/ Chaotic /

"He must have a really successful farm given his…" Annie blushed remembering Fritz's body physique but quickly shook it off. She should reciprocate the favor of Fritz's respect, and that really should start off from her mind.

Annie made her way towards Greenhill farm, and what she saw was quite a big difference from what she's expecting.

Many randomly-tilled squares with some having seeds in them, and some having no seeds at all. A somehow standing house, with some rag-tag parts into it. The barn was in somehow good condition, but if you took a little turn to his neighbor's farm…

Yeah, Fritz was a klutz, definitely.

Annie went in his fields and saw Fritz sitting in the bench staring in the floor, obviously troubled and flustered. She quickly made her way to the farmer.

"Um, Fritz are you okay?"

The farmer was muttering money, house chores, …recipes? Annie quickly saw the problem with Fritz and sighed lightly.

Fritz wasn't really the best at organizing which problem should come first, and ends up overthinking about it therefore doing less than what should be done in a day.

In a farm this size, Fritz should have already been done by 8 or 9 AM. It was already 10AM, Annie saw that only a fraction of his crops has been watered. The maple-haired boy must've woken up late, or was stuck at this state for quite a while.

After hearing some of his muttering, Annie tugged the farmer gently bringing him back to his senses.

"From your muttering, this is the plan. Water all your crops first, then you said your remaining money is 1500G. You could live off by sacrificing two of your turnip fields for your food, and still earn a profit by the next time the traders come to our town."

"Afterwards you can get more money to buy seeds and then start earning more money! Then fixing your house and your barn could come later. Now isn't that a bit more relaxing to hear Fritz?" Annie patted Fritz like he was a younger sibling for hers. The farmer though was shocked and hugged the girl suddenly sending her blushing as red as a tomato.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank youuuu Annie! You made all of it organized, how can I thank you?" Annie still flustered and blushing, composed herself and started thinking.

"How about a strawberry cheesecake from Raeger's restaurant?" Fritz suddenly died off though and was dejected after hearing that.

"I-I'm sorry! I was joking!" But then Fritz lit up and quickly bounced back.

"I-I promise you I'll pay Raeger to cook you the best strawberry cheesecake he could do! B-but… I'm sorry Annie… I can't give it to you right now… since I'm-, "Annie shushed the farmer to make sure he doesn't get dejected again.

"Promising me is more than enough Fritz." The girl gave a warm smile, and the boy gave out a grin while scratching the back of his head.

"Hey Fritz, if you need help in farming, don't be a stranger and go to me okay? I-I-mean I'm starting too, but I know some extra knowledge that can help you so…"

"Okay Annie! In return, I'll be with you for the rest of my life!" Annie was suddenly shocked.

"WHAT?! U-u-um, I'm sorry Fritz, I'm not ready for marrying and- um, oh dear, I'm, uh…." Annie was getting flustered and Fritz was having his brain going on errors after realizing what he just said.

"UM, UH, NO! NO! I mean, I'll be helping you for the rest of my life as repayment, Um, AHAHAHA! Um, yeah, hehe! I'm sorry Annie!"

They then both looked at each other, saw how flustered they were with that misunderstanding. They both laughed at the predicament.

The breeze from Fritz's farm blew harder, as Annie left the farm, and Fritz waving goodbye to her with both smiles evident from their faces.
