Melissa, who was about to bend forward, happened to have her shirt ride up a little and then you see a big bruise as you can see she didn't say anything at that moment and then said after getting back into the right position.

Annilyn noticed the bruise but said nothing, but thought, "She wasn't kidding about her dad!"

"Hey, Melissa!" She said. "Where do you wanna go to have some fun?"

Melissa said "I don't know, I'd need some new clothes and maybe something for Diana, then we'll have to think of something else" she said

Nastasya Xenia Volkov/ 1st year/ show jumping, cross country, pleasure riding, in-hand showing/ Thunder's Striker and Lightning Crasher/ 17. After some time going over jumps with Lightning, Nastasya walked her around the arena for cooling her off. Lightning pranced around, the energetic Thoroughbred mare tossing her head, the bitless bridle allowing her more control and happiness.

"Okay, let's go!" Annilyn said. She was pretty rich but didn't care about acting rich and liked to buy things for other people. "Let's go to get stuff for our horses right now. Fancy needs a new bridle before we show."

Melissa who had been running out of money and was thinking about what things she should buy for Diana what she needed new halter and bridle she needs that she asked for. and a new saddle pad. The color that fits is red or purple pink works with.

They walked through the store and Annilyn grabbed the bridle and saddle pad she needed. "Get whatever you want." She told Melissa. "Don't worry about the money!" She chuckled. "I got wayy more than I can use. You probably don't want to know my weekly allowance! And if I don't use some of it each week, Mom's like, 'Annilyn! Why didn't you buy anything?' And if I say I'm saving for something, she just says, 'whats the price?' and gives me money for it! So I just use it each week and give money to the church too. I manage to use most of it but I still have a LOT left over."

(FYI this is NOT true about my real self lol)

many things she would like but they are too expensive so she said "thanks" she said while still looking around for something to match the black bridle with the silver studs in the headband.

"Girl, get whatever you want!" Annilyn said, seeing the look on Melissa's face she had seen on many others faces before; the look that said, 'its too expensive.'

"I have tons of money; my parents are like... Millionaires, and if I saved up all my allowance for 1 week I'd probably be one too. I don't need all that money so I just get stuff for my horses. Do you have only Diana?"

Melissa, who doesn't know how to explain everything, said, "I have a little bit left from my parents' inheritance, but it wasn't much and most of it has gone to, well, you know," she said.
