You and Simon are hanging out at your ranch, watching the horses in the pasture.

The very first horse you got, decides to try to jump the fence.

He flips over it, ripping open his chest and leg, falling onto the ground.

You sprint, calling the vet as you run, Simon following.

It’s deep. A big wound. The vet won’t be here in time.

You breathe shakily and sit down with the horse, resting his head in your lap, fighting back tears, Simon covering his mouth with wide eyes.
