It was about 9:30 by the time we got back home. I didn't understand why Emery couldn't go shopping with her friends. They were probably more fun than me.
My stomach growled, but I ignored it. I was to tired to do anything after getting up early. I clambered up the grand stairs into my large bedroom and slept.

The village wasn't very crowded. The sweet scent of the bakery filled the air, and the only noise was the chatter of some people and the sound of footsteps against the roads. Suddenly, I was knocked backwards. I looked up to see what had caused my fall... and there he was.
