A/N:Sooo this is a new story that I thought would be good. It is about a rich girl but she isn't snobby, she's just...dumb at times. Since Jill doesn't talk, I thought it would be fun to write as her. This takes place in HM: DS Cute, and I will do review replies in this story so...yeah. I will be answering questions and dedicating chapters to certain people. Anyways, please enjoy and R&R!
I looked at myself in the mirror, as I slowly clasped my black and silver engraved locket on. I brushed my thumb over it as tears started to roll down, one by one. All I wanted to do was break down and cry, just cry and pour out all my emotions. But I had to be strong, because that was the one thing he wanted me to be when this happened.
'Jill, let's go. We're going to be late.'
I turned to my right, and gave my mom a nod. She opened my door wider, and pulled me into a hug. I knew it hurt her just like it hurt me, but she didn't want to let it show. After all, he was a big part of our lives. We got this far because of him.
My mom let me go, wiping away the rest of my tears. 'Come on, your dad is waiting for us outside.'
I followed her out my room. Everything seemed so quiet now. Even if he didn't live with us, it was quiet. I entered the car and got a weak smile from my brother, Jack. Jack was my oldest brother. We don't always agree on stuff, but today we had to do our best.
I bet you're wondering who I'm talking about. Well, today is my grandfather's funeral. He died yesterday after having a heart attack. The doctors said that after some sort of mob formed, his heart stopped on him. My grandfather left the city years ago, but 2 years ago he owned a company called a farm.
Tears started to come back when we made it to the cemetery. Most of my family was there, and so were a few of our friends. As I walked towards the coffin, one of my friends Claire came up to me.
She looked down and started to play with her thumbs. 'I'm sorry about your loss, Jill. Really.'
I smiled. 'It's ok Claire. It's not like you killed him. I'll be ok.'
She put her hand over my shoulder and we both walked to the coffin. While the pastor was talking, I closed my eyes, and began to remember all the good times I had with my grandfather. Like when my first tooth fell out, when I was 5.
~*-Flashback-*~
'GramGram! My mouth is bleeding! Am I going to die?' Jill yelled, on the brink of tears.
The old man opened her mouth and inspected it. After finding the cause of her bleeding, he went to get some string. He called the young girl to the restroom and told her to sit down.
'What are you going to do?' She asked, tears pouring down her face.
'You have a loose tooth and I'm going to pull it out. Don't worry, you'll be ok.'
He tied the piece of string around her front tooth. He yanked it a little, which made Jill flinch. Then in a few seconds he pulled the tooth out without her noticing it.
Jill looked at her grandfather. 'Are you going to pull it out?'
Her grandfather held up her tooth. 'Already did.'
~*-Flashback-Ends-*~
I used to think it was amazing how he used to pull out my teeth without hurting me. Then again, he was never capable of hurting anyone. Once the pastor finished talking, I was asked to give a speech. I walked up to the front and said anything that popped up in my mind.
I cleared my throat. 'As most of you know, I'm not good with words. Or anything at that.'
I heard voices in the crowd say, 'That is true' or 'You're right about that' and the occasional, 'You're not the brightest kid'.
For some reason, those insulting words made me smile.
'So I'll make this short. My grandfather was an incredible person. He was also a happy one, too. No matter what happened, he would still have a smile on his face.'
Sounds of agreement started to come from the crowd.
I continued. 'I bet when he passed away, he had a smile on his face. And I just want to let him know that whatever happens, I'll be smiling with him.'
I threw a white rose on his coffin and suddenly ran to the car with tears rolling down my face. I put my knees up to my chest and hid my head between them. I soon heard footsteps coming towards the car, and the door next to me opened.
Jack came inside and gave me a hug. 'Jill, are you ok? Put on your seat belt, we're going home.'
Jack held me all the way home, and when we got there, I already stopped crying. He removed a piece of hair away from my face.
'Are you ok now?' he asked.
I pulled away from Jack and flashed him a smile. 'Yeah, thanks.'
I got out of the car and rushed into my house. My mom and dad were already inside looking at a piece of paper. Curious, I took a seat next to my dad and tried to read the paper, but it wasn't working.
'Hey dad, what's that paper?' I asked him.
He looked down from the paper. 'This is my dad's will. And it says here...that he gave you his farm.'
I was shocked. My grandfather gave me his company? Excitement was building up inside me and a smile grew on my face.
'Tomorrow we will take you. There, your grandfather's friend will wait for you.'
Happy, I ran upstairs and jumped onto my bed.
~*The-Next-Morning*~
Today wasn't as gloomy as yesterday. It seemed happier but had a hint of sadness. I ran downstairs with my suitcase, nearly falling down in the process. I looked around my house for the last time, kissing goodbye to everything. When I got into the car, I slowly fell asleep, waiting for my destination.
'Jill, wake up. We're here.'
I opened my eyes, little by little, and saw my mom's face. She opened the door for me and helped me get out of the car. I gave her a hug before running to my father and giving him one. Jack smiled at me before saying, 'I'm going to miss you.'
That made me run and give him the biggest hug I can. I just realized that I'm going to miss all of them, and being away from them won't be easy.
My dad took out his wallet. 'Here, this is a little something to start you off.'
He put the money in my hands. Jack helped me count the money and told me I had 150,000 G. After putting the money in my suitcase, I climbed the steps of the boat. I waved goodbye to them one last time, as the boat started to sail.
I took a deep breath, while looking out at the sea. Ever since I was young, the sea always amazed me. To know that little creatures called fishes live in there and stuff. The color of the ocean is also very beautiful, it's like sea-green or a blue-green type of color. When I looked up, we were close to an island.
Once we got super close, I saw a guy in like his 50's waiting at the dock. That must be my grandfather's friend. He looked scarrier than I expected. The boat stopped exactly where the dock was, and I was the only one getting of the boat. I looked at the guy in front of me, and when he noticed me he smiled. Maybe he's nicer than he looks, hopefully he is.
He took my suitcase and led me to the farm. 'You look bigger than the picture,' he said.
I slowed down. 'What picture?'
'A picture of you that your grandfather showed me,' he paused. 'Your name is Jill, right?'
I snapped out of my thoughts and focused on him. 'Yeah, my grandfather named me.'
'Oh,' He seemed to pause again, 'I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Takakura, I live at the farm.'
So he lives at the farm, too? Great, so much for privacy. 'Nice to meet you,' I said.
When we got to the farm, I was highly disappointed. There was just a house...made out of wood! And the rest was just soil, plain dirt. There was also a dog house, but no dog!
I combed my hair with my fingers. 'So this is a farm? I thought it was a company that sells food.'
Takakura raised an eyebrow. 'Like a supermarket?'
'So that's what it's called! I thought it was called a grocery store?' I began to think to myself.
He started to laugh. 'Well, a farm is like a company. You still sell stuff and make money.'
'Oh,' was the only thing that came out of my mouth. I thought it would be better to look around the farm for a bit.
'There is a stable here for horses,' he told me. 'Let me show you how to ship things.'
We walked to a box with a lid, which flipped opened. Takakura told me that you put anything you want to sell in here, and Thomas, the new mayor of this island, will collect everything at 5 p.m. Then by the next morning you should have the money.
'So how do you get the money? Does he mail it to you?' I asked.
Takakura closed the shipping bin. 'No, he just puts it into your farming expenses.'
Satisfied with everything I've learned, I took my suitcase and said farewell to Takakura. I opened the door to my house and puit my suitcase on the ground. The inside of the house wasn't so bad. I had a bed on the left side, including a trash can, record player, and a telephone. It wasn't one of those cell phones, but I could manage.
Everything I needed was already inside the house. I even got these two things that look like treasure chests. One said, 'Clothes Box' and the other one said. 'Tool Box'. I went to the one that said, 'Clothes Box' and started to put my clothes away. My grandfather's old dresser was there, which was attached to a mirror. So I put all of my other beauty supplies on there.
Once I finished unpacking, I sat on my bed which made a big squeaking sound. I looked down at my shoes and noticed that I had short heels on. But since I'm not farming today, it shouldn't be a big deal. I looked at the clock and noticed that it was only 10:12 p.m. Since I don't know anything about this place, I should explore.
I left the house quietly, just in case Takakura yells at me for being out so late. I walked down the path and ended up next to a big building. I ignored it and began walking, just to look at the other buildings. Suddenly one of my heels broke, causing me to fall. But I fell on something smooth, and it wasn't the dirt. I slowly opened my eyes, only to find myself on a person.
I quickly got up and brushed off any flying dirt that came on me. The other person seemed to get up, also. I took a better look and saw that the person was a guy, which made me blush with embarrassment. He had unusual silver hair, that shined when the moon hit it. His leopard patterned shirt and purple pants made him look fancy. When he opened his eyes, I almost screamed. His eyes were the same color of the sea, which is my favorite color.
The guy looked at me and smiled. 'Beautiful maidens like yourself shouldn't be out this late.'
'Well, I'm new here and I wanted to explore. Who are you anyways?' I asked.
He smirked. 'So you don't know? I'm Phantom Skye, lady's man and Prince of the stars.'
Is this guy serious? 'Yeah right! And I'm Princess of the sun,' I said in a sarcastic tone.
'Hehe, The sun is the biggest star in the world, so that makes you my princess,' he told me smoothly.
I paused for awhile. 'Really? This is the newest thing I've heard since Pluto wasn't a planet! No wonder I failed science.'
Skye raised an eyebrow and began to walk away. 'It's a good thing you're beautiful.'
'What is that suppose to mean?'
I waited for an answer, but he just kept walking. It's people like him who aggravate me. Mysterious and concieded people like him. I started to walk again, and heard sobs coming from some sort of Villa. And it sounded like a girl.
'I-I'm sorry Romana, I let h-him get away!' the girl started to cry.
An older woman's voice said, 'Don't worry Lumina, that silver haired thief won't get away with it!'
Silver haired thief? Are they talking about...nah! He didn't seem like at thief to me. And thieves usually wear all black and cover their face with a mask. But then again, when I looked at him there was a gold chain sticking out of his pocket! Wow, this is just too much for my first day.
'Eyes that look like the sea, his name is Skye. He must be an Earth loving thief,' I said to myself.
'Hehe, Maybe I am or maybe I'm not.'
I looked up an saw Skye leaning against the big building from earlier.
'S-Skye?,' I asked, making sure I wasn't going crazy.
He came closer. 'Surprised to see me?'
I snorted. 'No I just thought you would be gone by now.'
'I just wanted to say farewell. I bet we'll meet again, it's in the stars.'
I looked up, just to see if he was lying. 'Are you serious? Where, I don't see it?'
Skye sighed and walked away for the second time. 'Again, it's a good thing you're beautiful.'
'I'm just going to take that as a compliment!' I yelled at him.
Now that my exploring was ruined by a certain thief, I decided to go back to my house. I took a quick shower and got dressed into the most comfortable pajamas I had. My bed still smelled like my grandfather, which is a good and bad thing. Today was really crazy for me, so hopefully tomorrow will be calmer.
I just have to try my hardest...and be strong.
