Author's Note: I'm trying a new direction here. All comments appreciated. I do not own any of the Harvest Moon characters…yet.

I walked down the path enjoying the green view of the landscape. The wind blew my brown hair around

and the sun shined brightly in the sky. I was almost there, ready to start on a farm once again. The farm

came into view and it was…less than I thought it would be. I looked around in despair. How could

somebody let this property look so bad? The field was covered in braches and stones with leafy weeds

sprung up all in between. I just gawked at the field and the buildings, looking around I saw a figure. I

turned around then suddenly, "Boo!" I yelped and then settled into a hard glare… Thomas. "Hehe,

scared you didn't I, Jill" he chuckled. "I swear you follow me everywhere I go" I said bitterly. Why can't I

escape from this weirdo. "Looks like you fell for the ad in the newspaper…" he started. I cut him off "No,

I came here for my own reason. Why are you here anyway?" "Well you see I am the mayor of this town

and I do the shipments for Forget-Me-Not Valley too, darn that rock, paper, scissors game" he took a

deep breath "So why aren't you in Forget-Me-Not V-". "That's none of your business" I said plainly "Now

spare me the chitchat of the introduction and give me the keys to the house, I already payed." I started

to reach for my hammer and I could see the fear in his eyes as he gulped. Thomas threw the key at me

and bolted off the farm. I chuckled to myself and proceeded to look into the house. I pushed the door

open and switched on the light. It was a very plain room but I could make do. I opened the windows to

let out the old stale air and walked back outside. The field needed some tender loving care so I tidied it

up. My back hurt as I brushed the dirt off my pants. The sunset was beautiful, the golden rays touching

everything. I walked inside and closed the windows. Tomorrow I will start new once again. I closed my

eyes and before I knew it I had drifted off into sleep.

AN: I know this chapter is not very long, future chapters will be if this story is liked enough. Thanks for reading!
