“Do what you love.”
I turned to look at her again. “What do you mean?”
“You’re an equestrian, why don’t you teach?”
“Teach?”
“Sure. You have a beautiful horse. You have friends with stables and riding arenas. Why not?”
I paused. “I don’t jump anymore.”
“But you can teach jumps, can’t you?”
I sat up. A spark of hope rushed through me. “Teach riding?”
“You’re an Olympian. Why couldn’t you?”
“People think I’m just a party girl.”
“I think you would be surprised to find that people think more highly of you than you realize.”
“But I choked.”
She shook her head and smiled. “Oh, Camille, you can keep making excuses or you can do something. Teaching was merely a suggestion.”
“What do I do about Jacob?”
She reached up to turn off the lamp. “Nothing. I have a feeling Jacob is more worried about what you’re doing to him than the other way around.”
In the dark I said, “Thank you, Nora.”
“You’re welcome, Camille.”
