The boat had landed, standing by the pier was Mayor Hamilton, a passionate and cheery man that loved newcomers. When Hikari got off the boat to greet the mayor, she stared at the excited man and felt weirded out.

As they walked together in harmony, Mayor Hamilton discussed her neighbor, Kasey, the hero that fixed this town. He told her, what was gone before he came was now available again. He also mentioned about Kasey's wife named Candace, but she was currently out of town to learn more about designing different types of clothing.

Once they finally reached her place, to Hikari's imagination, it was far from what she was expecting. The house appeared beaten both on the outside and the inside, it looked so dusty and dull. The crop field had many weeds laid out on the ground. To Hikari's surprise, it would take a while for her to clean it all up. The barn resembled the same situation as her own house. Hikari sighed and thought to herself. I guess this house would do. I mean, as long I can renovate it, it'll look even better than before!

While Hikari was in deep thinking, Mayor Hamilton looked at Hikari with a huge smile and said, "What do you think about this property? It has a lot of charm, don't you think?"

Hikari pulled herself from her thoughts and stared at Mayor Hamilton with a grin and replied, "How much does it cost?"

She prayed that it was enough to pay off the entire house. Otherwise, if she borrowed from Akari, then Akari would charge her interests.

Mayor Hamilton responded with a joyful attitude, "It cost 10,000G!."

Hikari was shocked, but she understands why it would cost so little. She went through her wallet and took out 10,000G right on the spot.

The mayor was very surprised and felt nervous, "You don't have to deposit right away, we do down payments with no interest and fees."

Before Hikari could even talk, a young man out of nowhere ran and appeared before their eyes, Hikari was taken back by the man's approach, but once she saw the man's appearance, she was astonished. He had Baby Blue Eyes, with lighted Blonde hair, wore a white silvered suit with a dark blue-collar shirt, and his purple tie was tucked inside the vest. Hikari couldn't stop admiring him, but that admire shattered when the attitude came out of the young man's mouth.

"Wait, Father, you can't say there's no interest and fees, that's not how it works!" he shouted at the mayor.

Hikari was surprised and shocked that the young man is the son of the mayor. Hikari quickly went behind the tree next to her home and was frightened by the man's attitude. She watched them arguing back and forth.

Mayor Hamilton looked frustrated and annoyed at the same time, "Gill, how many times have I told you not to shout at me when I'm with a guest?" he snapped.

The young man named Gill replied with a conceited attitude, "Your about to ruin business profits if you keep giving people no interest and fees," he argued.

Hamilton sighed and crossed his arms. He looked at Gill with a displeased face. Hikari interrupted them, "Um, I can always pay the interest and fees."

Gill had forgotten the newcomer was still here. He turned to look at Hikari, "Ahem... I'm sorry about what happened there, and the name is Gill. This house originally cost 25,000G with interest and fees applied. Would it be Cash or credit?"

Hikari stared at him with a soft face and said, "Cash."

Hikari was about to hand over 25,000G to Gill until Kasey came over to see what was going on. As he approached them, he forcefully pushed Gill's hands away from Hikari's.

"Gill. I'll pay for whatever she owes you." He protested.

Gill turned to look at Kasey with a shocked face, but Mayor Hamilton happily said, "Oh Kasey! how are you?"

The mayor then turned to Hikari, "You don't have to pay for anything, Kasey got it covered for you."

Hikari was slightly confused about the situation that just happened. Gill was disappointed at Kasey for paying Hikari's property.

"Why did you pay for her, Kasey?" asked Gill. "Don't tell me you are going to pay for every single person that moves here."

Kasey replied, "Not just for everyone, but come on Gill, you probably overpriced it for a beaten house like this," Gill didn't say anything afterward.

Mayor Hamilton clapped his hands, and in a peaceful matter, he looked at Hikari.

"It's settled," he said, "Hikari, why don't you explore this town? Come back to me when you meet everyone. I got a welcoming gift for you."

As Mayor Hamilton was about to leave, he dragged Gill away back to their place.

Kasey turned to face Hikari and said," You must be Hikari the Mayor spoke of yesterday," he laughed, "let me introduce myself, I'm Kasey, and I hope you come to enjoy and love this town as much as I do.

Hikari looked at Kasey with a worried expression, she said," Um, about the money…"

Kasey was stunned and said," I need to drop off bills at the Mayor's Office," He patted Hikari's head," Don't worry about paying me back, catch you later!"

Kasey disappeared, and as always, Hikari wasn't great at interacting with others. She wasn't able to tell them how she feels, but with time she would be able to improve.

Silently, she went inside to her new place and started to unpack her luggage and cleaned the house a bit, before she was able to walk out to introduce herself to others.
