Jack nodded as she spoke. Hugo was so yougn looking. And so was was Dorothee. He hten began to wonder how old she was now. No doubt she was younger than himself, bu. He shook his head slighly. It didn't matter. Why would he care anyays.
After sorting through two stacks of photo's, Jack only found on ethat was had Dorothee, and a man who appeared to be her father. "You don't have a lot of photos with your family." he commented, glancing over ot her.

" that was because my dad was always at work and my mother, was too busy taking pictures of me....she was kind of obsessed." She said with a chuckle. She finished her box then went to place the photos that she had sorted with the ones he had.

"I see. My father was gone all the time too, because of work." he commented as he got up and walked over to Dorothee, handing her the stacks of photos that he had finished. "Why come to Howe?" he then asked, curious as to why she picked this small, western American town to live in.

" I wanted a getaway from the big towns. They were too crowded." she said with a chuckle when she searched all the towns she had thought of on google maps.

Jack smiled to himself, that too was why he came to Howe. He also wanted to be as far away from home as he could. Well, he only wanted to be far away where the people spoke english, otherwise he'd be completely lost. "Are you looking for a job?" he asked, sitting down next to her.

"Well that only depends if you are looking." he replied in the same tone with a smirk. He aised his brow a bit as if he were waiting for her. Jack took and empty photo ablum and started to put his stacks of photographs in it.

"Well if you like, you cuold come and work at the barn." He wasn't sre if she wanted to spend so much time around horses, especially Hugo, even though she had had abreakthrough with him. "But that'll mean having to put up with me and my non stop gob all day." he said with a smirk.

"Yeah. it's a blast. Mucking out stalls, hauling hay bales and feed bags. I'd say its pretty fun" he joked. "Well I'll have to think about it. I highly doubt you've been around worse. But if you really think you can handle it." he smirked at her. He now spoke in a more serious tone. "Of course you are wlcome to work at the stable Dorothee."

"Alright, we'll have to see about that." he joked as he finished with one picture stack and moved into the next, setting the completed album aside. "Well lets see. I'll have you come at four thirty in the morning and you have to stay until ten at night. you only get two twenty minute breaks the whole time you are there." he said jokingly. "Now seriously. I don't even get there until around 9 am, so how about any where from nine to nine fifteen?" he paused to pick up a new photo album and start on that. "If I don't have lessons, I'm usually there until five or six. If I do have riding students coming for lessons I'm there until about nine. You can leave any time you want to after three."

"Geez Dorothee!" he exclaimed at her comment about getting u pat five in the morning. "I'm not sure how you do it. I'd probably die if I got u pthat early everyday. But then again I stay up until who knows when. Sleep just isn't my thing. I swear I go to sleep at about three every morning." Jack smiled a bit as she said that his hours sounded good to her. "You might be getting to the barn before me sometimes. It depends if I catch the bus or not. I still have to ix that bloddy car of mine. I'v been putting it off for a good two weeks or so now." he commented.
"I would take the car to the auto shop, but the past four times I've been there, the idiot mechanics couldn't fix it correctly. So after the fourth time, I told 'em that I'm never comin' back for their 'quality service'." he said, explaining why he didn't just take his truck into the automotive shop. "Any ways, enough about my car problems."
"Now about the job." he said, ready to give her a run through of what the days would be like. "In the morning you will help me feed the horses and then turn them out. When the horses are out, we will muck out stalls and fill the horses' water buckets, and the troughs in the fields if need be. After that it's usually about time to take a break and eat. When ever you come back from your break, you will work on sweeping the aisles and grooming stalls, and just organizing the tack room if it needs it. That never takes long. And then, only if you want to, you can help exercise horses wether it be riding them, or lunging them. then finally it's time to bring in the horses and feed them, then you can go home." he stopped. "I know it sounds like a lot, but it really isn't once you get into the routine of it. Trust me." he said with a smile.
