``That`s awesome,`` Myra smiled- truly smiled- as she listened to his words, taking note of how he seemed to recollect the memories. She liked the community that was at most of the rodeos she visited or competed at and, truth be told, this one was rather special because of the people. It was not the most competitive one; people came here for fun most of the time, she noticed. |

|
"It was the base for my career." He stated simply, mentally memorizing her face |
|  |
|
| |
|
``We all start from somewhere,`` She laughed gently, her eyes almost twinkling as she continued to stare at him. Honestly, he seemed like a decent person and she truly wouldn`t mind spending more time with him. Briefly, Myra glanced back towards where Adonis was busying himself with eating hay, admiring him. The stallion truly was a prize, yet it had taken ages to get him to where he was today at his age. |

"So, do you travel to rodeos often?" He asked, making more small talk. He loved the way the fire made her look as though she were glowing right in front of him. She's gorgeous. He thought, pushing the intrusive thing away |
| |
|
| |
|
``Yeah, quite often,`` Myra began as she continued to observe him, her smile and relaxed state never wavering. There was something about him that made all her worries and concerns fade away on the wind, as if he was simply the embodiement of calm. ``I try to compete once a week, sometimes twice. My parents enjoy having me accompany my sister, which is sometimes worth it.`` |
| |
|
| |
|
Caleb chuckled. "Only sometimes worth it?" He asked, curious |
| |
|
| |
|
``She`s a pain,`` Myra revealed with a dramatic roll of her eyes, a small smile playing on the edges of her lips as she looked away from him. She stared off into the distance, reflecting about Lily and her shenanigans. ``It is always nice to see her win, even if I have to deal with her attitude. And gods.. she is quite the hopeless romantic; she doesn`t try to hide it either.`` |
| |
|
| |
|
Caleb chuckled lightly, drawn in by this beautiful woman. "Is that her?" He asked, pointing to the girl. "She rides well, but she could use some work" He added quietly |
| |
|
| |
|
Myra nodded in response, following his outstretched finger. As per usual, Lily was engaged in a conversation with what seemed to be a group of guys, all of them wearing outfits that screamed `red flag`. She heeded his words and took a moment to process them before replying softly, ``Yeah, she could improve in quite a lot. It takes time to get to a decent level, truth be told.`` |
| |
|
| |
|
"And you've put in the work to get where you are now" Caleb murmured softly, smiling at her and dropping his hand |
