"I made a few mistakes that I regret nightly [...] and now I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me?"

×××

Being a farmer all the time wasn't an easy job for no one, but she always tried her very best at it. Always going around with the animals and the crops, she really tried to help her dad in the best way that they could, for her it felt like it was the only thing she could do. She felt way too uncomfortable with people she didn't know and was always afraid of dissapointing them with her shy appearence and starting behaviour.

What she didn't know was that the discovery she had done that day was going to change her life as she knew it forever.
She had just finished cropping for the day, it was really late in the afternoon. She carried everything she had recollected on the wheelbarrow to the barn before leaving to go back home to have dinner with her parents.

To empty what she called <<the shopping cart>>, she pushed it over with her arms and a leg, she dumped it on a pile in one of the deepest corners of the place. Before she could put the wheelbarrow straight, she detected a small white object falling to the ground, it was a paper. When she picked it up, she realised it was something written in another language she didn't speak but that she somehow could understand.

<<Δημήτηρ, κροπ φιελδ, 3αμ>>

The fact that it was a transcription may have been an explanation of why se understood three quarters of the note. 3am at the crop field, that's what it literally said.

Her gut told her she shouldn't be trusting this kind of misterious and suspicious things but her strong sense of curiosity couldn't be helped either.
She didn't want to worry her parents so, when they were fast asleep, she carefully put on her shoes, took a torch and calmly made her way to the field trying to be as unnoticeable as she could and not even bothering to put on some regular clothing.
Once in the named place, she became very dissapointed when she saw no one was there. The idea of going back home to sleep sprung inside her mind wheb she heard a very sweet, female voice singing in the suddently strong wind.
