"Rachel! Rachel!" a loud voice sounded in the distance.

I turned around only to be glomped by one of my best friends, Tina.

"So have you found anyone to ask out to the special dance this weekend?" Tina asked hoping to hear a bright 'yes'.

"I haven't, I don't know who I should ask," I said before gloomily looking down at the green grass.

"Aww, c'mon! You don't have anyone in mind?" I could feel her staring down at me with a bit of disappointment. I felt her hand on my chin as she lifted my head up to look in my eyes.

"Why not the blonde haired guy who runs the farm animal shop? Or the prince that just recently came to town, or maybe his butler even?" Tina stared into my eyes and I immediately felt embarrassed.

"There's also the hair stylist or that retired journalist. There's also the guy with goggles that sells pets," Tina backed away so she wasn't as close to my face. I immediately felt better and not as embarrassed as I did when she was close. I wasn't sure why I felt that way.

"I don't know, they all seem like nice guys, but I don't think I feel close to any of them to ask them out. Plus I want to hang out with you and Iroha more than one of those guys. You two are my best friends after all!"

"Damn straight we are!" a laugh came from the orange haired- well orange everything covered girl.

"Don't tell me you've been reading more of that weird stories with that language, haha," I couldn't help but tease the young girl. It's fun to mess with her and to make her feel embarrassed.

Tina began stumbling over her words, "W-what are you talking about? B-baka... Haha, it's hard to keep a straight impersonation with it being this funny. Anyway, I have to get going, the dance is in two days and I have to make sure everything is prepared. See ya later, Rachel!"

With that, she ran off towards the town and that was the last I saw of her. She was always so nice, I bet she's going to help Yuri with the tailoring. With the dance almost here, Yuri must be getting packed with the villager's requests. I should make sure I'm ready for the dance too, but I don't want to bother Yuri with another request. Maybe I could ask Allen, he has a taste for hair fashion, maybe he could help with clothing fashion?

I descended into the town but was soon caught off guard by a weird gurgling noise off in the distance of my farm. I couldn't help but become curious as to what the noise was and decided to follow it. But as soon as I went far enough on the edge of my fields to be any closer to the noise, the gurgling stopped and I couldn't locate where it was. I decided to ignore it and think someone like Toni was trying to play tricks on me again. I didn't want to be fooled again, so I headed back on my mission to ask Allen for advice on what to wear.
