Chereads / The Horse In The Dark / Chapter 8 - The Barn

Chapter 8 - The Barn

We went back to Tyler's house and looked up barn decorations and colors.

"I say we either go with the cliche red or a deep blue." I said. I thought it'd go well with the setting of the tall dry grass and large field. Now we just needed to find out how to get all the stuff to find it. And the time.

"Um guys.... We have a problem. Potentially a huge one. My dad texted me."

"Saying what?" Olive asked jumping up.

"Hey, I need you three times be here soon... I have something I need to tell you all... I am so sorry."

"We need to go. Now. What if he says you can't go to public school or something?" Tyler asked grabbing his shoes. I couldn't think straight. I sat on Tyler's bed thinking about what it could possibly be. I doubt it was anything about Maya. He doesn't even know she exists other than that one time he saw her when I first fell asleep in the field. And he would not want to pull me out of school. He is the one that suggests it.

"Lizzy! Let's go. We need to know whats going on. Come on." Olive said pulling me off the bed and onto my feet. I grabbed my shoes and my jacket and we walked out into the cold rain. It was about a five to ten minutes walk back to my house. What could possibly be this important? Why now?

As we walked in the house. My dad was sitting on the couch and motioned us to sit down.

"Something happened." He started explaining.

"And?" Tyler said to push him to continue on.

"We have to move again. Not around this area. I'm so sor-"

"No! I am NOT leaving here! I have things here for me! you can't take me away from this it's not fair!" I screamed jumping up. I ran for Maya.
