Working in the barn for at least an hour Katie stops for a second and
stands stretching her back out. At the moment she was working alone
letting Hunter sleep this morning. If he wasn't out here already she
figured he might just might be getting a goodnight sleep and that was
something he needed. Once it got a little later if he wasn't here she'd
go check.
Taking a moment to wondered outside the barn and take in a breath of air movement on the driveway catches her attachen.
Seeing it was Hunter Katie just stands there for a long moment watching
him. She'd wonder what he was doing, or where he was going but the bag
on his bike explained it all. He looked going like he had coming. So
now...he was leaving again?
Katie didn't want to
believe it. She wanted to think he was just going out to do something
and would be back, maybe he needed air and some time to himself but in
the pit of her stomach, with what she saw with her eyes Katie new. She
new in her heart he'd leave and never come back.
Turning
around quickly and heading back inside Katie spots Dylan and walks over
to him. She new he had his own work to do but she hoped he wouldn't
mind to much helping her out as well. Either way she would be leaving
she just would feel better not leaving this place a mess.
"Hey Dylan, I have something that came up, can you do me a favor and
just clean out this last stall for me. It would mean a lot and thanks."
Setting
the pitch fork down Katie heads out of the barn again and takes off her
gloves. Putting them in her back pocket she heads to her bunk to grab
her keys. Stopping by Hunter's bunk she just wanted to confirm to
herself that he really had left. Seeing the note and the little bit of
money Katie just leaves it for now before leaving and than sprinting to
her car.
Getting in she wastes no time before peeling out of the drive way
and turning the same way she had seen Hunter go. She didn't know where
he was going but she could guess maybe back to Nevada, He was only ten
or fifteen minutes ahead of her she could catch up if she hurried.
Speeding down the road Katie new she was going fast but she
wanted to catch up to Hunter, it was important to her, and she needed to
talk to him. She had a question and she wouldn't let it go unasked.
There were not many people out at this time anyways so she new for the
most part she was safe.
Coming up to the intersection Katie saw a figure on the road.
Slowing down a little bit she could make out a bike and Hunter. He was
stopped, he must have been for a while but why. It was strange and she
didn't quite understand but she would soon.
Pulling over to the side of the road Katie shuts her car off and
gets out. Coming over twords Hunter a little bit she jingles her keys in
her hand as she looks up at him squinting in the sun.
Once again Katie emotions ran high though she tried to controle them. Seeing Hunter in front of her now it was hard to fight the feelings she felt. She felt hurt, betrayed, and stabbed in the back. To have come so far, to get so close, and to do what most people wouldn't only to have him walk away now.
