Rachel's POV
I've been here for about a year. I was given a quiet difficult task by the mayor, Dunhill. He's a nice man, always optimism and cheery. He dreamed of returning the lively town once again. To be honest I've done a good job. Although I haven't finished all of the town restoration. I made friends with all citizens, especially them who are about the same age as me. And just telling, I'm currently working on the town restoration 3. Besides of farming and rebuilding the town, I love hanging out with Neil, Allen, and Rod. They're all really nice and have their own unique personality.
Like Neil, when I first met him, which was just a few days after the first time I arrived at my farm. He was so cold, and didn't seem to have any intention of making friends with anyone. The other citizen kept telling me it was useless to try to befriend him. They said he was hopelessly anti social. But, hey! Everyone deserves warm feelings from others, right? Right? And so.. I have been visiting him ever since. And who said it was hopeless to befriend him? Screw that. Now he's nice as anyone else could be. He even gave me chocolate cake at the harmony day. I don't know why but he's always smiling whenever I visit him. But, oh well that's a good thing, right?
And then there's Allen. His first impression was horrible and kind of awkward. To say he's a selfless, caring, and warm young man isn't really true. Actually, he's kind of selfish, a little bit of narcissistic, and has a high self confidence. But really! He's not that bad! Deep down he's actually kind and somehow shows his interest in others although he won't admit it no matter what. Now he seems really caring to me.
And finally Rod. Easy to tell he's really cheerful and outgoing. True, he's the easiest to befriend. But, who would ever thought he has a gloomy past? I didn't know either, but somehow I got a feeling he has. He never looked sad even once. He conceals his sadness really well. But I'm sure he's just wearing fake smiles and down there he is falling apart. I don't know why I know that. Best friends instinct, I guess.
And today.. the first day of summer! My second year here and I miss my old home so much! But I actually prefer living here. Back home,we have a beach. Since I was a little girl I always love to visit the beach. I had passion for beaches. When I was about five, I used to pretend that I was a mermaid. Swimming with both my legs tied up and wearing necklaces made from clams. Now, I think I must be out of my mind for doing that. Too bad Echo Town doesn't have a beach. Well there's a river but it feels different. Well, it'd be different when you drink lemonade and milk right? Even though they're both water, but the sensation feels... just not right. Darn it,I think too much! It's 7 am and I'd better off to work before my animals groan in hunger!
I've finished all the work today. Since my pets aren't that reliable so I need to take my animals outside, talked to them, brushed them, gave them treats, and collected their produces. And then I tilled the land and sowed some seeds and also I watered them. So, work's done and time to have fun! it's still 12 pm! Whoa, I still have a long time to spend!
I promised Neil, Allen, and Rod to hang out today. They said the don't have any work today since today's the Summer Day. I didn't know there's a Summer Day. But, oh well we should be enjoying this holiday.
"Chel! You're late! You said you'll be here at 12 but look, you're two minutes late!" The blondie, Rod first said.
"Aww come on. It's only two minutes.. Wolly produced more wool than usual so I need to shear a lot!"
"Well, if that's the reason.. that should be fine then." Neil finally spoke. I nodded in relief. Still panting from running a lot from my farm to the river area.
"Let's get going, shall we milady? I found a place that fits your beauty perfectly." Allen, the well-spoken one love to tease me, seriously!
"Hey guys..guys! Guess what I've been reading lately?" I yelled enthusiastically while hiding a book behind my back.
"How to be a smarter farmer for dumb beginners." Neil joked.
"Guide to realize how great and handsome your hairdresser is?"
"Oh oh I know I know! RPG cheats for psp, right?" Rod has taken his obsession a step too far..
"Seriously your guesses are really awful. I'm not that dumb, Neil. But yeahh. I know you're a lot better than me. Haha. And you must be joking, right Allen?seriously! And no, Rod. I don't play Psp . Guys! It's a great novel! Ohh! Here!" I showed them my book. And their jaws dropped as if they saw a zombie eating their lasagna.
"Look! It's The Fault in Our Stars! It's a reaaaally great novel!oh oh it's about Hazel Grace Lancaster and Augustus Waters! They are both suffering from cancer. Too bad Gus died! Oh no.. poor poor Hazel! Well! Gus is so freaking hot. I love him and and-" as I continue to ramble about TFiOS..
Normal POV
'Psstt.. is she going out of her mind?' Rod whispered to Neil and Allen.
' I'm asking myself again why do I love her.' Neil sighed.
'I don't understand girls. What's so hot about that August whatever guy. I'm sooo much better.' Allen admitted confidently.
'Let's snap her out of her imagination so she would pay more attention to us.' Rod suggested and the others nodded.
"It's so romantic. Lucky Hazel! I believe true love comes in our hardest time. I hope to find someone like that. Someone who will always be there for me. In happiness and sadness. Whatever happens he won't ever leave me." Rachel sighed.
"..." all of the guys shutted tight. True, all three of them like Rachel. But nobody's brave enough to confess, because of...maybe Rachel's way too innocent mind. They don't want to break her pure innocent mind...yet.
"Rachel. We wanted to have fun right? Can you please put that book away from your beautiful hands? How about we all have a little picnic here and eat our handmade lunches?" Allen said calmly.
"Do you want to waste my sandwich, huh? I woke up at four just to make it." Neil said as he looked away, embarrassed when he realized what he said.
Rachel's POV
"I'm so sorry guys..I got overly obsessed with this book and totally forgot we are here to have fun and relax ourselves from the busy daily works and we rarely got a day off! I'm sorry! " I looked down sadly.
"It's okay." They said in unison as they hugged me. Friendly hugs always make me better.
"Let's have a picnic! Do you know I made cheesecakes? My cheesecakes taste great, you know! Here, have some! The cheese is originally from Belly! Her milk tastes sweet really!"
I noticed their smiles while they put some cheesecake into their plates. Having best friends always feel magnificent.
TBC.
