Description
Kei woke up beside C.L the next morning. He was in deep sleep and breathed slowly. Kei got up and started to pack her belongings. She couldn’t believe she was about to do this.

They left the apartment together when C.L had woken. Outside stood Cher Ami with her eyes fixated on the two of them. She lowered her head when Kei went up to her, while C.L packed his belongings into the saddle packs on her back. He pulled up his book and wrote quickly “She said good morning”.
Kei smiled at the mare and returned the gesture. She sat up on Cher Amis back with help of C.L, who didn’t like when Kei mounted the mare alone. He leaped up on the mares back behind Kei and the mare started to trot down the same old rode to Rosendal manors.

It was still dark outside when they arrived to Rosendal. The stables was dark but out in the pastures the horses grazed and enjoyed their summer vacation. C.L showed his mare the way to the Arabian mares pasture. Kei spotted the mare and exhaled. When they were in front of the pasture, C.L jumped off and lifted Kei down on the ground. He raised his finger to her as a gesture for “Just a minute”. He walked away from Kei and her Cher Ami and opened the gate to the pasture. He walked slowly through the high grass. Kei left Cher Ami and leaned against the stonewall. That surrounded the pasture.

C.L didn’t open his channel, it would be rude, so he waited for the mare to make the first move. She looked at him from her dark place beneath the high trees and smelled the air. She didn’t break the eye contact with C.L, she just starred at him, confused. She wiped with her tail from side to side as she continued to observe the man. C.L lowered his head, looked down to the ground and closed his eyes. He felt a tingling feeling in his right side of the brain and knew that a conscious was trying to make contact with him. He remained still until he heard a faint voice in the distance “Who are you?”.
C.L breathed slowly “A friend”. He heard the mare come closer, slowly, one step at a time.
“Why are you a friend” she said swaying in his head.
“ I am your friend if you want me to”. One step and another closed by in the distance.

Kei observed the whole situation with her mouth slightly open. The mare closed in to C.L, who stood with his head lowered to the ground, totally relaxed. Kei knew that the mare could run him over if she choose to, but she closed in carefully with her head down to the ground as she observed the man. Her blue eyes was slightly open. If she was a cat, Kei could almost swear that it looked like the mare purred.

“I am C.L”.
“C.L”. The mares sense purred, as if she tasted the name in her mind. “I am the wish of the black soul”. Now she was just in front o him, holding her head high and proudly. ”Moniet El Aswad Nefous, is my name”. C.L looked up for the first time and looked the mare directly into her eyes. He went down in a gracious bow.
”A pleasure”. He returned to stand quite ordinary, watching the mare. She inhaled slowly as she watched him.
”You are not like others”.
”I am different”. The mare laughed proudly in her mind, clearly amused by the words.
C.L focused on their mental contact and tried to ask the question as politely as he could manage, about if the mare wanted to join him for a journey.

The minutes passed by and Kei was lost in space. Watching C.L when he did this, was such a honor. But when then mare left her safety zone and started to nibble C.L’s jacket Kei got dragged back into reality. Did she see this? Did her mind play her tricks? No, the mare stood close to C.L with her head close into his private zone. C.L stroke her cheek slowly. Kei managed to look away from the two of them and watched Cher Ami, who was standing with her head low and turned away from the whole event. Kei went up to her and caressed her thick neck. The mare looked back at the girl and inhaled.
- It must be hard to see him… and Cher Ami exhaled.

”Why don’t you let anyone ride you?” whispered C.L carefully in his mind.
”I don’t like men riding me. They took me away from my home, my birthplace”. She placed a picture in C.L’s mind of a great desert.
”I’m sorry to hear, but no man will ride you”, said C.L calmly and transferred a picture of Kei’s face into the mares conscious. “Can you accept a girl?”.

C.L backed away from the mare and started to stride against the wall from where Kei and Cher Ami was standing. While he walked he pulled up his book and wrote swiftly “Get her tack” and showed Kei.
“We are leaving now”. Kei looked from the book, to C.L to the mare in the pasture who waited with her head high.
- Okay… are- are you sure? Kei lost her voice as she looked at the mare. C.L nodded fast and wrote.
“Hurry, I heard a car down the rode”.
- You, heard… a car?! Kei looked down the rode but didn’t see any car. C.L pointed up to his head, as to say, “In my head”. He turned his head back and nodded to the mare who walked up to him.

Kei ran down to the stable and opened the door to the saddlery. She ran for Sebestjen’s stuff and pulled out the mares bridle and saddle. She snatched some of her grooming equipment on the way out. She fished up a letter from her pocket and placed it on the empty saddle holder where the saddle had been. It would explain everything for him. She would call Sara later and tell her why she was gone, Kei was sure that Sara didn’t mind her absence after some explanations. She ran out of the stable and out to the pasture. She breathed hard and sank to the ground with the equipments. C.L ran towards her and sank down by her side, worried about her collapse.

- No worries, inhaled Kei and waved at the Arabian. C.L sprang to the mare and offered her the bridle. She didn’t protest and seemed to know what they risked by doing this. C.L returned for Kei, lifted her up in is arms and carried her swiftly towards the mare. He was about to heave her up on the mares back when Kei protested.
- She doesn’t have any saddle! C.L ignored her protest and heaved her up anyway. He threw the reins over the mares neck and offered them to Kei, who got a strong hold of them. C.L ran towards Cher Ami, picked up the Arabians saddle on the way and jumped gracefully up in the saddle, surely not distracted from the weight of the saddle in his right arm. He turned around to face Kei and pointed to the wall. Kei followed his finger and realized what he was about to do. He was going to jump the wall!
