Ryker snorted slightly. "Become capable." He answered, smiling softly at her last words. He put an arm around her, sighing slightly. "Someday our life will be less chaotic. Maybe after the kid goes to college." He joked, thinking.

"Yeah. I'm eighteen years. Way to go Ryker" she teased, sighing a little. "I just really hope Jessica and the children are ok. But I'm not going down the what if road again. We know how that went last time"

"Hey, in the grand scheme of things 18 years isn't that long! We live for, on average, 77 years (as of 2023 xD) the world was made 10,000 years ago, and before that time didn't even exist!" Ryker laughed, then nodded firmly. "Yes. No what ifs. They are fine." He said firmly. "I don't like it when you go down the what if road."

"I don't like it when I go down the what if road either, but sometimes it's inevitable. " her tone was saddened, and her face showed it too. She reached over and grabbed her milk glass, taking a few sips before putting it down. "They are taking a nap.. or atleast I think they are. " she then stopped and looked around. "I need some fresh air. Do you want to go outside with me?"

Ryker nodded again, slightly, and signed. "I know. I can't blame you. I do it too. Just on the inside." He smiled slightly before glancing at the door. "Yeah. Of course I WANT to go outside with you. At this point I'm not letting you alone for ... ever." He quickly stood up and glanced at her, ready.

Abby jumped up, eager to move around. "Yay ok! I don't mind you not leaving. My personal body guard!" She wrapped her thin arm around his muscular one. "Here we go" she quietly walked to the door, debating wether or not she should put on shoes. She decided to go barefoot. When she stepped outside it was hot. She quickly shed the sweatshirt she had on over her sleep shirt. "Why is it so hot!" She dropped the shirt by the door and made her way through the grass around the house.

Ryker took her arm and walked out with her, then chuckled quietly. "Because it's SUMMER." He answered, stretching out his other arm before wandering through the green grass. "Nice outside today. Or tonight? No, wait, to-morning. We just woke up didn't we." He blinked. "This is confusing."

"Morning. We just woke up " she sat down in the lush grass and gazed down at the horses. "I wonder at what point I won't be able to ride anymore" her eyes drifting over to Ryker. "I really hope I get a few months before then"

Ryker chuckled a little and nodded, sitting down beside her with a sigh. "You should get a few months before then. I sure hope. Don't become all grumpy when you can't ride." The last part was a tease, accompanied with a small grin. "But you of all people know there's so much more to horses than riding. I learned that quite well when I wasn't able to ride for a single month, way back when that grizzly attacked me, but you will learn it even better." He smiled faintly.

"Yes but at the same time I'll be varying an extra 20 or so pounds. Things will be a little harder for me" she gave him a nudge before pulling him up and walking a little further down the house. She peeked around the corner of the exterior. She was scared someone was going to be there ready to kill her but thankfully no one was
