Just moving the story along now, ya know. I do not own Harvest Moon!
I slammed the door behind me as I walked outside. "Well, here we go, another new day~" I hummed to myself as I began walking down to Mirabelle's store. As I walked I began to get more excited, who was this man? Why had I never seen him before? Did he live on the island? The more and more I asked myself these questions the faster I began to walk, and before I knew it I was running down the path. "Liz where are you going in such a hurry!?" I heard Taro yell; I just waved and ran by. I ran into Mirabelle's shop and went right up to the front desk. "Why, hello there Liz. Is something wrong?" Mirabelle asked, probably wondering why I was running like I was on fire. "Uh…." I stuttered after I thought about what I was doing. Wasn't it kind of creepy to randomly walk into a store and asking like a hundred questions about some random person? "All deliveries, cows, chicken, sheep, are all safe and here." I heard an unfamiliar voice speak. I turned around and there he was. His silver hair, his purple eyes, his cowboy outfit, and his stale-looking face. I gulped. I was just about to make a huge fool out of myself! I didn't know anyone would be here this early, especially not him! "Thank you, Vaughn. Now, what was it you wanted, Liz?" Mirabelle said, she just gave me his name, yes! "Oh err, nothing, hahaha." I saw Vaughn heading for the door, so I decided to follow him. "Hey uh, you, Vaughn!" I said as he began walking down the path. He turned around with a look on his face like 'what is it this time?'. "What is it?" is all he said. "I just wanted to welcome you to our island~!" I said with a smile on my face, maybe I could break through his non-friendly barrier. "….Oh. Well thanks, I guess." He then turned and began to walk away. "…Vaughn, wait!" I said and ran after him. He continued walking but turned his head "What?" I could tell he was probably getting annoyed. "Are you staying here, on the island?" I asked, trying not to sound like a stalker. "No." is all he said. He waited there as if not wanting to have to walk and be stopped again. "Well ok then. I'm glad I got to meet you; maybe we could be…… Friends?" I asked with a hint of hope in my voice. He kind of looked surprised. I just smiled. Just then I heard Mirabelle come out of the store "Vaughn, you had better get going, you know you don't want to be late to Forget-Me-Not Valley!" She smiled a warm smile, while I thought I was going to yell an objection but I kept quiet. "Right," Vaughn looked at me one last time, I wonder what he thought of me? "I have to go." Is all he said and then he walked off. "Goodbye, Vaughn!" I yelled. As soon as he was out of sight I ran up to Mirabelle. "Who is that?" I asked, sort of a dumb question though. "Oh that young man is Vaughn Vaults. He ships animals here." I nodded "So, when will he come back?" I was kind of nervous asking, it sounded weird asking all these questions. "He'll be back next Wednesday if not sooner. He sometimes leaves my shop early to go down to the beach, sometimes the forest." I smiled, happy to have this information. I'll just have to check around every day to see if he's here! That'll be easy. "Thank you, Mirabelle~!" I ran off up to my ranch, and went into the barn to feed Sheena. Sheena just let out a long moo. I giggled "Sheena you're so cute!" As I was leaving the barn I was beginning to think about Vaughn again. Why couldn't I get him off my mind? It's not like he's the friendliest person on the island but that's what made him different. Special.
I had taken care of the crops and made sure Sheena was ok before heading inside to get ready for bed. I wrote down today's events in my diary. I felt hope in me that Vaughn might be back tomorrow. What was this strange feeling? I sighed, and went to sleep.
