            “Canter!”

            I sat the next few strides of the trot, and then squeezed in. Marco took a little bit then went into the canter. It was faster and had shorter strides than Verona. I guess I just had to suck it up and continue on with it. I rode his canter the best to my ability.

            His jump wasn’t any better than his canter. Instead of the beautiful flowing jump that Verona had, Marco’s was more of a jackhammer jump. It took a lot for me to come unseated when riding a horse, but he defiantly had what it took.

            “Alright class. Very good. Aleah, hopefully Verona will be better by tomorrow’s lesson. I know you miss her,” Mrs. Finch said.

            I nodded and got off Marco. He snorted and I took the girth down two holes to let him relax. I took the reins from over his head and then led him back to the barn. I sighed and walked with him and brought him into his stall, tying him to the cross ties.
