After Joe left them, Daniel also told Scarlet that it was time that they also head back. The mood between them suddenly changed. The playfulness was gone.
The ride back was not silent but slightly a bit awkward. Scarlet could sense that Daniel's mind was busy thinking of something else, but he still entertained her with the scenery. But it was not like before they left the house.
"I will be dropping you at the house and be back after I returned Lightning to the barn." He informed her as they stopped in front of the house.
She wanted to ask him if his sudden change in his mood had something to do with Amber, but they were already at the house.
He went down first from the horse and helped her down next. Then, he mounted the horse again.
"Why don't you take a rest first. I'll be back in a few minutes. I need to discuss something with Rick." When he saw her nodded, he turned his horse in the direction of Rick's house.
