Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN HARVEST MOON!!!!!

All I ever wanted was a great family with parents who would love me and stay with me forever. Everyday, my mom and dad would say, 'We'll always be with you no matter what', but that was a lie. When I was ten, my mom was tested positive for cancer. I would always visit her with my dad and she would get so happy.

It was hard looking at her. She would look so pale, her hands so cold and was always coughing. One day, she looked immensely sick. She had a lot of bags under her eyes and her lips turned purple. All she said to me was, "Christina, listen to me dear. I am running out of time and I want you to have this. I love you." She slowly unclipped her locket and gave it to me. I wanted to respond, but this certain noise stopped me. Beeeeeeeeeeeep. She was gone. I had lost her.

I was left with my dad, who had to raise me. He was completely devastated, but we had fun together. That was until he was also positive with cancer. I was also checked, but came out negative. With that, everything that happened to my mom was happening to him. The last time I saw and heard him was when he told me to pack up and call some relatives to stay with. He said his time was up and he didn't trust the city. I knew what he meant and did as he said. As tears ran down my face I whispered, "I love you" and left.

As tears streamed down my face, I called all my family members. I asked to stay with them, but no one would take me. All one homeless I cried. No one was there for me. I was alone. Then came my dad's best friend Takakura and raised me. He was like my second father. Soon, days pasted and we found dad's will. He had left me a farm in Forget-Me-Not-Valley that he had bought. We were supposed to live there, but mom got cancer. Takakura jumped up and down with a smile on his face. It was always his dream to run a farm so we packed and left. Now here I am running a 'so what' successful farm.

Christina's POV

I woke up to the shining sun and chirping birds. I loved the sun. It brought me happiness and was the only thing besides my alarm clock to wake me up. I lazily got out my bed with a groan and headed to the bathroom. After getting dressed and brushing my teeth I felt refreshed. This week was a special week and nothing can ruin it. Why? Because it is my birthday tomorrow and I was finally turning 20. Since I was done, I decided to do my chores.

Outside I saw Takakura. He smiled and come over to me. "Hello Christina. I hope you slept well." He was always happy. I wish I were like that. "I slept well thanks for asking. So what's new?"

He stood there in thought and smiled again. "Oh, almost forgot" He pulled out a white envelope and handed it to me. "It is from Lumina she said to open it A.S.A.P." With that he left and I shouted thanks. I opened the envelope and read it.

Dear Christina, Spring 19th

Since it is your birthday tomorrow I decided we should meet up at the bar. It would help us plan something special for you. Please come at around 5 p.m.

Your best friend,

Lumina

I smiled at myself. Lumina was one of the first friends I made here. The others are Muffy, Celia, Flora, and Nami. We would all hang out and gossip about stuff. I laughed a little as I remembered how I met them.

Flashback Starts

It was a boring day so I decided to go to the bar. There were 4 girls who looked at me. One was twirling her blond hair, another was fixing her bandana. There was also a red head girl and a elegantly dressed girl. "Who the hell are you?" one of the girls with red hair said.

"Oh, I'm Christina and I own the ranch." They eyed me and then told me to go over there. They introduced them selves and smiled.

I felt sweat drops fall down my face. I was really nervous, but talked. "O-oh I h-hope we can b-be come f-friends." Well I kind of stuttered, but they understood. Muffy turned to me. "Well...I don't think that could happen. To be friends with us you have to take a test."

Ok now I was shaking and sweating. I managed to let out a smile. "W-what kind of t-test." Nami stared at me. "We all have to beat you and if you survive, we can be friends." All of the girls started giggling like little 5-year olds. "What! You guys are fucking crazy!" I ran for the door, but Muffy blocked it. They all came at me with big grins on their faces. Now they were laughing evilly and I started to scream. I thought I was going to wet my pants.

"Ok let's stop before she gets a heart attack". I don't know who that was because my eyes were closed shut. Shaking, I opened one eye and Lumina came up to me. "We're just kidding. We would love to be friends with you. C'mon lets talk" I got up and started talking to them.

Flashback Ends

Still laughing I picked up my tools and went off to work. This was going to be a fun day!
