One month later. I sat alone in the living room watching through the window as Bruno and father played with my horse. The two of them were laughing as they brushed the horse, and then father leant into Bruno's ear and whispered something. Bruno nodded with a giggle and father grabbed him by the torso and placed him on top of the horse. The two of them looked very happy together. The smile on Bruno's face made me feel warm and less angry at father. It took him just two weeks to warm up to father, and I have to admit that father was really persistent. I guess second chances weren't all bad after all. I could tell mother hasn't fully forgiven him either, as they were civil at most times, but it was obvious father was set on winning her heart back with the most cheesy romantic lines
