One and Only
40 - Nick and Grace.

The ferocious horse made a response that seemed to say he wanted to eat the carrot that Yura gave him again

"If you want to eat the carrots again, you have to agree and follow my words," Yura said to the ferocious horse in front of her.

The ferocious horse neighed once again in agreement with Yura's words.

"If I agree with you, I'll give you this carrot again" said Yura, bidding once more on the fierce horse.

The fierce horse also moved its head as if nodding. Then Yura gave the carrot to eat the ferocious horse again.

"Good choice, smart horse .." murmured Yura praising the fierce horse.

"Miss Yura, how did you manage to persuade the ferocious one to want to obey you like this? You can even hold the food that the ferocious wants to grab even though the ferocious is a strong horse?" ask Rio

"The trick is to be gentle and firm at the same time and give a good choice so that the horse can not refuse in a good way anyway," Yura replied

"It was both horses, but the horse belonging to Aunt Yura was very good and willing to obey me," said Arsha who still fed carrots to Yura's horse.

"That's because Bibi's been familiar with Aunt's horse character for a long time, then Aunt's horse is enough to understand that you have a good and close relationship with Aunty, so she will also be kind to you, Arshas. Aunty's horse used to be fierce, the difference is that Bibi's horse is a female, while this one is a male" said Yura

"Miss Yura knows the character of horses very well, apparently. In that case, what kind of horse character does Miss Yura have after her ferocious attitude is gone?" ask Rio

"Of course, he's a tough fast guy. It's just that it's more submissive now than it used to be because we're very close and often together" Yura replied

"Then, the same as this brute. Because of the fierce character, this horse is being recommended and trained to be a war horse. Hence, I was hesitant when Miss Yura chose the ferocious one instead. However, if from the experience of Miss Yura's horse, it looks like this fierce horse can be tamed," said Rio

"I told you, I'm going to conquer this fierce horse. However, from earlier you kept calling him the fierce or fierce horse, actually what is the name of this horse? Do you know what his name is, Rio?" ask Yura

"I knew. His name is Nick" Rio replied

"Then call this horse after its name. It's worth it you're not familiar with Nick and it's worth Nick's character being so fierce and unruly, maybe Nick doesn't actually like the way people call him that. As if it is a form of protest because actually, even animals have a good understanding of language and human attitudes towards it" said Yura

"yes too. I never thought I'd get there. Sorry, Miss Yura .. " said Rio

"You should have said sorry to Nick, not to me, Rio. That's right, isn't it, Nick?" Yura who spoke to Rio and Nick in turn.

The fierce horse named Nick immediately neighs slowly as if agreeing and justifying Yura's words.

"I was wrong. Sorry, Nick .. " said Rio

The horse named Nick was just silent and coolly kept eating the carrots given by Yura.

"It looks like you still have to be more clever and often try to familiarize yourself with Nick, that's also if you want to get along with him .".

"If this Aunt's horse is what's her name?" ask Arsha

"Aibi Yura's horse's name is Grace" Yura replied

Yura starts to open Nick's horse-room fence.

"Had eaten enough carrots. Come on, let's get the horse out of this cage. Rio, help Arsha get Grace's horse out and bring her carrot out, too" Yura said

"alright. Come on, Crown Prince, let's get Grace out" Rio said

"Yes, please help, Mr. Rio .. " said Arsha.

Rio opened the fence of Grace's horse stall and pulled the straps of her control out of the stall while carrying a bag of carrots. Then, behind him was Yura who also pulled Nick's control rope to get out of the cage.

Grace and Nick's horses are placed in the meadow in the riding arena before being ridden during later practice.

"I will accompany and supervise here. Can I?" ask Rio

"Can. Since this time I will train Arsha by showing the practice of horse riding separately, you help keep an eye on Arsha during this exercise. However, you should not be noisy so as not to disturb Arsha's focus. You just need to be quiet while watching," Yura explained

"good. I understand, Miss Yura. I will definitely be silent a thousand languages," Rio said

"Supervising and looking at it from the far side is enough. What matters is that Miss Yura did not ask me to leave here. I assume it worked!" inner Rio

"So, what am I supposed to do this time, Auntie?" ask Arsha

"Yesterday Auntie taught you the basics of horse riding. However, in fact you have not been taught the most basic way when riding exercises, which is to approach. You have to follow Aunt's words and movements," Yura explained

Arsha simply nodded as she continued to stare towards Yura. Prepare to follow the teachings shown by Yura.

"When riding the horse we do not do it alone but with a horse, so we have to have good cooperation with the horse we are going to ride and at least we have to show closeness to the horse. First, touch the horse's head. Do it slowly so as not to scare the horse. If it fails, try again more gently and slowly. When your hands are touching and on the horse's head, give a gentle swab to the horse's head ." Yura said.

Arsha did as Yura did.

"Then, say approach remarks. Nick, I wish we could be as close friends as we are. Then, hug the horse by wrapping your arms around its neck" Yura gave an example to Arsha.

"Grace, I hope we can become as familiar as a close friend .. " muttered Arsha asked Yura's horse to speak, then hugged her.

"If your efforts are successful, reward the horse by feeding it well like the original carrot" Yura said

Rio who brought a bag of carrots also gave each of them a carrot to Yura and Arsha.

Arsha also feeds carrots on horses as Yura did.

"Give her a delicious meal while gently rubbing her horse's head and give her compliments as the horse eats voraciously. Good horse, smart horse ... " Yura continues to give Arsha an example of how to approach a horse.

"Good horse, smart horse .." Arsha murmured while feeding carrots while rubbing the horse's head.

Arsha does and follows what Yura teaches well. Arsha also seemed happy when trying to approach with Yura's horse named Grace.
