As we made our way out the door, Tom looked both ways making sure no one was around to see us both leaving the Tailor shop.
Though we were wrong….
In a short distance someone was watching a hedgehog in a pink plaid apron and patched caprices and a light blue polo shirt come out with a tall raccoon with an expensive company suit leaving the Tailor Shop together. This very person was Ed the horse on a late night jog. He had much to tell to his best friend Goldie.
"How are we going to get there? The bus schedule doesn't start till 6:00 A.M. And the train doesn't even start till 8:00 A.M.!"
"We have an old friend that could take us…" He whispered as we held hands walking through the trees. With my memory we were heading toward the dock.
"But I thought Kapa'n was the bus driver…"
"And the cab driver…He does a lot of transportation, the only thing he actually owns is a small boat. The very thing will use."
"But…" What do we tell Kapa'n? I thought this out myself.
"Don't worry I'll have everything covered…" Tom stated squeezing my hand with reassurance.
We stood on the dock as Tom pressed the radio button to get a hold of Kapa'n.
"Yarr! Who thar?" Kapa'n's voice came over the speaker.
"This is Tom Nook. I need to use your boat to head into the city. It's very important!"
"This here Dock is closed fer business!"
"But you still have the boat correct? I'll give you 10,000 BELLS for transportation!"
My eyes widened 10,000 bells was a lot to use with Kapa'n.
"….Good bells…" the toad on the other side muttered.
The radio beeped as he signed off.
We looked around making sure no one was near the beach. We saw no one coming our way as we stood waiting for the old toad.
But we were wrong once again.
Someone had spotted the two standing at the dock holding hands waiting for Kapa'n on her way back home from a late night walk; it was Vesta, a sheep and another animal that was great with gossip…
"….Tom Nook AND good ole' Sable…." The kappa pouted.
"How is this important fer that city trip you asked me about?" He pointed at us.
"Here are your 10,000 bells…." Tom handed a bag of bells over to Kapa'n. The kappa looked at the bag then looked over at me and smiled.
"This is somethin' ter tells… Sable Able and Tom Nook are headin off to tha city together!"
"Tom! I'm telling you this was a big mistake. He is going to open his mouth to someone and the word will get out…" I hissed toward the tall business raccoon beside me.
"This is very confidential; we are asking you to keep your mouth shut." Tom Nook looked at Kapa'n.
"You two love clams, I can't just let some thin like these go unnoticed, aye?" The old sailor kappa chuckled.
Tom grabbed at Kapa'n's brown collar.
"Listen to me! I'll give you an extra 10,000 bell no more! Just keep your mouth shut about us leaving you hear me!"
"Tom let him go…" I whisper grabbing his arm away from the old kappa.
"I hear yah Nook, you're not the fella I used ta know…" Kapa'n rubbed his neck and took the 20,000 bells into his wallet.
"I hear that occasionally…" He grumbled and helped me into the wobbling boat. My freckled cheeks turned pink as I hear him say this. Everyone I know including me had told this either to his face or behind his back, he had changed. But I can feel the Tom I used to know coming back. I could feel it has he still kept holding my hand.
