Chapter 787: FIRST EXPERIENCE
"I can't study because I have to wait for Alia at the hospital." They were not a very wealthy family and the room where Alia was being treated was not even a VIP room where you would be comfortable spending the night there, especially for a teenager who had to study for exams after completing her responsibilities at home.
Hearing everything Kia said made Misha speechless. He didn't know what he was thinking and moreover, he didn't think long when he mentioned all of that, he just wanted to tell about his experience when he was little and didn't really pay attention to the context of the story. Everything he said just flowed.
"We're here," Misha said as he parked his car and then got out of there. He had contacted someone to prepare two horses for them to ride. "Let's go."
Misha took Kia's hand and led her into the stables, where a guard named Dave, a man in his fifties, was already waiting for them.
"Good morning Mr. Tordoff," said the man and then smiled at Kia before introducing himself. He looked very fit and healthy for his age. "Come here, this way please."
Dave led them on a walk through the large stables to the horses that had been prepared for them.
"Has Ms. Kia ridden a horse before?" asked Dave politely and watched as Kia shook her head. "Oh, no problem, the horse you are going to ride is really docile and very kind, you don't need to worry, because the horse is very sensitive and can feel the feelings of its rider."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKia winced. She didn't feel that she would be able to leave her worries behind completely.
And as if he felt Kia's distress, Misha squeezed her hand gently, even though he didn't say anything, it was as if he was telling her that he was here by her side, so there was nothing to worry about.
"This is Zee," Dave said, introducing Kia the brown horse, which she would be riding. "I have prepared everything and you just have to get on it after changing your clothes."
Kia looked at the big horse in front of her with amazed eyes. She blinked her eyes many times and for some reason, she seemed to have returned to her childhood when she really wanted to go see horses but couldn't because she had to repeat her failed exam.
Oh, come on, she was a mother with a child, but right now she was behaving like an immature teenager.
"Which horse are you going to ride?" asked Kia enthusiastically, tugging at Misha's sleeve, as if forgetting that she shouldn't act like this.
Misha took Kia to a dark brown horse that looked so intimidating, as he waved Dave to leave them alone, which the old man obliged and smiled politely at Kia.
"This is Fang." Misha extended his hand and touched the horse' muzzle. The horse looked docile when he was with him, even though Kia still looked at him with fear, because unlike Zee, Fang looked more fierce.
"It's very funny you named him Fang," commented Kia. "Considering he doesn't have any fangs."
Misha also chuckled a little when he heard what Kia said. "Actually, it wasn't me who named it, my father gave it a name, so you can see how weird my father is, right?"
Kia laughed along with Misha and soon he took her to a changing place not too far from there.
Inside the changing area, there was already a set of riding clothes complete with boots, gloves and also the helmet that Kia needed to wear.
"I'll wait outside and get changed after you." Kia said, because this changing area, although spacious enough for five people to use at a time, didn't have any partitions, so if they were going to change at the same time, they would be able to see each other.
"Why do you have to go out? We can change clothes together, can't we?" Misha said lightly while holding Kia's hand so she wouldn't go, just now he had taken off his jacket and unbuttoned his shirt.
"No," Kia said nervously.
"Why? Will you be embarrassed if I see you naked?" Misha tilted his head and smiled sweetly. "I've seen it before, has anything changed now? So you don't want to show it to me?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMisha! Kia widened her eyes in surprise, but her face turned red when she understood the meaning behind his question. This man was truly shameless. "No, I'll go out and get changed after you."
Kia then immediately ran away from this dangerous man, luckily, Misha this time no longer held her back and let her go because otherwise there was no way Kia could escape easily.
Less than ten minutes later, Misha had come out in his gear for riding and let Kia into the locker room.
"Are you sure you won't need my help?" asked Misha. "I can wait inside and close my eyes, just in case you need help."
Kia glared at him fiercely. "No way," she said firmly and then pushed him out and locked the door, just in case Misha went crazy enough to open the door, even though it didn't look like that was going to happen.
After that, Kia spent about fifteen more minutes and got a few knocks from Misha to make sure she was okay, only then she walked out.
It wasn't easy to get into this outfit, but Kia was excited to try her first horse ride. It would be nice if she could show this to Mika too…
"Come here, let me check you out," Misha said, waving his hand. He stood beside Zee, inspected the horse a second time, made sure he was in the right shape and safe for Kia to ride.
Kia walked closer to Misha and the man started to examine her briefly, before nodding in satisfaction.
Misha also explained a few things she needed to know while riding before finally it was time for Kia to ride her horse. She was a little nervous.
"Relax," said Misha while helping Kia to mount her horse.
