The Rich Girl
Melanie was called the “Rich Girl” in high school. She was not pleased with this nickname even though she really belonged to a rich family back in Texas. Her family owns a huge ranch with cows and horses and all those animals.
A rich girl trying to step out of his family’s shadow, Melanie decided to go to college in a California. I was one of the lucky ones who get to know the real Melanie. She was really kind, intelligent and sporty. She is fond of adventure and was the mechanical bull riding champ for three years in a row. Melanie was a real go-getter. She never used her family’s background or money to get where she is now.
During one of those holidays, Melanie invited a few of us to their ranch in Texas. We were really excited and raring to go. As soon as we arrived, we were awed by their huge house. There were magnificent horses in corrals and huge bulls too.
Texas was warm, but that didn’t stop Melanie’s parents from installing several outdoor fire places. We had a really great time at Melanie’s home in Texas. Her family were really accommodating. Plus, we learned how to ride horses.
