Not in my Wildest dream

My cousins spent most of their time in the library for the last four days, sometimes Addison trains archery, while Adrian is trying to learn how to use a sword. Both of them became really busy that they almost don't notice me anymore, but there are times that they can still manage to annoy me.

I am here in the Queen's Garden now, sitting and again, playing my harp. Olivia was also sitting not too far away from me, still reading her book. Everyone has been busy doing their own things, so I managed to come back and forth here.

And then I saw a beautiful plant. It is on top of the wall, going downwards, like a curtain. It captured my eyes so I stand up and touched it. I was touching the plant that covers the wall until something moved. It made a sound like a medium sized stone being dropped. I and Olivia are both surprised to what happened! Something did move and it was indeed a stone. A small part of the wall broke and made a small hole. I looked at Olivia and she was as shocked as I am.

"Okay!" I said gasping.

"Penelope! What have you done?" Olivia said.

"We'll just leave it! No one will notice, see..." I put the plant back, and it covered the hole.

"No one will notice! This plant is covering it perfectly! No one will know!" I said. I was panicking, I don't know why, but I think, I was scared than I should be. I feel like a child who broke a plate for the first time. I pulled Olivia's hand and started to run away from the garden.

"Cousin" Adrian said as we run through him.

"Yes?"

"Why are looking scared?" He said.

"What? Me scared? Oh cousin, you're really funny!" I tried to make a fake laugh. Olivia did the same.

"Anyway, I am training to use a sword and I need to learn, how to use it while riding a horse." He said. Still talking like a mechanical person.

"Oh!" I said.

"I need you to teach me how to ride a horse." He said.

"Uhm..of course." I said.

I came to the barn with him.

"Here cousin! Pick a horse, wait here and I'll get Gummy. I will be right back." I said.

"Okay" He said.

I went to the other barn and saw William.

"William!" I said.

"Your majesty! You are back! Came to see Gummy again?" I asked.

"Yes. But, can you help my cousin, he is in there and he's picking a horse cause I will be teaching my him how to ride a horse while I get Gummy" I said.

"Of course, you majesty." He said.

I went to the barn where Gummy lives.

"Hey Gummy! How are you? Will you come with me and teach Adriane how to ride a horse?" I said to her. She seems happy, so I think she agreed. So I freed her and said.. "Let's go now and teach that boy how it's done."

I met Adrian outside the barn I left him. He has already picked his horse and I guess he is ready. First I taught him how to get on the horse and he easily did it. Then I taught him how to make the horse walk, he did it too. I think that Adriane is a natural, he is doing it like a professional. So I took it to next level. I taught him how to run, and he did! He was great! He's almost good as I am.

"Wow Adrian! You were so good!" I said to him after our training. We are now walking in a hallway.

"Thanks cousin" He said, not looking happy cause of his expressionless face.

"There you are! I have been looking for you everywhere! Where have you been brother?" Addison said as she suddenly showed up.

"Training. Horse." He said.

"What horse? But why?" She said.

"Every knight needs a horse, sister." He said.

"Okay, but how come you trained together without even inviting me?" She said.

"Would you come if we did?" He said.

"No but..."

"Then this conversation is over. I would like to go to my room and rest." He said living us.

"But brother..." Addison said as she follows her brother.

I took a bath and lay down on my bed. I could not stop thinking about today, how I taught Adrian about horseback riding. I never imagined that I and Adriane can actually enjoy a same thing! Not even in my wildest dream! It was so great. Adrian is not really annoying after all...
