Harvest Moon: Back to Nature
The Story
Spring 1st I had reached my destination! Here I was, at Grandpa's farm. He was dead, of course, but I was entrusted with his farm. It was a mess! There were weeds and boulders everywhere, not to mention the dead sticks. I took a look around and admired the barn and chicken coop. They were pretty small, but they had room for plenty of animals.
"Ah, you must be Jack. I've been waiting for you. I'm Mayor Thomas."
I must have looked really startled because a frown broke onto his face. He laughed wholeheartedly and smiled at me.
"Sorry, I must of startled you," he looked at the farm. "I know it's a bit of a mess, but." he looked down and shuffled his feet. "We don't mean to be testing you, but the villagers have decided we will give you three years to prove yourself worthy of the farm. Your grandfather took wonderful care of this farm and we want to keep it nice. I hope you understand."
I nodded my head. Great, I'm being tested. Can't I just live in peace? Instead I said, "I have great memories here. I remember when I came here at a young age.." My sentence trailed off.
The memories came flooding back. Mom had to cancel the family vacation because of her work. She told me I could stay at Grandpa's for as long as I like. I didn't like the idea at first, but now I'm glad I went. Grandpa's farm was so neat back then! He had tons of animals. I even tried to ride the cow. I fell off, of course. I had so much fun fishing, and trying to attack to chickens, and.and.
That's when I met her. The girl. I was lying in the forest thinking of the city when I heard a voice. The most beautiful voice I've ever heard. This small girl about my age stumbled into me. She asked me to tell her stories of the city and my family. We talked and sang on Mother's Hill almost everyday.
Time came when I had to leave. I said goodbye to Grandpa and just when I was leaving, she came. She looked so sad when she said goodbye. She made me promise her to come back.
I came back to reality in a flash. Thomas was looking at me. I came back. Now I just had to remember what she looked like.. Oh, great. That's going to be a challenge. "Well, I'll see you tomorrow. You should get some sleep. Tomorrow's gonna be a busy day!
I waved as he left. I trudged toward the house and walked in.
"Ack!" I said as I walked in. It..it.was so small! There was a bed, a television, a table, toolbox, and that was about it. I fell to the ground. This was going to be more difficult than I had anticipated.
How did you like it? I'll get the next day up soon! -KawaiiKirby
