Hikari stared at the leaking roof and crossed her arms.
Why did it have to rain today? On her day off. She walked over to her phone and dialed the carpentry number.
"Carpentry, this is Dale speaking. What can I do for you?"
"Hello, this is Hikari. Um, do you think that you could come out here and fix the holes in my roof? I'm not a big fan of having water find its home upon my floor." Dale chuckled. Hikari didn't think it was a laughing matter.
"Sure, I'll send someone out there right away."
"Thanks and bye." Hikari said hanging up the phone.
She grabbed some buckets and placed them all in the spots where the water was leaking in when she heard a knock at the door.
Hikari walked over and opened the door and there stood a rain soaked Luke with some tarp and a hammer.
"Luke! Are you really going to work in the rain?" Hikari asked worried.
"Of course." he said with a confused look on his face. "Why wouldn't I? Rain never hurt anybody."
"But you might slip and fall."
"Nahh, I'm a professional." He smiled and grabbed the ladder he set against the house and went around back to get to work. Hikari hurried herself back inside and found her umbrella and ran outside.
Hikari waited and watched for about an hour as Luke placed the tarp upon each of the holes and hammered them into place.
About the time he was finished it was dinner time. Around 18:00. He slid down the ladder and smiled at her.
"There that should hold it for a while till our new shipment of wood comes in.
Hikari smiled and thanked him.
"What about I treat you to lunch since you worked so hard?"
Luke looked at Hikari with his catlike eyes. "Are you sure?" Hikari nodded. "Hmm, Okay! I see no harm in it, lets go!" So he grabbed Hikari's hand and ran with her in the rain all the way to Harmonica Town.
When they sat down at the Ocarina Inn Luke shook his hair dry as if he was a dog. Hikari giggled and put her hands up to shield her face.
A few seconds Maya walked up to take their order. "What would you like?" She giggled and smiled.
"Um..." Hikari said, looking at the menu. "I think I'll have some Fried Rice and some Blackberry Juice."
"I want some Spinach and Mayonnaise." He said smiling without looking at the menu. Maya made a disgusted face and skipped off.
"You like spinach?" Hikari asked him.
"Oh yes! Its the best thing ever!"
"I love spinach too." Hikari said blushing.
"Awesome! Your officially cool now!" He said chuckling.
Once their food came the silently ate in peace.
"Here since you like spinach try this!" Luke lifted her chin up and placed his fork in front of her mouth. She blushed and opened her mouth. He smiled and placed the food into her mouth. She took it off and chewed.
At first Hikari thought it'd actually taste bad, but it didn't!
"Wow! This is delicious!" Hikari exclaimed.
"If you think that this is good, you should try the spinach cake my dad makes!"
"Spinach cake?" Hikari said with a bit of suspicion in her voice.
"People haven't even tried it and say its gross but its really really good! When I was little it was my birthday and my dad was making me a cake. Well I snuck some spinach in it when he wasn't looking, and well thats how it was born! It made my dad seriously sick to his stomach though. Haha." He busted out laughing.
His smiled once again made her smile as well.
When their food had been finished their time of departure came and they bid farewell to each other. Luke waved goodbye and went one way while Hikari smiled and went the other. But there was a little part of her that didn't want him to leave...
