Authors Note:
Thanks for the reviews!
And I was also thinking that Luke should be who Akari likes! (Thanks to MizaLuna.)
So, there will be a scene between them two after Hikari's POV!
Hikari's POV
I was at the town hall. I had realized that Gill didn't have a mansion but I was okay with it. Because they were still rich!
"Hikari! You're late." said Gill coming downstairs quickly. "It's 9:01."
"What difference does that make?" I questioned, I was only late by one minute.
Gill replied, "Well, you were suppose to come early today."
I was confused, "Why?"
"Father wants both of us to eat lunch together so he could have the whole town hall to himself!" Gill told me.
Was Hamilton that selfish? "Why?"
Gill just sighed, "Because he has really important mayor work on some days. So I have to go to the inn to eat breakfast and lunch all the time so he could have peace and quiet."
"Okay, so let's go?"
Gill nodded and went to the door and opened it for me. He was really a nice gentlemen! "Thanks." I said as I got out.
As we were walking, "Have you been to the inn before?" he asked.
I shook my head, "No, I've been to a few other places."
"Okay, well I'll show you it." responded Gill smiling.
I was slightly confused, why was Gill so nice all of a sudden? It's probably because he hates having breakfast at home or something?
When we arrived, Gill opened the door but this time he went in first. I guess only sometimes he acts a bit like a gentlemen.
I looked around in the inn, "It looks pretty good." I commented.
Gill grinned, "Let's go to that table, I usually go to that table." he pointed to a table that looked like the same as all the others.
I didn't really mind which table he chose, "Okay, that table it is then!"
As we sat down at the table, a girl with orange hair who I think is the waitress came up to us, "Hi Gill! Who's the girl with you?"
Gill turned red a bit, "Hikari." he said quietly.
I understood why he was embarrassed, it was a bit weird to sit with a girl who's not your girlfriend and you're going to eat lunch with her. To be honest, I was a bit as well.
"Oh nice name! The name's Maya." the waitress introduced herself. "What do you guys want?"
Well, I guess she wasn't being embarrassing after all. She's a pretty good waitress I guess.
"Can I please have a menu?" I questioned. I really didn't understand why she didn't give out the menu, in the city restaurants the waitresses would always give out menus, well usually they do. Is it different on Castanet Island? If so, why is everything so different?
Maya looked at me surprised but then she looked happy and jolly all over again, "A menu? Oh sure, usually everyone on Castanet Island know what we serve in this inn."
How could they remember the whole menu? I turned to face Gill, he nodded.
Maya just went back to the counter to get me a menu, after she did she instantly came back giving me the menu.
I just looked at the foods and didn't even bother looking at the price.

"These all look delicious, I would like to have a Cheese Fondue for main." I started.
Gill just sat there and ordered, "There's nothing I like here...I'll just have pizza with tomatoes."
I could tell that pizza wasn't his favorite because he was frowning and he was also deep in thought.
Maya just nodded and she wrote what we ordered down, "Thanks! Now, what drinks would you like?"
Maya was just incredibly bubbly and happy.

"Veggie juice Maya." I ordered.
Gill looked at me with a shocked face but then looked back to normal as he looked at Maya, "Tomato juice please."
Maya quickly wrote them down and walked away after, "Thankies, we'll get your drinks and dishes finished right away! Do not worry!"
"Hikari!" shrieked Gill, "Why did you order the most expensive dishes and drinks?"
I was surprised, "I did?"
"Yes, before I was going to pay for you." said Gill softly. "Now you have to pay it!"
"But I only have 8,275G, I need 100,000 to get my new house!" I replied, I was worried. "With a bathroom."
Gill just sighed, "Fine, I'll pay but next time you pay. You're the maid after all."
I smiled, "Thanks Gill." I was about to hug him but remembered he liked someone else.
After waiting, a guy with peach hair came up to us with our dishes and drinks, "Hey Gill, who are you with? Akari with a new haircut?"
I was furious, how could he call me Akari with a new haircut? I looked great, Akari doesn't look as great but still. He didn't have to offend me.
"No Chase." replied Gill nervously. "It's Akari's sister, Hikari."
Chase just smiled weirdly at us, "I see, well here are your foods that you ordered." and he walked away from us smiling cheekily.
"Oh no." Gill shook his head frowning. "His going to tell Luna!"
"He can't!" I shrieked. I didn't want Luna to think that Gill was cheating on her!
Gill looked worried, "Um do you mind if we take away this food and eat outside?"
I guess he thought Luna would come by any second OR he thought that Chase would tell Luna once he sees her.
I just nodded, "Let's go!"
I was also actually worried, I really didn't want Luna to find out! I mean what would she think?
"Oh Maya~!" I sang out.
Maya was at a girl with red hair's table but she looked up at us anyway, "Yes?"
"Can we please take away?" questioned Gill. "We would like to eat outside."
Maya was confused and nodded, "Sure but we need the money first!"
Gill and I both stood up with our dishes and Gill quickly got his wallet and counted the money so he could give it to Maya.
I opened the door for Gill since he was carrying most of the dishes and we both went outside.
"Where should we go?" I asked. It was sort of weird trying to hide in my opinion but I'm just going to go along with it since it is Gill's idea after all.
"Akari's farm!" answered Gill. "Over there's safe with your sister."
Akari's POV
"Hey Akari!" I looked up and saw Luke waving at me at the entrance of my farm.
Every Thursday, Luke would come by and ask for spinach and lunch! He was my best friend after all.
I just smiled, "Hi Luke. What's up?"
"Nothing much." he answered. "I just want my spinach! Where is it?"
Oh and did I mention, he loved spinach a little too much?
"Just wait." I laughed. "I'm going to harvest them soon."
Luke just frowned at me, "Okay then Akari. I'll wait."
"I'm harvesting the carrots right now." I replied.
"Okay Akari." said Luke happily. "Once you've finished, will you harvest spinach for me?"
I giggled, "Why not?"
"AKARI!"
Luke looked at me and laughed, "It wasn't me."
I just giggled, "Of course not! You don't sound like a girl do you?"
Hikari was at the entrance of my farm with Gill standing beside her.
"Hi Hikari, hi Gill!" I greeted walking towards them. "Why are you two at my farm?"
"Chase probably is about to tell Luna if she comes by the inn for breakfast or brunch or lunch or dinner!" said Gill worriedly.
Luke laughed, "Gill! What are you talking about?"
Hikari was looking worried too, "Gill and I ate lunch together at the inn with people seeing us!" she shrieked.
"So will they tell Luna?" I asked.
Gill shrugged, "Don't know but they can't see us now, we're at your farm!"
Luke was confused, "Why? It's just a girl."
Hikari pointed at Luke, "You have a point."
Luke smiled proudly, "Thanks."
"Just a girl?" Gill questioned. "It's Luna! You don't know how angry she could get."
"Oh yeah..." mumbled Hikari. "You know more about her than anyone else here."
"Didn't think about that." responded Luke.
"Let's just eat lunch together." I said changing the subject and went to the spinaches that I planted for Luke.
"Yeah!" said Luke in joy. "I'll cook the spinaches."
I personally thought that was a bad idea, Luke was a really bad cook, not as worse Maya who couldn't even cook properly.
Hikari agreed, "Okay! But we still haven't eaten our breakfast."
Luke laughed at Hikari, "It's 11:35!"
"11:35!" shouted Gill worriedly putting his hands on his cheeks, "I have to go back to the town hall to finish my work! I have like a million sheets."
"Maybe you don't have to join us." I said looking at Gill.
Gill just sighed, I'll eat my breakfast on my way back."
Hikari waved,"Bye Gill!"
"And Hikari, you have a important job." ordered Gill. "Come with me."
Hikari just sighed, "Fine. I don't understand how important the jobs I do, for you."
Gill walked out of the farm with Hikari following behind holding the breakfast and looking miserable at the same time.
"I'm so glad I'm not Gill's maid." Luke said suddenly.
I agreed, "I know."
I had a full field full of spinaches for Luke, it always took me ages to harvest them but I'd always manage with Luke's help of course.
"Need help?" suggested Luke. "I mean I will cook after all."
I giggled, "Luke! I'm cooking!"
Luke just frowned but then laughed, "Fine you can cook. I'm a terrible cook!"
To be honest, I actually felt bad, "No you're not! I'll teach you!"
Luke's face brightened up, "Really?"
I nodded brightly, "Yup!"
Although, teaching Luke how to cook might be harder than I think it is. I mean he was terrible at cooking but I guess he could cook a bit but only a little bit. Other than that, he probably was as terrible as Maya at cooking! What should I do?
Authors Note:
I finally finished! (It was really hard to think of something interesting to put.)
Anyway, if you liked this story so far, please review! I would really appreciate it!
