experience.
