Lillian kept reading the note over and over again, thinking about what happened earlier. She didn't exactly know what to do. He was her best friend, but that's all he was in her heart and in her mind. She couldn't stop thinking about the violinist that she met a couple days ago. It wasn't his looks, or his voice.. It was the way he acted. He was so polite; Lillian never met anyone quite like that.

She found herself lying in bed, clutching onto the letter tightly. Before she knew it, she saw that the sun was rising. There was no way, was she hallucinating or having a bad dream?" She sat up quickly and grabbed ahold of her clock. It read 5:45 AM.

"There's no WAY I stayed up this late!" She sat down her clock and ran towards the front door. She opened it quickly and noticed that she was not dreaming. The grass had an orange reflection upon it caused by the fall dew. She could hear the birds singing their morning song in the distance. She had no choice but to stay up the whole day. She walked out and started on her farm chores, harvesting the crops that were ready, and watering the ones that weren't quite there.

Before she could fully finish her chores, she heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Wow, up already? You look like you've gotten everything done for today!"

Lillian looked back and saw that Kana was walking towards her. She stood up and greeted him with a smile. "I could say the same about you."

"Hey hey, I just got up 30 minutes ago. So, did you get my note?"

"Yeah, I did. Look Kana, I'm sorry for hurting your feelings. I don't want our friendship to change because of that."

"It won't change, I promise. Besides, I may have approached you with it too quickly. It's my fault, I'm really sorry Lilly."

"Don't apologize. I was the one that shot you down." She went over to her water trestle and began to wash her hands. "So, what are your plans for today?"

"Oh, nothing. Just work, that's all. So did you happen to talk to Mikhail more?"

"Yeah, I did. Kana, he's really a sweet person. I think I made another good friend."

"Heh, well don't you go replacing me, alright?"

"I won't." Lillian looked past Kana and noticed that Mikhail was walking down the dirt path towards her house. "Hmm, it looks like you aren't the only one to visit me today!"

Kana looked back and sighed softly. "Well, I better get to work. You have a good day, okay Lillian?"

"I will. Thank you for visiting me, Kana." She watched him walk down the dirt path. Kana passed by Mikhail, who was shining a bright smile towards him.

"Good morning, Kana! Are you ready for the day?"

"Whatever." Kana scoffed and walked past Mikhail. The snow haired man shook it off, imagining that Kana might just be having a bad day. He walked up to Lillian, and noticed that she was already covered in dirt.

"Good morning, Mikhail! How are you today?"

"I'm doing fantastic, and you look like you've already finished your chores for today." He smiled and let out a small laugh while pointing to Lillian's clothes.

"Yeah, well I couldn't sleep last night so, I stayed up and got to work a little early today."

"I can see that. Hey, I just wanted to stop by and thank you so much for the boiled tofu you made me last night. It was the best I've ever had!"

Lillian blushed deeply and turned her head. No one has ever complimented her cooking before, let alone eat anything she's ever made. Come to think of it, she's never really cooked all that much before. She decided to take it with a grain of salt and enjoy the compliment.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it, Mikhail." She looked back up at him and shot him a bright smile.

"I didn't just come here to thank you, though. I was coming to tell you that the music festival has been changed to tomorrow, due to the cooking festival falling on the same day of the previous date."

"Oh, well thank you for telling me that! I would of felt terrible if I missed it."

"Well, I was wondering if you would like to hang out with me after the concert. Maybe go get some dinner?"

"Oh, I'd like that, a lot Mikhail." Her heart skipped a beat; she kind of felt a little guilt for accepting his offer and not accepting Kana's. But it wasn't going to be a date.. right?

"I'm glad. Well, I better be off. I bet you have some work to do, and I need to practice before tomorrow's festival. It's at Noon tomorrow, okay?"

"Alright, have fun practicing." She watched as Mikhail walked off.

'He wants to hang out. Alright! He's finally coming out of his shell. I better get all of my work done tomorrow so I won't miss the festival.' She made her way straight to Gombe's to purchase some more seeds. As she was passing Kana's, she noticed that he was out by his barn, talking to his most precious horse. Lillian became confused, remembering that Kana said he had to work today. It was already noon, so why wasn't he in his shop?

"It's none of my business." She said quietly as she walked into town, and straight to Gombe's. She made her way inside and saw that the elderly man was standing at the counter, a plethora of seeds were laid across the surface, just waiting to be bought.

"Ah, good afternoon, Lillian! What can I get for you, today?"

"I'm just looking for more seeds for my garden! What kind do you have today?"

"Well, today we have: Onion seeds, pumpkin seeds, watermelon seeds and pineapple seeds."

"Awesome! I'll take 4 of each! Oh, and some fertilizer if you have any."

"I have two, is that okay?"

"That's perfect. Thank you, Gombe!" Lillian watched as Gombe packed up her supplies in a small paper bag.

"That'll be 23,337g." Lillian handed him the money, and watched his face light up. "Thank you so much, Lillian! This helps me a lot!"

"Oh, no problem! I can always count on you for perfect seeds to grow perfect crops!" She grabbed her bag and began walking out of the shop. "Thanks again, Gombe!"

"Anytime, have a good day!"

Lillian headed back to her house. She passed by Kana's shop again, to see that he was still out there with his horses. She felt a bit irritated because he lied to her, but she figured there must have been a good reason behind it. As soon as she reached her farm, she began digging trenches and sowing her seeds. She placed the two fertilizers on both ends of the trenches, and gave her seeds a healthy amount of water.

"All of this work is making me tired." She stood up and walked into her house. She changed out of her dirty clothes and into a fresh pair of pj's. She laid down on her bed and soon passed out.
