I nearly toppled backward, but thanks to the timely intervention of my masters, I was safe.
They both caught me, angst and worry filled their face as they feared for the worst.
"That was very reckless," Seo-Jun claimed.
"And dangerous," Min-Cheol added.
So now they're on the same page.
"I knew you'd save me regardless," I said to them. "Now, help me up."
They managed to set me up steadily and then I balanced on the horse.
Wow, it was high. I was high.
They made sure my legs were inside the saddles properly, to avoid an accident and I laughed.
Regardless, horse riders were amazing.
When Jie-Yu did it, it looked like a breeze but when I tried to do it, it felt like being asked to prove a quadratic equation I spent the whole week calculating.
But at least I got on the horse safely.
I was lucky this time but I don't think I'll want to get on a horse on my own the next time.
"See?" I said, my chest puffed in pride. "I did it."
