Prologue The girl and her horse
513 Words
Kirsten- horse fanatic, yes that is me. So since I was 7 years old, I loved horses, weird since my mom is afraid of them. My sister is boy crazy, and gets into trouble all the time. She was a b***h to me growing up with her. She was into all the usual girl stuff make up going out with guys, dating some out there guys, but she was a mean girl.. She had a bitchy girl friend or two that would attack me and gang up on me - I basically has to fight them off at times it was so bad, horses were my savior. The farm really helped me since I am a shy person, I dont really talk to guys much - ok I dont talk to them period lol....
I never really dated in high school. Think I went out once on a date where a boy picked me up to go out to see a movie, my sisters boyfriend took me to my Junior Prom, but that was cause my sister said I should go, that I was missing out (of course I felt that I just want to go get a new saddle set, and he had a car and the prom was next to my farm that was having an auction on Thursday night which was The night of the prom...) and went stag to my Senior Prom, I had fun though since I wasn't feeling like I was missing anything anyway. Got my saddle though lol.
My Parents divorced when I was a baby, so I really didn't have much of a father figure until I was in high School and only really saw him occasionally. The one thing he did right though, was get me my horse from the Farm I worked at.
I worked as a trail guide for a horse trader, he was well known for having horse auctions weekly in our area. While I worked there through my teenage years I ran a string of 70 horses, had a team of other volunteer trail guides that I trained and we had a blast there. Riding new horses all the time, going on night rides, hayrides and games. We used to have hundreds of people come to go horseback riding.
So I went to college - a women's college for horses, it was fun but I was probably a lil home sick - then sister drama. My mom got remarried and she hated him worse than our dad. My horse went to college with me - but unfortunately he died he was a great horse, not a famous race horse but I could do anything with him. I went back to school to get a Criminal Justice degree with a minor in Psychology to become a lead detective in my small town. That is where I met Casey. my best friend, he and I are the best of friends although I think more thoughts about him and not in the best friend kind of way.
So I return to my home town to start anew.
