A.N. After seeing Harvestmoonaddict's 100 theme challenge and reading an excellent one about Toby (by swingdancer23), I just HAD to write my own. This one's about Rick from Back to Nature. Hope you enjoy. As always, I don't own Harvest Moon or the characters from it.
Rick began to sweat as he started feeding the chickens. The man of the house has to take care of the responsibilities. He knew in the back of his mind though that he'd give anything to take a break. He had been working for hours and hours. My mom and Popuri depend on me! Rick pushed himself harder, ignoring the pain surging through every limb of his body. As he finished feeding the last chicken, he collapsed. I suppose it's quitting time! Rick forced himself up and decided to relax at the river behind his house. That oughtta be nice.
A.N. It'll get better in later chapters. Also, make sure to check out swingdancer23's story about Toby at
