Disclaimer: I don't own Harvest Moon
3rd Day of Summer
I didn't feel like getting out of bed today... But I did it anyways. Hatori came into the room then as soon as I got myself up and dressed and he gave me another fossil.
"Can I really have it?" I asked and he nodded.
"Uh-hu," he replied, "I got it for you!"
"Thanks," I replied and put it into my pocket, "I have to get out of here now... so..."
"Oh,
right!" he said and left the room. I locked the door on my way out and
headed downstairs, he was in the lobby of the hotel talking to Ruby and
Tim. I walked straight past him into the outdoors. Sometimes I think he
tried too hard!
I lost to Patrick again today. I had tried to go and beat them at their own game, but I lost again. I can't believe I've stayed here a year and a season already... I was planning on leaving so much sooner. I stopped by the pond, Cody was there, walking around, planning out his artwork like usual.
"Hi," I said.
"Hi," he responded, "You know, today my head is filled with lots of new ideas for my work..."
"I know that," I replied, "You say that everyday... when are you going to get these ideas onto canvas?"
"That's a good question," he said with a sigh, "But I will, it will be a masterpiece!"
"Sounds like a plan," I replied and he walked away. He was a weird one, I mean I knew he was an artist I had seen the inside of his house once, it was full of blank and partially full canvases and lots of paint, but there wasn't a finished piece in sight. In a way it made me kind of depressed, to not have anything finished. I felt sorry for him a little, just a little. But then again once he did get his masterpiece finished, I bet it would be beautiful and I wondered if I'd even be around for it, be around to see it when it was finished.
"Hey Griffen, let me have a moo moo milk," I said and Griffen nodded. I didn't feel like heavy drinking tonight but moo moo milk sounded like it would do me good.
"Did you have a good day?" Muffy asked me.
"No," I said, "I lost horribly to Patrick and I didn't want to leave the bed this morning..."
"You weren't tired, were you?" she asked as Griffen set down my drink.
"No, I just had one of those times when I didn't want to leave bed," I said and downed my drink quickly.
"Want another?" Griffen asked and I shook my head.
"No, I'm just really tired," I said, "I don't like the heat. Goodnight." I paid for my drink and left. I was really tired out, yawning and everything and I normally didn't yawn. Hatori was probably a warlock or something, trying to bewitch me into liking him, yeah that was it.
My covers felt so nice and cool tonight as I snuggled underneath them. I think the drink helped me relax a little, and I was planning on sleeping in tomorrow. The more sleep I got, maybe the less tired and annoyed I'd be when Hatori tries to find me tomorrow. Ah, why can't I get him out of my head?

A/N: You know the deal, read and review, but please don't flame! I know, it's short again.
And hey, if you want another one of my Harvest Moon stories, check out Sigh of the Wind, a one-shot I wrote one time.
Oh yeah, I might have a little more theatre at the end of the next chapter! (You know, like the episode I had with Daryl and such a while back?) Anyways, tell me what you think!
