Getting to town // Y/n's POV // Spring 1

It takes about seven hours on a bus from Zuzu city to Pelican town, of course it was the cause of the stops it takes for others to get on.

I had a lot of time to draw and sleep.

My music playlist was finished by the time we were about 10 minutes away thanks to my love for music.

The bus pulled to a stop, swallowing the lump in my throat anxiously.

Even if it was a small town.. everybody knew each other while I knew no one...

It would be hard to explain if they all knew and remembered me while I had not recollecting memories of them.

I always thought the cause of my poor memory was just Joja corrupting my brain..

My dad never told me anything on the town or why I couldn't remember it, not that he told me anything...

Our conversations always ended with arguments about mom and my reputation at school.

Peaking through the windows, there was a pretty red head waiting by the stop sign, my cheeks burning up at how pretty she was.

I slightly panic as I step off the bus, she walks up to me with a small spring in her step which could make anybody smile.

"Y/n! Look at you! You probably don't remember since it's been so long but I'm Robin!" The ginger pulled me into a hug, practically crushing my ribs in the process.

"H-hello.. I'm sorry I don't remember much.." 

Wow smooth.. can you get any lamer?

"Don't worry about it ok? It was a long time ago! Anyways I'm the local carpenter, Mayor Lewis sent me here to fetch you and show you the way to your new home, He's there right now tidying things up for your new arrival"

Lewis hm? I think grandpa mentioned something about saying hi to Lewis for him.

"Uh yeah thank you" I smiled at her trying to hide the very obvious blush that had plastered itself on my face.

She smiles back and leads me towards my new farm.

As the farm comes into view, my mouth dropped at the sight.

I tried to speak but nothing came out.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!?

If I didn't know any better I would've thought this was more of a jungle than it was a forest.

"It's a mess but you were always a natural as a kid, helping your Grandpa all the time.. so I wouldn't doubt on it sweetheart" Robin reassured me, putting her hand on my shoulder.

As a kid?

She must've been older than me then..

The more I look at her the more familiar she seemed.

Robin.. Carpenter..

Just as my train of thought was starting to remember who she was, the door of the cabin swung open with a bang to the wall.

An old man stood in the doorway, he had very tacky clothing tastes but I guess with his character it suited him in a way..

"Y/n! It's good to see you! You were so little last time you were here, you do rememebr everybody here right?"

Somehow I already knew that the collected hopes of the towns expectations for me would end up crashing down...

"I wouldn't count on it.. my memory is a little foggy.. it was so long ago, I don't even remember the last time I was here.. If I'm correct I came for a bit around at 14 years old but I'm still not sure..."
