Seth raised his hoe, and carefully, very carefully, tilled the soil. Placing the hoe to the ground, he grabbed a bag of Tomato seeds nearby, and planted some into the ground. He sighed, and brushed his forehead with his hand, which was getting sweaty.
Standing up, he walked over to his dog, Jake. Jake barked upon seeing Seth, and ran over to greet him.
"Jake! Thatsa good boy!" Seth said happily, trying to restrain Jake from jumping on him.
"Seth!"
Seth turned. Takakura was walking towards him.
"What is it, Taka?"
"The shipment got in."
Seth's eyebrows raised. "And?"
"Go look for yourself." Takakura gestured towards the Shipment building.
Seth let go of Jake, and slowly walked over to open the door.
"Holy crap! How much money is that?"
"Around 6,523 Gold," Takakura replied. "I must say, I've never seen a cow give that much milk before..."
"Cows. Plural," Seth corrected. "This is tight! Wait till everyone hears about this!"
"They'll be surprised, eh?" Takakura grinned.
Seth walked over to the field fence. Fiona, one of the cows, trekked over and mooed at Seth.
"Yup. Thatsa good girl! You keep on with that milk!"
"Hey now, don't overwork that poor fella," Takakura said, concerned. "Anymore milk, and she'll dry out."
"Heh. You're probably right," Seth responded. "Come on, lets go into town."
---
As Seth left his farm boundaries, a voice rang out.
"Seth!"
Seth looked around. It was Muffy.
"Muffy! How are ya!"
They embraced in a hug, then a kiss.
"Just fine, Seth," she smiled. "I still can't believe we're getting married."
"Me either," Seth muttered. "It's like its going all too fast..."
"Don't worry," Muffy insisted. "It'll cool down."
Takakura cleared his throat loudly. "Seth?"
"Oh!" Muffy said in shock. "Was I interrupting you two?"
"No, its fine," Seth ensured. "Now, get back to the Blue Bar, Griffin probably has something for you to do."
"Right. See ya later!"
Muffy turned and ran for the Blue Bar.
"How does it feel to be engaged?" Takakura asked Seth after a while.
"Like nothing I ever felt before," Seth responded.
"I felt the same way when I got married," Takakura said. "We had some good times... but diseases get ahold of people..."
Takakura sighed, and closed his eyes for a few seconds.
"I'm... sorry to hear that, Taka," Seth said quietly.
"No problem," Takakura said. "Come on, lets get busy."

As Seth and Takakura entered Vesta's Farm Celia greeted them.
"Hi, Seth! Hi, Takakura!"
"Yo Celia! Whats UP?" Seth called.
"Nothing, really," Celia said. "So, what can I get you guys today?"
"Oh, a pack of strawberries, thanks," Seth responded.
"Six or Twelve?" Celia asked.
"Uhm... twelve."
"Coming right up." Celia turned and went to get the seeds.
"So..." Takakura said.
"So what?"
"What else are we gonna spend our dough on?"
Seth laughed. "Very funny. Its not often I get that rich."
"True," Takakura nodded, "but you shouldn't waste it all away in one day."
Celia returned with a small box of seed bags. "Here you are! That'll be 360 Gold."
Seth handed her the money, while she gave him the box. "Great! See you guys later!"
"Bye!" Seth and Takakura left the farm.
Seth gave the box to Takakura. "Take this to the farm and meet me down by Inner Inn after you put it in the tool shed."
"Got it." Takakura went off to the farm to carry out his duty.

Seth walked into town, taking a look around at the scenery. He was about to enter the Inner Inn, when suddenly...
"Moi!!!"
CRASH.
Murrey ran into him at full speed, knocking him over.
"Waaaaah! What the-"
Seth slowly got up after he regained the air in his lungs. "Murrey, watch where you're going!" he gasped.
"Moi... sorry," Murrey responded. "There was t-this insect, w-which bite me..."
Rock ran outside from inside the Inn. "Seth, you okay?"
"Yeah, Murrey accidentally ran into me."
"At that speed? I'm thinking it was intentional."
"Moi... big bug bite. V-very bad."
"Let me see," Seth said, looking at Murrey's arm. "Doesn't look too bad."
"Y-you think so?" Murrey asked.
"Sure. Run along now."
Murrey walked off for the Springs.
"Geez, that looked like it hurt. You okay?" Rock asked again.
"Yeah. I'm fine," Seth said.
They entered the Inn and went into the kitchen.
"Can I get ya some food? You look hungry."
"Yeah, why not?"
Takakura entered. "Seth, you ready to go?"
Seth jumped. "On second thought, Rock, maybe later. I have to go."
Rock nodded. "No problemo," he said. "See ya around, Seth."
---
"What time is it?"
Takakura checked his watch. "Near Seven P.M," he responded.
Seth nodded. "Come on, lets go back to the farm. We need our rest."
