"Are you sure that I will not die?" She was still skeptical. She knew that balance was not one of her strong qualities. Well, anything involving outdoor activities was not something she liked to do.
"Don't worry. I won't let anything bad happened to you." He assured her as Daniel taught her what she had to do. "Hold on to this." He pointed to the horn in the saddle.
"You have to put your feet on either side of the saddle and insert your foot in the stirrups." He instructed, lifting the stirrup to show her. He finally lifted her and waited until she settled on top of the horse.
"Oh! I don't know about this." Her earlier determination seemed to be failing her now as the horse started moving in its place. "I'm afraid that I might fall."
"Try to relax. Use your feet to balance yourself." He tried to calm her down so as not to agitate the horse too. He started stroking the white horse so that she would get used to her new rider.
