The Secret Life of Nook Chapter 1: Seth's Suspicions
It was a bright sunny day and Seth was about to get off shift. It was around 4:30 p.m. and Seth was getting really tired of work. It had only been a week since Nook had offered him a full time job at Nook 'n Go. Nook was so impressed with the human boy's work he decided he needed extra help. So, there sat Seth in the back room sorting boxes of seeds, saplings, and stationery paper. Nook walked in and started nagging at him about coming in early the next day to learn how to run the cash register. The phone in the office started to ring, as Seth was finishing putting the boxes in stacks of three. Nook was just standing there staring at the clock.
"Ummmmm... Mr. Nook the phone is ringing," Seth said hoping he wouldn't get yelled at again.
"Hmmmmm," he said in reply, "I'll go get it. If anyone comes in just keep them occupied until I get done." He went to his office and answered the phone."Hello...Yes this is Nook...Is that so...I will keep my eye out...No I haven't see it┘Just a second," he looked at Seth who was standing at the counter listening to the conversation. He shut the door so that Seth couldn't hear what was being said.
An hour had passed since Nook had closed the door and Seth was still standing at the counter looking out the door. I wonder what is taking him so long, Seth thought. Good thing today is pretty slow. He better hurry up because it is almost time for me to go home. Just then Nook came out and he was acting really strange.
"Seth, my boy, how would you like to get off early today," said Tom Nook. "And tomorrow you can just have the day off. On Monday I will teach you how to run the cash register and maybe even have a surprise for you."
"Sir, are you feeling alright?" asked Seth giving Nook a suspicious look.
"I feel great," said Nook staring at Seth with a blank look on his face. "Why? Did you hear something from my conversation?"
"No, sir," Seth said, "It's just you gave me a three day weekend."
"Oh come on now, it's not like this old raccoon is insensitive," Nook said grabbing the 'CLOSED' signed and Seth's jacket. "Now come a long, you need to get home before dark."
Seth left the shop and made his way home. On his way there, he decided that the next day he was going to go speak to some of the animals that live in Colorado and see if they knew anything about the way Nook was acting. They probably would since they have lived there much longer than he had.
When Seth got home he laid on his couch since he still couldn't manage to find a bed in town. He lay awake for hours thinking of possible causes for Nook to act so unusual. Around midnight he finally feel asleep.
