Later that day, Mr Carter arrived while Sam was busy chopping wood. Sam didn't bother to look
up until his boss spoke, holding out a pile of letters that Sam had neglected to collect. But that
wasn't the reason for Mr Carter's visit. After some small talk, he revealed that he had brought his
son with him, who was having some trouble at school. Sam couldn't help but feel apprehensive
about the idea of a teenager on the ranch, but he didn't voice his concerns.
As Sam and Mr Carter looked out at the vast property, they both knew that it would be
impossible for the boy to escape on foot. But Sam couldn't help but wonder if the boy could ride.
The ranch offered endless possibilities for a skilled rider, but also posed great danger for
someone unfamiliar with horses.
For Sam, the ranch was his reality, his escape from the rest of the world. He knew that a vacation
would mean returning to a place that even people like Mr Carter tried to avoid. But for the boy,
the ranch could mean something different . It could be a place of refuge or a place of rebellion.
Sam could only hope that the boy would find what he was looking for in the vast expansion of
the ranch.
