<div style="text-align: justify;">Alexia was starting to feel like herself again. Staying alone for a while and having time to take a nap had helped, as had knowing that her son was in good hands. Mom and Dad had always been great grandparents for him, and of course, Conor was there as well. With her mind at ease, Alexia had been able to get a refreshing nap and wake up feeling much better. She felt a little ashamed as she walked up to where the family would have their picnic. They had probably worried about her, and Alexia hated making people worry for no reason other than her erratic moods. <br/><br/>Pushing these thoughts aside, Alexia decided she would apologize to the family and then try to enjoy her time with them. <br/><br/>Her walk to the area near the barn, where the horses were, was pleasant. The sun was pleasant, and so was the breeze, and it helped lift her mood. When she finally reached a point where she could see both horses and people, Alexia smiled. It seemed like everything was going well. Even River seemed to be behaving. She sighed softly, wishing she could ride a little, but unsure whether or not she should. Deciding that it was better to be safe than sorry, Alexia opted for simply sitting and watching everyone else ride.<br/><br/>Standing to the side as everyone placed the leads on the horses, Alexia would start walking along as they led the animals, keeping away from their path. <br/><br/>The woman would keep silent for a few moments, only speaking very quietly once the whole family was close enough to hear her. “Sorry if I worried anyone”, Alexia muttered, sighing softly. “I’ll try not to do it again”, she completed, really hoping her family could forgive her for nearly snapping at them.</div>
