Chapter Eighteen

Life sucked! It sucked, sucked, sucked! Rachel couldn’t believe her dad had agreed to this stupid idea. She’d report him to Child Protective Services. Then he’d wish he’d never subjected her to this…this humiliation. She pulled up the white mask Rory had handed her right before Mrs. Montgomery and Dad beat feet.

According to Rory, their job was to shovel out the excrement—that wasn’t exactly the word the dude used—and then spray the stall with water. She glanced down at her coveralls. They were splattered with said excrement. Gross! She’d never get rid of that smell. The only good thing was that Samantha was miserable, too.

Rachel was about to unload her last shovelful when all of a sudden she was hit by a spray of water. What the heck? Samantha!

She whipped around, and sure enough, Sam was pointing a hose at her. That girl was dead meat.

“Oops, I guess I missed.” The twinkle in her eye betrayed that silly lie.

Rachel pulled down her mask. “You are in so much trouble.” Sam had at least six inches on her, but Rach had a temper, and that was always an equalizer. She grabbed her hose and turned it on her nemesis.

Sam squealed and started running down the aisle between the pig stalls. Never one to back down from a fight, Rachel was well on the way to catching her when the hose was jerked out of her hand.

“Hey, you kids! Knock it off.” Rory folded a length of hose to cut off the water. “You’re upsetting my sows. March your butts right over to the office. Mr. Forsythe’s gonna want to have a chat with you.”

Sam held her hands up in a gesture of surrender.

All Rachel could think about was how pissed Daddy was going to be. She honestly didn’t want to upset him. Mama leaving had made a muddle of everything. Sure, she hadn’t been much of a parent—at least not after she met that man—but she was her mother.

That didn’t change the fact that Rachel hated everything about Oklahoma—the school, their house, Daddy’s job and the place in general. There wasn’t a tree in sight. God, she missed the green. The one saving grace was Colin and the riding. And that was only when Sam wasn’t at the barn, sticking her nose into things.

But now Rachel had to face the music. Back at her old school she had a reputation for being a Goody Two-shoes. Boy, they should see her now.
