"Well, I believe since I'm new around here that I need a proper tour around town." Claire stated, trying to prove a point, "and since all you're doing is sitting around here, you should lead the tour."

"Um…" Cliff couldn't really talk; he was still recovering from the hug she had given him. She thought it was a good idea at the time, but now she knew it was a bad idea. She barely even knew him, and she did that.

"I'm such an idiot." She muttered to herself as she sighed loudly. "Never mind," she turned to face him, "I'm just going to go now; it really was nice meeting you."

Claire got up from her spot next to Cliff, and stood in front of him. "I'll talk to ya later." She didn't seem too happy, but she didn't want to scare him anymore, so she bowed her head and started off towards the door. She'll just go on the rest of the tour by herself. It wasn't so bad, she barely could get lost around the city; she could manage a small village.

After traveling around the small town, she realized just how friendly everyone could be. The store was closed today, so she couldn't buy any seeds to start her farm, but she did visit the clinic to see a nice nurse, her name was Elli, and a hott doctor who was called doctor by everyone. "I wonder if he even has a name…" she faintly wondered when she found that out.

Then she saw a nice library being runned by a girl named Mary, she was really shy, and she gave Claire a library card so Claire could borrow books whenever she wants.

It was around two o'clock when Claire returned to the farm; she didn't see all the places, but she'll visit the rest the next day when she goes to town to buy some seeds. "I have all the right tools, but nothing to show for them." Claire sighed when she sat down on her bed. She felt exhausted after all that walking.

"Maybe I should go work a little more on my farm, so I can get things ready for tomorrow." Claire pondered around for a few minutes and decided it was the best idea, and she still had some strength left.

The time was unknown to her; all she knew was it was way passed dark. She could barely see the weeds in front of her as she sliced them away. It was probably around nine o'clock, but she wanted to get a bunch done by the next day, so she could have a good amount done before she started to plant the seeds. Speed howled in the background, or what she thought was her dog, but she didn't have the faintest clue. "Maybe I should stop for now…" the howl sort of scared her because she didn't really know if there were stray dogs around.

Another howl sounded close by. "Yup time to go to bed." Claire yelped as she ran towards her door. She didn't have a fear of dogs, but she did have a fear of getting hurt, and she didn't want to be in pain on the first week she was in Mineral Town.

"I woke up late…" Claire grumbled to Speed when she looked at the clock; it was eight in the morning. "Farmers are supposed to wake up early."

Speed whined a bit and rubbed against her leg; Claire sighed and reached out towards him and picked him up. "Oh well, I'll just start my day a little late, I had a lot done last night, so I think I'm okay." She smiled and nuzzled her cute puppy and placed him gently on the ground.

"Its time to start a new day!" Claire cheered and ran out the door and towards the town. She remembered that the store opened at nine, so she had an hour to look around and get to the store; she didn't quite finish her tour yesterday.

On Claire's small journey to the store she ran into a winery; she wasn't quite old enough to buy wine, but the people there were super kindly. Duke and Manna were the owners, she even promised to help them out when they needed to harvest their grapes in fall. It sounded like a fun idea to her, and she wanted to make a bunch of friends in this new town.

Also on her small journey she found the mayor's house and some other houses with other residents in the town. "Everyone in this town is just radiating with kindness…" with that said she walked into the store that had just opened before she got there.

It was a small store with two rows of different items on the left and right side; there was also ton of seeds in the middle, labeled: Spring.

"Welcome!"

Claire almost jumped when she heard the voice, but she stopped herself and looked at the cash register where a man stood smiling happily. He had slick black hair and a small black mustache. He looked like a nice person, and his smile seemed kind enough.

"Welcome to my store." He said again in a shyer voice, losing his confidence really fast. "Are you new around here?"

"Oh!" Claire brightened up and walked towards him, passing all the seeds she was about to ask for. "I'm Claire; I run the new farm out in the countryside. I came here to buy some seeds so I can start working." She had a bit of pride at that moment, she finally actually owned something, even if it was a small farm that's all run down and horrible looking.

"I'm Jeff," he smiled once again, "as you can see all my seeds are in the middle of the store, I have some pretty good prices on them so you can definitely make a good profit." He pointed towards all the seeds, "they're categorized by color. I'll tell you the price when you find one you like."

"Thanks." Claire nodded as she looked at the different colored bags of seed. She wanted to start out easily, so she might just choose the cheapest one. "How much are the Turnips?" She picked up a small white looking bag to show him.

"They're the cheapest and easiest to start out with. They're 120G per bag; each bag can fill nine units of your farm." He explained as he started to get the cashier ready for the check out. Claire seemed to decide quickly on choosing the turnips since she needed a good start out plant.

She easily took out 120G and gave him it kindly, "Thank you." Jeff smiled brightly when the money was in his hands. Claire just nodded and started out with door; before she could leave someone walked in. It was a girl with brownish blonde hair with a highlight in it. She looked kind of mean, but at the same time nice. It was hard to tell.

"Oh." The girl exclaimed when she almost ran into Claire, "sorry." She smiled and walked in, dodging Claire.

"Oh Karen, I'd like you to meet the new farmer in Mineral Town." Jeff exclaimed; the girl named Karen first looked at Jeff, then her gaze turned towards Claire.

"Nice to meet you I guess…" Karen stared in an uneasy tone; people in this town weren't really used to new people showing up. "I thought that other guy John was going to run the farm."

"John?" Claire questioned the name not familiar to her. "I'm Claire; I bought the farm a few days ago…" Confusion was easily read in her voice. Whoever this John was, he was supposed to have the farm, not her.

"Oh, well okay," Karen shrugged, the topic not too interesting to her. "That's just what I heard, but I can hear wrong."

"Well I hope so," Claire smiled in an uneasy way, "I spent most of my money on that farm, I don't want some guy named John taking it away."

"If he hasn't showed up now, he probably won't." Karen guessed, and Claire nodded to it; she had to get back to her farm to plant those seeds before dark.
