CHAPTER 9
After resting for a while, Birgid decided to explore the island a bit.
Arrived at a paddock, she saw a wonderful black stallion. Which she could also entice with a little patience and started talking to him as she stroked him everywhere.
He seemed particularly fond of being scratched between the ears. "Well my big one, why are you so alone here? You know, you almost look like Black Devil at my house. Only that he has the tips of his ears, but you are really all black. ”Her voice was more of a Sing Sang than a speak. But the stallion seemed to like it, because he sniffed her neck very lovingly, as if he just wanted to say not stop.
"What do you think will you help me explore the island? When you carry me, I see a lot more than when I roam the area alone and you get some movement. ”When she arrived in the stable, she quickly found a saddle that suited her. But apparently not to the stallion.
He put his ears on and started dancing around nervously. She looked at him with her head cocked and asked him, "Don't you like saddles or just not this one? Well, we'll just put it away. It can also be done without. But then we have to look for a pedestal so that I can get a little bigger, otherwise I won't think of you.
Because in relation to me you are really huge. "
She led him to a rock from which she could comfortably climb onto his back.
"So now let's see how we can get along, so without a saddle and only with a bridle. But since you're a dear friend, that's going to work, right, rubbing her face gently on his neck.
Would only know why Gillian leaves you here so alone, because if I'm not mistaken, I have seen a paddock with horses a little further? Or don't you get along with the others? "
After a two laps in the pasture where he had done exactly what she wanted, she rode to the gate with him to open it, half hanging from the horse.
So now show me how fast you are, click your tongue once and the stallion fired as if stung by the tarantula. It was a beautiful picture, the two looked like one. Because she lay on him more than she sat and enjoyed the wind that blew around her.
"Man, you're as quick as lightning. I could imagine that you could win races with a little training, ”she told the stallion, who played with his ears attentively to hear everything she said. "You know, it's wonderful to fly through the landscape with you. You can't call it any other way. "
While she was talking to the horse, she didn't notice that Gillian's yacht was approaching the island again.
"Damn, Dad's stallion is out again," Gillian heard his brother say. When he looked in the direction Jamie showed him and suddenly turned chalk white. Because at that moment Biggi had noticed them too and waved at them violently, what she called to them, unfortunately, he could not understand.
"Oh, my god, she's completely nuts now to sit on this devil horse. If he does something to her, the last hour has struck from this animal and if Dad is still so upset. ”Jamie, who was just about to steer the yacht to the dock, tries to calm him down. "Gil, take it easy. He seems to accept her and it looks more like than Blacky has finally found his new master or rather mistress. Or have you ever seen that he tolerated someone other than his previous owner? "
"Hello, you both nice that you are back, you have a great horse here, Gillian." They were greeted on land by Biggi, who had meanwhile also arrived at the jetty.
"Biggi are you coming down there please?" Gillian remarked when he saw his girlfriend approaching.
“I wasn't actually going to, because it is a little difficult to get back on him without a saddle. What do you think about coming up to me? He can get both of us to his stable. ”And held out her hand to help him up. But neither the horse nor Gillian thought much of it.
As the stallion became more and more restless, she tried to calm him down again: "Come my big one is peaceful. Gillian doesn't hurt you. He is just as nice as you and I would like to ride with you on him. It's not far to your stable. Do me this favor and let it up. I'll rub you myself and tomorrow we will ride out again. But if you go on jacking around now you can watch who will ride with you tomorrow, then I don't feel like it. "
It almost seemed to Gillian that this roast of satan understood everything. Because all of a sudden he was standing there very peacefully looking at him as if to say, but only this one time because she wanted to.
"Now come on Gillian, or I have to talk to you just like this horse. “And again held out his hand.
"My arm is getting lame, please. Otherwise I'll ride alone. ”Well, he didn't want that at all, so he had no choice but to jump up behind her, hoping that the stallion wouldn't get him down as usual. But he stopped as if it were the most normal thing in the world that Gillian was sitting on him. In a leisurely pace they rode to his stable. Gillian was glad that he and Biggi were back from Blacky, somehow he didn't trust the peace.
If he only thought of how they could barely save the last Jokey from his hooves and she rode for a walk as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
What kind of a woman had he laughed at himself, it wouldn't be boring with her that he already knew.
"Can you tell me why you chose this horse and not just another horse?" He asked her. Then she stopped brushing Blacky and said after a moment's thought: “Because I saw him first and because he reminded me of Black Devil. Hopefully the poor man now has at least one who dares to ride. Piet and Mike always avoid him. Once he thought he had to protect me from Piet. You should have seen him climb up and hit his hooves. ”And with a smile in her eyes she said. "Believe me, Piet didn't like it at all."
He could well imagine that. "But I don't know why it was back then either."
After a while, she was almost done with the grooming, she asked him: "Why didn't you want to climb up with me earlier?" "Because this devil horse has thrown me off as many times as I have been able to approach and I really don’t think it’s so great to fly off the horse in front of my girlfriend. Above all, where he apparently does everything you want with you. "
"I guess you were worried that your ego could suffer from it, believe me you will be all the more lovable if you stand by your weaknesses. You can't have so many mistakes that I couldn't love you, ”she replied to him.
Holding his girlfriend in his arms, it almost looked as if he never wanted to let her go, he said to her: "It is not so much about the fact that this roast of the devil threw me off, but you would not be the first to go with him going off his hooves. We could hardly save the last Jokey from his hooves. ”He didn't notice her astonished look. "Believe me, I don't know what I would have done if something had happened to you. I almost died on the ship in horror earlier, you know that? ”
"No, I didn't know that, otherwise I wouldn't have ridden him," she replied, huddling close to him. "I definitely didn't want to hurt you."
"Come on, let's go eat, otherwise Mamusch is still worried and sends Jamie to find us. Besides, if I'm honest I'm hungry for a juicy steak, aren't you? ”“ A steak with a delicious salad shouldn't be despised, maybe my stomach will be better afterwards. ”He got the answer while they went back together.
"I'm taking Jamie to the airport, what do you think if we go out a bit. Listen to some music and if you feel like dancing something. "" That sounds good. Maybe I'll have you all evening for me. ”At that performance she smiled all over her face. "When does it start?"
"Right away, I'm just waiting for Jamie. Come on, let's go to the yacht."
Some time later, the two entered a bar or a disco, more of an in-between. Really dim here, except for the usual disco lighting. Just as Birgid thought with this lighting, I might be lucky that nobody recognizes him and that I really have him for an entire evening. Did you hear a voice shouting, "Mr. Willis, nice to meet you. Surely you have a short time for me, for the promised interview. Again, I won't let myself get away. It doesn't take long either. "
"Biggi, sorry. But otherwise he doesn't leave us alone all evening, I already know him. Don't be angry. ”He tried to explain to her. "Why should I be angry, give me your interview. I will definitely find someone who has some time for me. Can you actually go out with yourself without being disturbed by someone? ”She really wasn't angry. She was cooking. She rushed off to get something to drink at the bar. She needed something now so as not to burst with anger.
You could hear them saying quietly and only for themselves: “Because of nice evening for two. You can go there alone. "
As she was standing at the bar and wondering what to drink, a young man approached her. "Would you like to dance?" "Yes, actually, but first I need something to drink, I just don't know what to take."
"Wait, I'll order something for you" turned around to the bartender and had a drink for her for a short time.
"Try it, actually don't know a woman who doesn't like it." It didn't look tasty, so poison green, but again it tasted very good.
"Mmh, that feels good. Now we can dance a little if you want to. ”He danced really well and had fun romping about on the dance floors. Because somehow she would have to get rid of her anger. At the same time, she hoped that Gillian would see her and get the interview over a little faster. After a few dances she said: "Come read us something else to go to the bar. What is your real name, I'm Birgid. "
"I am Martin. Are you on holiday here?"
"Yes, but unfortunately only for this week. I have to go home at the weekend.”
So deep in conversation she didn't notice how Gillian suddenly stood behind her.
Martin suddenly said: "Gosh Gillian, don't even know that you're back in the country. May I introduce you to someone I met earlier ... "
"Yes, I saw that you had a good time. I hope you were able to dispel her bad mood. She was really angry before, ”he talked to Martin and looked at me with a look that should have meant, be nice again, but I can't help it either.
"Are you saying you belong to him?" He asked me. "Belong to him? Well I would rather say I belong to me. But I'm here with him. If he has time and doesn't get in the way again. ”And the sarcastic tone in her voice said everything to the two.
"But can someone tell me why all pretty girls always belong to him?" He asked with mock despair. "I don't want to hope that? At least not tonight, right? “And looked at Gillian questioningly. After seeing a number of women in the bar who were significantly prettier, above all younger than them. At least I thought that was a big advantage for the others.
"If you two want to annoy me, I'll go straight back home. But I'll take you with madam. Not that you think you could have fun with Martin here, ”he threatened.
"Gillian you know what I have a much better idea, what do you think of a little dancing." And turned to Martin "Gillian and I are busy the rest of the evening and dragged him to the dance floor with me." To finally be happy and undisturbed hovering over the dance floor in his arms, almost like in seventh heaven and believe it or not, we really had the rest of the evening just for ourselves.
After an advanced hour, he asked, or rather said: "Come on, darling, let's go home, I know something much better than dancing."
It is hard to refuse such an invitation. At least not me, not from him, if I think about it, it couldn't be normal that you were so crazy about a man. He's still driving me to the last bit of mind.
How could that go on?
