Maybe it won’t be so bad
Nancy grimaced as she pulled up her stiletto from the mud. Jack wasn’t even waiting for her anymore, he was already talking to the farmer. Why did he want cows? What were they going to do on a farm in the middle of nowhere, without the city and all its glory?
There was a patch of grass she could walk on. She would give him a piece of her mind. Again.
“I have the cows ready for you, Jack,” the farmer said. He gave her a strange look before escorting Jack closer to the pen. Nancy huffed, ready to explode. She pulled her sunglasses off to clean them. What was that?
She didn’t hear Jack walk back to her. “Cute, isn’t it?”
Nancy huffed, looking away from the calf that was staring at her. “When are we leaving?” she asked.
“I think she likes you.”
She turned her head back, smiling this time. The calf really was cute. And fluffy. “Cows are fluffy?”
Jack laughed. “I suppose you can find out soon. She’s coming with us.”
Excitement danced in her, rising to her heart. How strange.
Maybe it won’t be so bad after all.
Cows are cute though. Especially Highland Cattle. Also, I have no idea how farms work.

I’m not sure she will be so won over once she sees how much hard work is involved – maybe Jack will do it all. They are cute though! Nicely done.

Thank you Iain. I think it’ll hit her with a bang and Jack will have to do everything alone. But that calf in the picture is very cute though!

They are cute, but watch out for the mothers, if they think that you are a threat

Enjoyable story. She may find that she really likes having the cow around and learn more about it.She better be careful about naming it though! Unless, of course, it will be just a pet!

Ha. Nice story – now, the question is – will she feel it’s so cute when she has to clean up after it? (Unless Jack will take care of all of that). 🙂

Thank you! I think Jack will probably have to take care of all of that
