Jacob’s Tale - Amish Romance

Naomi's impression of Jacob was not all that pleasant. He came across as rude, selfish, and downright cold. The entire village realized that he was a bit of a troublemaker. When Naomi's father requires some extra help around the farm, he reaches out for Jacob's help at his father's recommendation, much to Naomi's dismay. She spends her days avoiding him and being infuriated by him. She becomes so angry that she starts to notice when her sister starts to act and think the same way.
And just before winter hits, her father needs even more help around the farm, Naomi steps up to help. One of the family horses is rowdy and unruly, and Naomi has difficulty controlling her. Narrowly avoiding an accident, she discovers something unexpected about Jacob, something that could change the way she sees him for the rest of her life. A standalone short story, with no cliff-hangers.
