PLOT OF THE STORY

EXPOSITION

Sabiano Fernandez is a well-known master horse-breaker, as well as a master of both

animals and people. He is well-known for being wealthy, having a large plot of property and an
unrivalled string of horses. He was also noted for his arrogance and domineering temperament.
Nonetheless, because of his outstanding reputation he was hired by a ranch owner to break in the
fifty unbroken colts.

RISING ACTION

Blasa, the ranch owner's daughter, a pretty little brunette, conceited, a typical rich girl,
became interested to Sabiano, who represented a conquest that would fill her pride. Sabiano, on
the other hand, appears to be uninterested in her, despite which she continues to pursue him.
Sabiano's indifference irritated Blasa, who became enraged even though she was impressed on
how Sabiano break in her colt. At the dinner, she exclaimed with contempt that between and a
colt and a horse-breaker, the bigger brute wins but Sabiano answered with an unusual sweet tone,
that to be able to master, one must first know how to master himself. Sabiano announced his
departure two months later, when the herd had been broken in. There was a fiesta in the ranch
the day after his departure. Blasa approached him with unexpected politeness and requested a
dance, but Sabiano politely declined. Blasa once again feel rejected.

CLIMAX

Blasa made an angry gesture when she was rejected again, but she kept her cool like an
obedient woman and verified to see whether Sabiano would truly leave. After Sabiano confirms
it, she is unable to contain her emotions, prompting her to proclaim her love for him.

FALLING ACTION

Sabiano acknowledged Blasa's confession, admitting that he had known about her
feelings for as long as she had known about his affections for her. He also complimented her on
how restrained and mastered she is, saying he preferred her that way than an unruly mare.

RESOLUTION

Blasa completely surrendered to Sabiano, much like a well-trained mare.
