The car twisted and turned through the mountains. I held my head to the window, it was cold. I used it to calm my nerves of leaving the hospital for the first time in weeks.
“Are you okay honey?” Mum asked from the front. “I’m fine Mum,” I replied, not very honestly. Lea my older sister gave me a sympathetic look and started fishtailing my hair. I couldn’t do it myself but I liked the feeling of my hair being ruffled through her fingers. We passed mountain after mountain. Each one looked more beautiful and mysterious than the last. We started to twist onto the road to Fort Pinta, and then to the bridge and the Inn. At the Inn, Dad got us food. I ordered a veggie burger and fries - the same as Lea. I also copied her with drinks, a smoothie. We sat watching the water rush under the bridge. I could drink the smoothie through a straw but it was harder to man over the burger and fries to my mouth. I managed it (straying myself with ketchup) before we payed and got back into the car. “Mum, Dad, can’t Maya poke around Dews Farm with me?” Lea said. Dad was driving but Mum looked up from her phone and replied: “I don’t think so honey, let’s just get home. Another time maybe?” I wanted to look around Dews Farm but saying so would have taken too long. We drove through the marshes before arriving at Crescent Moon Village. Mum opened the door for me and held me under the arms, helping me into our home. Our house was near the river. We had a compositing toilet outside as most houses here did. Logs were piled against the front of the house for the fire in the living room. We ate, cooked and sat in the same room downstairs. Up a tight ladder was the bathroom and Mum and Dad’s room. Finally, in the attic Lea and I lived. Mum helped me into a chair where I sat stroking Church our cat. For now I was content.

Hello!Welcome to my little space on the large internet where I can share my thoughts, views and fanfics! I am you 'normal' teenaged girl, who loves writing, gaming and horses. I've played Star Stable online since 1st June 2014 and I am currently a level 20 player on Cupcake Valley where I hang about with Frosty Roses and my 18 pixel horses!

I have nothing to do with Star Stable and own none of their graphics. But I can tell you it is a great game and you should play it!
