Hitomi: Hi! While I am not new to the Harvest Moon fandom, this is the first time writing for it… I need a break from my other fandoms and this writer's block has been really irritating me. So, I thought I'd give this a shot.
Of course, I am conflicted on the pairing… :P Not that I'm telling. I guess I'll be experimenting on that. This chapter is based on the heroine's point of view. Then, the rest will be put in third person.
Disclaimer: I don't own Harvest Moon. Natsume does. I only own Alice.
Everything Comes and Goes
Prologue
You think I'm running away, I'm sure, if you see me moving about in my house and packing up.
Well, maybe I am.
However, I think of this journey more as a change of scenery, just something that will give me a breath of life. No, before you jump to conclusions, I don't have a bad life here at home at all. I have a loveable family and cherished friends. But…
I can't stay here anymore because so much has happened. It has gotten to the point I can't go anywhere to have peace without being reminded of it. I can't stand it, so I need to do this. I need to do this, even if it means breaking out of the cage that is my normal routine.
Selfish as this may be and, sure, it can be seen as inconsiderate too…
Nothing will change my mind as I've already made my decision. I won't look back.
Whatever happens, I'll see it through. Time to change everything about myself, although I will keep contact with my loved ones… If I'm going to make a new start, I'll have to throw everything away about my old life except my name.
My name, you're asking?
It's Alice, Alice Fair.
