The horse got closer to her accepting her, making her heart overflow.
"And I promise I won't leave you again." She spoke; the words were a vow, spoken with a conviction that resonated deeply within her. She knew that they both needed this reunion, a chance to heal and to move forward together.
"Once you get better, you can stay with her…" Jerrick said, walking up to the horse.
Jessamyn took a step back from the horse. He was full of vigor even though his appearance didn't match what he used to be. Jessamyn had a good feeling that it wouldn't be long before Jostein would be back.
