The truck came to a slow, steady halt. I jerked awake. We were here! I must have dozed off, but I was wide awake now. The seat belt got thrown off in no seconds flat I was at the back of the traler, un-hitching the heavy metal bars. I slowly lowered the ramp and placed it quietly on the ground. Entering the trailer, my horse nickers to me. I pat her fondly on the neck and un-tie her from the ring. I lead her out of the trailer, but before she puts up a fight to get off it. In the end she just jumps out of it, and ends with her head and tail held high, her ears pricked, and with the setting sunlight dancing shadows across her beautiful, refined face. "Oh, this must be Remi, and you must be Max, how nice to meet you." We shook hands and the young women pointed us to Remi's stall. The barn was even more amazing than I had remembered, and the stalls, oh wow! Everything perfectly placed, with a full water bucket and hay feeder, and with pristine white sawdust covering the stall floor. And Remi, she was just in heaven! She was already making friends with the horse in the next stall while munching happily on her hay. I took her sheet off and placed it with my stuff, which a note told me my old barn manager had to go and that was everything. I double-checked everything was where it should be and went to check on Remi one last time. Satified, I found the barn manager and discussed details and such, and eventually my ride came. As we rolled out of the driveway, I felt content that this is where Remi should belong.
