Zander did not know how long and how far he ran, but he was able to reach the Royale Palace Inn. His heart was beating fast, but he was not tired at all. Not far from where he was standing, he heard a neighing horse. He turned and looked at the horse. He had forgotten all about his horse and went running.
The horse walked leisurely toward him. In Zander's eyes, the horse seemed like mocking him. Zander laughed so hard upon realizing his blunder.
He patted the head of the horse and said, "You beast! You let me ran that far when you were also there."
He pulled the reign of the horse and led it to the stable. He touched his lips and smiled. He had never dreamt that such a wonderful moment could happen to him.
"Ugh! Big Brother, could you please not smile like that. It gives me the creeps."
The familiar voice startled Zander and snapped him out of his reverie. He followed the source of the voice and expected to see Zekiah with a smug expression.
