"Hey Laney. This might be a weird thing to be asking right now, but have you ever heard a voice in the mountain? Like a woman's voice?" I asked the waitress while in the cafe. I had spent all night thinking about it, and wanted to figure out what it was.

"Voice? Are you hearing things Philip?" the blonde gave me a look, "Do you need to go to Konohana to get checked by the doctor there?"

"I don't need to see her," I sighed, "I forgot that you don't go to the mountain as much anymore."

"Well I've gotten busier helping my dad."

"And you've been such a good help, darling," Howard pipped in, "You said you've been hearing a voice? Maybe it's the Harvest Goddess."

"You flatter me Dad. But I don't think it'd be a Goddess."

"Thanks anyways," I nodded to the two as I finished my food, "I guess I'll ask around town."

"Alright."

"Come again! You're always welcome."

After leaving the cafe, I could see Cam and Ash talking at the flower shop. Cheryl wasn't next to the other farmer, so she must be working with Jessica. It was nice to be able to talk to Ash without her glaring. She was very overprotective of her brother.

"Hey guys."

"Oh hi Philip," Ash gave a warm smile, "On your way to the mountain again?"

"I actually wanted to ask you two something."

"Oh?" Cam put down the flower he was examining, "Did something happen?"

"Kind of. Have you guys heard any voices? Like in the mountain?"

"I don't really go that far into there. Just to the river."

"I haven't heard anything," Ash shrugged, "I would try asking Eileen."

"Thank you. I was just curious. I might have imagined the whole thing."

"Who knows," Cam put his hands together, "Maybe you should try waiting there to see if anything happens. Maybe you're right."

"I agree with Cam. I hope you figure it out," Ash looked at the time, "I better go. Cheryl wants to play today since Mom's running the store by herself today."

"Shouldn't she be working with her today?" I asked curiously, "I know that she likes to help your mother at work. Did she get sick or something? Had a fight with your mom?"

"Nothing like that Philip," he frowned, "My mother just felt like working on her own. She was in a very good mood today. Ever since yesterday actually. She was talking with Howard and he must have complimented her. But I don't think they'd work out."

"You just don't want Howard and Jessica to get together because you like Laney," I teased him. Ash went bright red at my words and put one of his hands behind his head. His gaze went to somewhere behind Cam.

"I don't know what you are talking about. She clearly likes Cam."

"Really?" the florist tilted his head, "I don't think she does. We are just living in the same house is all."

"Sure," he smirked, "I'm not blind you know."

"Or maybe you like Giorgia?" I winked at him.

"I don't hate her, but I don't feel that way," Ash ran off to make sure that he wasn't late, "See you later!"

"Bye."

"See ya," Cam echoed, giving him a lazy wave, "Where exactly did you hear this voice? Near the river?"

"It's past that," I responded, "The middle of the mountain. It's the past the two small bridges."

"I don't go there that much. But if I were you, I'd investigate it. Well I gotta get back to work."

"Alright. I'll let you work."

"Hey, kiddo," Eileen gave me a tired smile, "How's the work been?"

"Pretty good," I stretched, "You visit the mountain a lot. Have you ever heard a voice?"

"Voice?"

"Well I was in the middle of the mountain and I heard a voice. It sounded feminiane, so it must have been a lady. But I didn't see her."

"Hmmm," She placed her hand under her chin in thought, "I might have heard a voice or two."

"Really?"

"Yep. But it sounds like our mysterious voice is very shy. They might not come out during the day. I mostly heard the voices at nighttime. I would check as soon as possible, so that whoever it is, they will still be there."

"Night you say?" I was very curious now, "You sound like you've actually met the person or people."

"Not at all. I've only heard them. I have yet to see anyone," she crossed her arms in concentration, "I always give up near eight. I'd check around that time."

"Thank you Eileen," I smiled, "I'll check it out. Should I tell you what I find?"

"Yes."

"Alright. I'll go on home now, since you seem busy."

"Okay. See you soon."
