Tina grinned. She hadn’t been on a horse in seventeen years. Her brain needed refreshing, sure, but her body certainly didn’t.

"Be careful, Tina," Robert called. "Don’t fall."

"Don’t worry about me," she replied, tossing her hair cockily.

She spurred the gelding. He took off. She held on for two minutes before he dropped her. She hit the ground, heard a crack, and felt her arm snap in half.

Tina swore loudly. Robert ran up to her.

"Are you okay?" he asked, panicked.

"No! My arm is broken!"

Robert sighed. Heard the owner calling the paramedics. Kissed her on the forehead and mentally resolved never to take her riding for her birthday again.
