chapter 31

Sophie pov

It's probably in my head. this horse can't be my first horse from my mum. I got into the stable and the horse didn't move. I patted it and it moved its tail. This is my horse, but how in the world is my horse in lord jobe finest stable

Wait...................................................

I gave my horse to a young man when I was 14.

4 yrs. ago

"Sophie!?" my mother called me.

"yes mama" I answered running to the bakery

"I need more flour from the store room. Get a bag for me" she asked.

The store room was not even a part of house. its 2 miles away.

I nodded and she smiled at me.

I walked towards the storeroom. Suddenly a carriage sped before me and crashed into a tree at my back.

I was scared and frightened. This carriage didn't have a horse with it. I wondered who must be inside. I decided to quickly call my mother to check it out but the door of the carriage moved. I stopped and walked towards the carriage. I saw bloody hand trying to push the door of the carriage. my mother will punish me if she finds out what I'm about to do but I did it anyways. I pushed the door of the carriage and a young man fell from the carriage. He was injured. brutally.

He eyes were opened but none of us could speak for a certain reason I didn't know.

"I finally broke the silence and said

"I should get my mother. Shell know what to do" I wanted to get up but he held my leg with his bloody hands.

"don't call anyone. Give me a horse" he weakly said.

" a horse? I have to let my mother know I have a dying man close to our store." I said panicking

"I'll reward you greatly. Just give me the horse. "he answered weakly

"you'll die if you don't get treated "I said looking worried. I've experienced a war, it killed my father but seeing someone dying in front of me will traumatize me

"I won't die" he answered.

" ok the horse I have is almost 3 years old ." I said regretting those words. My mother will be so pissed at me but I'm helping someone in need.

"it's alright." He said

I ran to our tiny farm and brought happy, my horse. He stood up and I was able to help him on happy. It really hurt for me to let happy go but I was saving a life.

The stranger looked deeply into my eyes and said

When I find you ill reward you greatly

He was about to go when I said

"her name is happy please take care of her" he smiled and left.

Could it be that lord jobe was the injured man Isaw? It can't be. right? I asked myself this question. Is that why he doesn'twant to let me go. Because of that gesture. Its fine I don't need him to rewardme. I just need my freedom. But he won't listen. I'm going to go ahead with myplan. Fleeing tonight
