Tears and Love
Disclaimer: I don't own Harvest Moon. Chiki is my original character though.
Chiki was a girl of 22 returning to her birthplace of Mineral Town. She left the town when she turned 18 to pursue a career in the arts, but ended up leading a very boring life.
She was here for two reasons. One, to move back onto her parents farm, and two, to attend her parents funeral.
Her chocolate brown hair went past her shoulder blades and she was dressed in all black. Her moss green eyes were filled with tears. She sat in the church sobbing as the other townsfolk entered to mourn with her.
"Chiki, is that you?" said a familiar voice. Chiki turned to find Saibara, the blacksmith, staring at her. "Saibara!" she exclaimed hugging him. The man had always been kind to her when she was a child.
He patted her on the back. "I sure am gonna miss your folks. Damn good people, they were." She continued to sob as more familiar and some younger, unfamiliar faces filed in. A boy about her age with auburn colored hair sat next to Saibara.
"Chiki, this is my grandson, Gray." Gray bowed his head to her. "I'm sorry for your loss. Your parents were kind to me when I first came here to learn under my grandfather." Chiki nodded to him in acknowledgement.
Gray removed his hat and the ceremony began. Chiki continued to cry for the majority of the funeral. Unsure of what to do, Gray and Saibara exchanged nervous glances.
As the coffins were being lowered into the ground Saibara whispered to Chiki "Why don't you come over to my place after this? I'll have Gray fix you something good to eat." Chiki looked at him, her eyes shiny with tears and red from crying, and nodded gratefully. "That... would be wonderful. Thank you."
Saibara smiled. "It'll do you some good now come along. We best be headed over." He turned to Gray "Gary! Come on, we're gonna get this girl something to eat!" Gray nodded solemnly and followed. "You can go get reacquainted with everyone else tomorrow, okay?" he said gently. She nodded and off they were.
