“Recently, it’s just been shopping, drinking, and hitting the clubs, I'm really over it,” Fiona sighed, resting her
elbows on the table. Suddenly, her face lit up “You know what? The weather's absolutely perfect today. How
about we head over to Caylee’s equestrian club this afternoon?”
Caylee’s family owned the biggest equestrian club in New York.
They had all taken horseback riding lessons together before.
Mariela smiled and teased “Are you sober? If not, don’t go. That's drunk driving.”
“I sobered up ages ago,” Fiona responded with a mischievous grin. “Last night, | ended up throwing up on Darryl.
Poor guy turned the color of a
lime.”
Caylee gave a gentle smile, “Didn’t Darryl get upset about that?
Fiona said, “To my surprise, Darryl is practically like my brother now. Even after | threw up on him, he just
changed his clothes, took a shower, and then madestea,”
Darryl and Fiona were not biologically related.

Fiona’s parents divorced when she was seven because their relationship failed.

Mariela stirred her coffee with a spoon, her eyes fixed on Fiona. “You were definitely sent to give him a hard
time.”
Fiona snorted, “He always pranked me.”
After talking about daily things, Fiona asked, “Are you going to the equestrian club? | haven't ridden in a while.”
