My Sweet Gal

"Chris, I keep telling you, you have to find a wife soon! You're going to be in trouble if you don't!"Takakura moaned. (I'm gonna call him "T" kay? )

"Don't rush these things!" Chris yelled. "I'll find a bride when I'm ready…" He took a sip of his water.

"Oh…" T said with a great suspicion. "I know your problem… none of the girls like you… I'm right aren't I?"

Chris spit out his water as fast as he heard those words. "Now why would you get an idea like that? 'Course the girls like me! I'm macho! I'm intellectual! Uh-huh! Uh-huh! I- haven't met anyone yet- is all."

"Whatever…" T rose up. "By the way you're cleaning that mess up." He pointed at the water Chris had spit out.

"Why? It's just water, it'll eventually dry up!" Chris laughed.

"Actually it's not water, if you catch my drift…"

"UGH!" Chris ran out of the room screaming like a little girl.

"That never gets old…" T laughed.

Chris ran out screaming and screaming. He ran faster and faster until he got to the springs where a girl much younger than Chris sat at the edge of the pond. Chris was too freaked out to relize that the girl was there, and instead bumped into her. It wasn't until then that Chris relized that he was a complete boob.

"Ouch!" The girl cried. "Oh I'm sorry… I was sitting at the pond… you didn't see me… are you okay?"

"I'm fine…" Chris angrily groaned as he brushed himself off. He didn't even relize he was talking to a girl. "Hey what the heck do you think-" He looked up. He saw the girl's sad and sorrowful eyes. "Oh- I'm sorry! I kinda had an episode…"

The girl giggled. "Well you're okay now, right?" She helped Chris off the ground.

"Yeah I'm fine!" Chris blushed with embarrassment.

"By the way, I'm Lumina! And you are-"

"Chris!"

"Chris… Chris…" She tapped her chin. "Now where have I heard that name… Oh yeah! You're the new guy right? With the farm?"

"Yeah…"

"GREAT!" Lumina jumped with such excitement, it scared Chris. "I love the animals and the doggies and the stuff! Could I come over later? Please!"

"Sure…" Chris shrugged.

"If you want to visit me, I live in the villa with Grandma Romana!" Lumina pointed. She then broke into a whisper. "Psst. Grandma Romana doesn't liked to be called Grandma…"

"O-kay…" Chris scratched his head.

Chris returned home a few minutes later. He sighed a sigh of relief he'd finally have a moment to himself-

"CHRIS!" T screamed with fury. "I have to introduce you to everyone. And there are some potential wives in Forget-me-not valley! "

"Takakura!" Chris yelled. "--, Just introduce me okay? I already know Lumina."

"Yes, yes, but there is plenty more to meet, my boy. Come with me, if you will!"

He introduced Jack to everyone. It didn't really "peak" Chris's interested, but he tried to seem like he was interested. Soon, he would be.

"And this is Vesta! And here brother Merlin." T spoke.

"Hello, sir!" Vesta laughed.

"Yo." Merlin coolly spoke.

"Okay, guess I'm done with everyone, I'll just head home, kay Taka-"

"Wait!" Vesta reached out. "You can't leave just yet, you have to meet my niece, Celia!"

Chris pouted. "Kay." Just one more person. Just one more. I can handle this. Oh, but I really need to clip my toenails!

"She should be on the farm somewhere…" Vesta tapped her chin. " Celia! Celia! CELIA!"

Finally a response shot back.

"Coming Vesta!" A female's voice cried. The girl's step grew louder and louder as she opened the door. "Is something… wrong?" The girl stared at Chris as if he had something on him.

"I want you to meet Chris. He's from the city!"

"The city…" Celia tapped her finger. "But isn't that were a lot of people smoke? And Uncle Merlin got sick from there…"

"No! No!" Chris sweated. "I didn't like it there either, all my friends smoked! Ewww…"

"Well that's a relief." Celia giggled.

"Chris, I just want you to know that my niece is indeed, single!" Vesta whispered.

"Vesta! Please!" Celia blushed. "I'm Celia! Nice to meet you! Would you like to hang out sometime? May be around the bar or something?"

"Sure!" Chris jumped for his chance. "I'm free anytime!"

"Hey!" Merlin shouted. "Don't hit on my niece you disguisting pervert!"

"Merlin, please!" Celia whined. "I'm sorry. He didn't mean that. I'm free all the time too! That is, if Merlin and Vesta can take my shifts."

"Sure!" Vesta laughed.

"I guess…" Merlin whined.

"Great!" Chris chuckled. "So… would you wanna hang out today? Around… oh say 3:00?"

"Sure!" Celia laughed.

"Then it's a date!" Chris pointed out.

"What?" Celia scratched her head.

"I mean a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a- ummmmmmm…… hanging-out date… thing…y… ya know…" Chris sweated. Oh crap, I screwed up big time! She's gonna hate me!

Celia giggled. "You're so funny!"

Chris laughed nervously. "Yeah..."

Later at 3:00...

Chris and Celia were at the bar. They were both laughing and giggling.

"So what was it like in the city?" Celia asked.

"Not too great..." Chris sweated. "I had tons of friends... but it was way too harsh. But I wish my friends would move down here..."

"Well, maybe we could visit them!" Celia inquired. "We could go up there!"

"Yeah... maybe we could... aw, it'd be great to see all my friends again..." Chris dreamed.

"So when would you wanna go?" Celia asked.

"Well; we have to wait until summer." Chris sighed.

"Why summer?"

"Because, all my friends go out to play football everyday of summer..."

"So?"

"I wanna play a game!"

Celia giggled. "This has been great, Chris! We should hang out more often!"

"Yeah..." Chris sighed.

"Is something wrong?"

"Nope! I'm just a little tired."

"Me too. C'mon, let's go home..."

Celia walked with Chris to his farm.

"Well, here we are; what a lovely farm!"

"Thanks!"

So they said their goodbyes and left.
