Loves Me, Loves Me Not
Part 3- Feeling the Trouble

The sun peaked out from behind Death Mountain. It was extremely bright, and made
Link feel warm since it was cool the night before. Link woke up hear the screech of his
sweet best friend, Saria.
"Rise and shine, Link! Haven't seen you in the forest lately," Link squinted his eyes to
the morning sun. He moved his eyes around in order to see Saria. She giggled, and
pushed over some sheets to the window so he could see. Then, sat down beside him.
"Sleep well? You look like you haven't slept in days!" Link got up, shook his head, and
stretched. He looked at his very good friend who he had known for many years. They
both smiled at each other. Link was happy to see her again, for he hadn't seen her in a
few months.
"Saria! I'm glad to see you. What's new?" Link yawned. He was dreadfully tired. He had
had a fun night the day before with Malon.

"Oh, nothing. The same boring stuff, but I wanted to tell you about this party that the
Kokiri are going to have. It's for, well, we haven't had a party for anything in a very long
time. So I guess it's for having such a wonderful land like this. Anyways, if you want to
come, we would love it if you did," Saria spoke in a different way. She didn't sound like
herself. Link liked the idea, "What time is this party at?" Saria answered, "I think it's
going to be in two days at around midnight. If you have other plans, you don't have to- "
Saria was cut off by Link, "I'm coming, don't worry. I'll be there," Link got all his things
together to leave.

"Where are you going now, Link? Aren't you going to stay longer?" Saria forced him to
stay. "I can't. I have to pick up Epona at the Ranch! See you later," Link made his way
out his is small house. Saria followed after him, "Wait! I didn't tell you what we're going
to do at the party!!" But Link couldn't hear her. He was already at the entrance to Hyrule
field.
Link was huffing, and puffing all the way to LonLonRanch. He knew he was late at
getting Epona. Malon wouldn't be pleased to hear that he was at the castle for a while
talking with Zelda, and got to bed late. He had slept in for a bit. Link thought over again.
Maybe she wouldn't be upset. Hopefully she was in a good mood.

He got there, heavy breathing, and his blonde hair everywhere. His right hand on his
chest, and left hand on the wall of their farmhouse. Still breathing heavily, Link looked
around the entrance of the Ranch. No one was out, but he could hear someone in the
stable singing the tune that Link admired. He stood up straight, and headed to the stable.
He also heard some horse's kicking the sidewalls. He stood back a little.

Link was about to open the door, when Talon walked out. "Ah, Link! How ya doing my
boy? Come to see Malon again? If you are, she's in the stable with the horses. Why don't
you go in there," Talon was drying his hands with a green cloth he had just got from his
pocket. Link hesitated.
"Oh, thanks. I'm here to pick up Epona. I left her here for the night," Link slowly walked
inside the stable door, trying not to make a sound. He saw Malon there leaning against a
wooden gate beside Epona. She was humming her song quietly, not even noticing Link.
He crept up behind her, then put his hand on her shoulder. Suddenly, Malon sprung from
her feet, and turned around. She made screamed in shock.

"Link! You scared me, I didn't even see you there!" Malon put a quick smile on. She
wore the same top, and shawl, but a blue skirt. She had her hair up in a ponytail. Malon
waited for Link to say something, "Ha! You should've seen your face, Malon!" Malon
thought up a good come back, "Well Link, at least my face isn't always like that!" Link
opened his mouth in surprise, "Oh, that was low!" They both laughed at the remark. It
reminded them of last night.
"Anyways, are you here to pick up Epona? You left her here for quite a while," Malon
wasn't angry at Link. He was relieved that she wasn't upset.

"Link, are you going anywhere after? Cause if you aren't, I was just wondering if you'd
like to stay for lunch. We are having some soup…I don't now if you like soup, though,"
Malon wanted him to stay for a while longer. Link stood there for a few seconds, thinking
of what he had to do after.
"Uh, sure, why not," Link was in fact hungry. He hadn't eaten in a day. Too busy, not
enough time. Malon leaded to the front door of their house. Before they entered, Malon's
father walked out, "Malon, I have to go drop this milk to the potion shop in the Market. I
will be a while, so you stay in the Ranch," Malon's head dropped, "Great, now I have to
stay in the Ranch for half the day," Link comforted her, "Don't worry, Malon. It
shouldn't take that long,"

Malon looked back at Link, "But Link, you know my dad. He'll sleep, and sleep! I'll
never get out of here. I'm old enough, I'm not a little girl anymore!" Link opened the
house front door, "Come on. We'll figure it out later. Let's have lunch," Link grabbed
Malon's hand, walked inside, and went upstairs. They went in a room with a round table,
and three chairs around it. "You can sit in any chair you'd like," Malon pointed to the
chairs. Link sat in the one next to the smallest one. He offered to help, "Need any help?"
Malon looked behind her, "Oh, no. It's ok," She poured a glass of milk for Link.

"How is the princess Zelda doing? Have you seen her lately?" Malon was cutting up
some bread from a cabinet. "She's doing fine. She seems stressed out, though," Link said
as he took a gulp of the milk.
"Are you worried about her?" Malon set down pieces of bread on a plate.
"Are you trying to get somewhere?" Link slammed his hand on the table. His eyebrows
were crossed in. He didn't like it when Malon compared the two. Malon put the plate of
bread on the table, trying not to look at Link. "Sorry, this food isn't as good as the food
you would get at…" Malon paused. She knew Link would just get even angrier if she
would have said the last words.
Malon sat down to join Link. She took a piece of bread, and nibbled on it slowly. Malon
sighed, "I'm sorry…I…I have to go," Malon ran to the door, almost crying. She was
about to leave, when Link caught her arm.
"Malon, where are you going?" Malon didn't bother to listen. She still headed to the
door, not even noticing that Link still held her arm.
"Malon," Link tried to hold on tighter, but Malon already broke loose. She ran down, and
went outside leaving Link alone. She felt stupid inside as she walked to very back of the
Ranch.
