"Okay. Love you!" Dakota smiled and went to the barn. Athena nickered and nuzzled Dakota's hand. "Wanna go for a ride girl?" Athena neighed and shook her mane.
Dakota got Athena all tacked up, and she took her out to the field. Her and Jacob's field. They rode around and went to the beach. No one ever went there, except Dakota. That's where she went after she left the orphanage. They rode at the water's edge and watched the sunrise. Athena stopped and let Dakota think. This was the beach her and Jacob would play at when they were kids.
