"Where's that darn brother of mine!?" Applejack mumbled to herself while watching towards their home road. She was so angry at him that she had been waiting for Big Macintosh to return from the town for about four hours. She was dead-beat. When Big Mac didn't show up to make evening chores with her, she had to make them all by herself. Now she was sitting on their house's porch, sipping apple family's home made whiskey. It was not like him, to forget his job at the farm, had something happened to him?
Just then Applejack saw familiar pony pacing towards their house. It was Big Macintosh. Applejack stood up and went to meet him. "You darn little piece of..." she shouted but calmed down a little. "Ah had to make all the jobs while ya were... well somewhere! Where have ya been mister!?"
Big Mac didn't slow down when he answered: "In a bar."
Applejack's eyes widened and she said: "In a bar!? Ya were in a bar while Ah had to make all yar jobs here!?"
"Eeyep," Replied Big Mac.
"Well Ah hope you had good time. Because when Ah am done with ya, ya gonna hope ya were never born!" Applejack said face red from anger.
"Ah had," Big Mac said.
"What?"
"Ah had good time," Big Mac said again.
Applejack saw how he smiled a bit while saying it. It was not a wicked smile, it was a happy smile. The kind that comes when you think of something really wonderful. Now a bit more curious than angry, Applejack asked: "With whom ya were there, anyways?"
Big Macintosh didn't answer. That annoyed Applejack and she said, with more stronger voice this time: "Big Macintosh Apple, tell me now!"
Big Mac looked at her and said: "Nope."
Then it struck Applejack. Big Macintosh usually would not act like this, unless...
"Big Mac, were ya out with a mare?" she asked with a sheepish grin on her face. She saw how Big Mac blushed and she knew. She started jumping around Mac, who was seemingly embarrassed. "Who is she? Tell me! Tell me! Tell me!" Applejack demanded. She received a short reply: "Nope"
"Oh come on!"
"Nope."
They were now on the doorsteps of apple family's house. Big Macintosh kept on walking towards the door when he heard Applejack saying: "Fine, Ah will find out sooner or later, you can't keep your secret forever ya know!"
Big Mac rolled his eyes as he went inside, leaving Applejack alone on the porch. She was angry at him, but happy for him at the same time. She saw half empty whiskey bottle on the doorsteps. She lifted it up and took long sip straight from the bottle, determined to find out who was dating Big Mac.
