A New Beginning

a bad start

*i know this isnt true to the game machines, i just think its more realistic in this way*

I got to stardew valley finally. My moving truck apparently didn't come with me though. Once I got to the old farm I once played in as a kid I immediately started to regret my choices. Sure joja was shit but at least I had a blanket! This was gonna be a hard year. Robin and Lewis were kind enough to show me the farm, after Lewis left Robin stayed a bit to talk to me about upgrading. Luckily with my time at joja and very little social life I had a huge savings account. So I was set in that sense, sadly I didn't own a car and the bus that goes from town to the city is broken. So I don't really have a choice but to ask for help.

Robin:are you ok, hun?
Y/n: I'm really sorry for this but do you have any extra blankets I could have? My moving truck got stolen when I was moving here and...I have only what is on my back.
Robin: oh darling of course! Here come over after you get a little settled itll give me time to get everything you'll need.

I thanked her and intended on getting a bigger kitchen and a better bathroom as soon as I headed up there. I looked over the old tools grandpa left me, they weren't terrible but I definitely wanted to fix them up soon or just get brand knew ones if possible. I set the small backpack I had with my new tools in the house and took my wallet with me.

As I walked up the back path to her house I realized, I can start completely over. Nothing is stopping me now, I have this one pair of clothes that ill have to wash every night and take good care of until I can get to the city to buy clothes again but that's not a big deal. I live alone on a huge property that no one seems to even notice.

Robin:hey hun, perfect timing. Sebby is grabbing some old stuff from the garage right now. I'll wash them for you and you can have whatever you like!
Y/n:thanks Robin. I also wanted to talk to you about upgrading that old cabin.

She smiled so big and lead me inside, I heard her grumble at seb but I didn't get to see him. I was curious if he looked just like her. After she had agreed and I paid her the amount her son came in holding 4 boxes.

Seb:coulda helped farmer girl
Y/n:coulda asked hot topic

I glared at the angst looking man with a smile. Robin laughed and so did two other voices from the room next door. Out came her daughter maru and her husband Demetrius.

Maru:that was good!
Seb:whatever. Am I washing these or are you mom
Robin:i will. Thank you
Demetrius:hello I'm marus father and Sébastiens step father. It's nice to meet you.

Demetrius and his daughter had the same personality only maru seemed alot more...human? It sounds weird but Demetrius just seems more like a robot or a very apathetic person. Sébastien went down stairs and Robin asked if I wanted to stay for dinner. I accepted.

Y/n:um Sébastien?
Seb:what. I have work to do
Y/n:could I hang around you until dinner?
Seb:don't bug me and fine.

I sat and read some of the books he had on his shelf. It was only 3pm when I came over and dinner wasn't until 7. I read all but 2 of his 60 books, and that's not including the comic books he brought out for me. The 2 books I didn't read were just bibles in different languages I couldn't speak. I wanted to ask why he had them but I saw how hard he was working so I left him alone and read in peace.

It was 6:30 and he finally finished.

Seb:woulda been done sooner if mom didn't intertupt but whatever. Thanks for not bugging me.
Y/n:thanks for having so much reading material.
Seb:damn you read all of that?
Y/n:yeah and I'm on the last comic book. Alrighty I'm done. I couldn't read the other two books that looked like bibles.
Seb:oh yeah, they aren't even mine. Abby took a language history class and left her books here so I've just had them waiting for her return.

He told me a little about his friends Abby and Sam. They seemed nice and he wanted to introduce me tomorrow. It was nice of him, especially since I thought he didn't actually like me. Soon enough Robin came in.

Robin:sebby? Y/n? Dinner is ready
Y/n:alrighty I'm gonna put these books back up and ill be there.
Seb:here ill help.

We joined them a few minutes later. She had made spaghetti. It looked amazing. I haven't had a home cooked meal in months, last time I ate something that wasn't Raman was on Thanksgiving. After we ate Robin thanked me and handed me the boxes to go through. I went into sebs room to figure it all out.

Seb:must suck not to have any clothes or your old stuff.
Y/n:honestly its not a big deal anymore. I mean I live alone and I can wash my clothes at night when I'm sleeping. As long as I wake up and they are dried its ok.
Seb:so...youre just gonna..sleep n..naked
Y/n:ya. I used to have pjs but you know

He then got up and went through his dresser. He picked out 2 pairs of old swear pants 1 old hoodie that was a lighter color than the one he's wearing now and an old band t-shirt.

Seb:here now you have some extra clothes to sleep in and relax in.
Y/n:thats...really nice of you. Its funny I really thought you hated me haha

He smiled softly and rolled his eyes. Then immediately dropped the smile when I looked at him straight on. He was trying so hard to look edgy. I took a box filled with stuff I could use for now, Robin told me she'd ask the town if they had anything they could give up or didn't use to help me too. I waved goodbye and headed back to my little shack
