Alessandra had grown calmer and more quiet as the days passed; therefore, she avoided getting in trouble with Adrian as she had done in her first day. In return, Adrian had also grown-- Nicer in a way, and she greatly appreciated it. Although she was almost always following Adrian around, Adam had managed to come into the picture. Adam was nice, gentle, and Alessandra would consider him the closest thing to a friend-- Even if the other handmaidens weren't as open to Alessandra as she had hoped. 

She was greatly missing her family, but she had also written for them a few times, most times she didn't get a reply back. It made her feel more weighed and worried about what could be going on with them, but she also felt hurt. Didn't they miss her as much as she missed them? Want her back? Think of maybe one day being able to pay off the debt and bring her home? In a way, she didn't want to go home. She was then leading a systematic, more pleasurable life, but she was still a little home sick. 

Asking Adrian to teach her how to ride was no easy task for her; She was terrified of his reaction, surprisngly he took it quite well and even acknowledged it. He took the time and effort to teach her the basics and all the know-hows.

Alessandra fidgeted excitedly as he picked out Snow Queen; Ignoring his comment about the 'bother' it would be to bring her back bruised snd hurt. She learned to let the comments slide without giving it much thought. She was in proper attire to ride a horse and so got on Snow Queen's back quite easily. The excitement was written all over her as she slowly urged the horse, and she started moving. 

Alessandra giggled slightly, obviously proud when she noticed the smile Adrian held-- It was a rare sight for sure, but she couldn't help but think that he only looked a lot more handsome that way. A lot more approachable, but she held back her comments as she focused on the horse. 

A few minutes later, she climbed off her horse with a little difficulty to stand by Adrian. 

"[color=97228f]Thank you, your majesty.[/color]" She said softly, smiling up at him. "[color=97228f]I really do appreciate it.[/color]"
