Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town
An inspiring story of a farmer's life
Chapter 1
"My New Life Starts On This Farm"
"Life is boring..." "I can't stand out this city life anymore!", groaned Claire as she walked out of her room and sit on her dining table. She get the newspaper and scan it's pages. The newspaper is full of city news. As she continue to scan the pages, something caught her attention. "Well, this is odd.", she said. "A great farm in Mineral town", stated in an article at the bottom page of the newspaper. "Well this is quite interesting! Shall I buy it? Hmmm. Since I am so bored of this life in the city, I should try living a new life in a farm. Yes! I'll buy it!" She immediately run to the telephone, dialed the number stated in the article and confirmed to the dealer that she'll own the farm.
The night before she leaves her city, she packed all her things and checked if all her things she need is ready. "There! All clear. I'm ready to sleep. I should wake up early in the morning tomorrow..."
"Time runs so fast.", she thought to herself while riding a boat to Mineral Town. "Last time a was just continuing my paper works in the office but now, I am here, going to a very tremendous farm." "I am so excited to meet all the townfolks there! I hope they will be nice people." Time really run so fast. A minute ago she was just thinking about the town but now, she is here, at Mineral Town.
It's weird though. She is the only one who came down from the boat. "What is this place? But it seems a peaceful place!", she said. "Why ofcourse yes! This is a very peaceful place!" I turned around and saw a little man wearing a red suit with a matching red hat. "Are you a tourist?", said the man. "No, I am not. I cam here to own the farm", she said. There was a minute of silence until the little man burst into laughter. "I am the Mayor of this town. My name is Thomas. Come, I'll take you to the farm.", he said. I came along with him and we walked not to far. As we enter the wooden gate of the farm, I was shocked to what I see. "So that is why you're laughing very hard that time, huh?", she shouted at the little man and again laughing so hard. "I'm sorry! But you see, you've been tricked! And this is not refundable!" said the man as he continue laughing. Claire is so mad that she get a hammer in her racksack and hit the mayor. "Don't you know how I quit my job and lose all oportunities to be wealthy? I transfer here because I want to live a very happy life in a farm filled with beautiful flowers and fruits! Don't you think of it? You're tricking people!" she said as she hits the mayor. "Please stop hitting me, I get it, I get it! Please, I'm sorry." said the man. "So you quit your job and went here huh? Don't worry, you can run the farm. The owner died so many years ago and no one never came to rebuild the farm. So, do you want it?. Claire accepted it with no choice. "Deal! I'll run this farm and rebuild it with all my have!", said Claire excitedly. "Oh, er, can you fill this up? It's an application form to be one of us in this town.", asked the mayor.

"There, done!" said Claire as she give the form to the Mayor. "Well, goodluck in running the farm! Oh and yeah, there's a small cottage there for you to live. It is quite small but it's very comfortable there" said the mayor. "Oh thanks, I'll clean it up latter!", she replied. Then the mayor left. Claire entered the house and to her suprise there was a little brown puppy running towards her! At first Claire was really scared but the puppy seems very cute and nice. Little did she know that the puppy is already licking her hand. "I think this puppy likes me. How about I take care of you little one?". "Arrrf arrrrf!" barked the puppy. "Well i think it's a yes. I should name you, uhmmm... Nomu! Good puppy, Nomu!" "Arrrrrf!"
It's getting late. Tomorrow will be a new life. A life full of exciting happenings. I wonder what good will happen tomorrow?
