Y/N's ℙ𝕆𝕍 Sunday, 7 PM

Oh God, what am I going to do? It's almost Monday and I haven't done any weekend work for my job away from this paradise.
You see, although I came here to relax and take a step back from my boring-ass office job, they still gave me work! What the fuck?!
And instead of having meetings face to face, I now have them on Skype. Who even still uses Skype?

I decide to head outside, away from the sight of my laptop. When I first moved to this quote on quote getaway I set up my tent near the beach and I've never changed location. I like my house here so much that I made a little relax area with a beach towel, fruits and a pair of palm trees. Speaking of, although it's very nice, it's also very wet at night. Since it's fall, it rains a lot. Plus, the sea washing over it every now and then.
So, I guess my beach area is a no-go.

I began to just... Walk. Walk until I came to a halt at the spot next to resident services, a picnic area! I remember me and Maple setting this place up, she was so enthusiastic about the food she baked, it was so cute. I remembered I had some cherries in my pockets and began eating them as I slowly lowered my body to the ground.

As I sat here, alone, I started to realize how many mistakes I've made in the past few months. First, there was me getting into a huge fight with my boss, causing me to get demoted to a normal worker, me moving to this dumb island causing even more stress than before, and lastly letting one of my best friends, Diva, leave this island. Listen, she insisted! I still miss her a lot though.
I hope she still sends me letters...

I became frustrated with my thoughts and started shouting random shit at the top of my lungs, everyone is asleep so it won't bother anyone. My thoughts kept telling me that I'm the one who caused ww3, even though I, in fact, did not. Ww3 hasn't even happened yet. I'm glad I could realize that as fast as I did, otherwise, I would've been on the ground sobbing and tearing my eye sockets open, much like some shit straight out of a Junji Ito short. I think Tomio at the near end of red turtleneck fits.

Switching to tom nook's pov now chums

It was a peaceful night at my desk, I decided to have an off day since Isabella figured I needed one. Currently watching random NookTube videos about food. I think they're called mukbangs...

The guy was just about to gobble the chicken leg but then me and him were rudely interrupted by someone screaming out of...anger? I think so.
It must be a resident since nobody's visiting today. I'll have to check it out.

Back to you, dear reader!

As I sat here screaming I heard someone running up to me. I stopped screaming and started running to the other side of the island, Who knows whos chasing me? It might be someone trying to pickpocket me.
I started to get tired of running and sat behind a tree near the sea.
My breath hitched as a taller figure slowly walked towards me, but as it came closer..
We both scream our names in unison.
"Were you the one screaming a minute ago?" Tom Nook asked, seemingly worried.

❦︎ You talking
ꨄ︎ Tom Nook talking

❦︎"No...?"
ꨄ︎"Stop lying. You wouldn't be running if it wasn't you."
❦︎"Alright. Yes, it was me. Can I go now?"
ꨄ︎"Not yet"
After another millisecond, he slowly sat down on the pillow next to me.
ꨄ︎"Why were you screaming?"
❦︎"Why should I tell you?"
ꨄ︎"Because I care about you Y/N. Now tell me, please, what's wrong?"
I must admit, I was acting a bit harsh towards my local landlord, I'll just tell him the truth.
❦︎"My work has been real stressful lately, especially now that I'm on a supposed vacation. It just isn't a vacation at all, you know?"
ꨄ︎"I understand. Well I'm sorry that our getaway didn't really live it's purpose. Just know that I can always lend you an ear. Anytime. Anywhere."
❦︎"How anywhere?"
ꨄ︎"The calling app on your phone, of course."
❦︎"Oh, I don't think I have that. I only have the construction app and the critterpedia."
ꨄ︎"Right, I guess I forgot to install it for you."
Nook quickly grabbed my phone, ignoring my protests, and went to a website and installed an app. Most likely the calling app.
ꨄ︎"Here you go"
He handed me my phone with a new app on the home screen.
ꨄ︎"Me, Isabelle, Sable, Mable and Orville's contacts are already there. If you want a specific residents number, you can go ask them."
❦︎"Thank you so much for helping me calm down, Mr.Nook. I appreciate your help."
ꨄ︎"No problem, and please, call me Tom."
❦︎"Alright, well, see you later, Tom."
I waved goodbye, stood up from the pillow, brushed the dirt off my pants and left off to my house.

I'm definitely not magically cured of my stress now, just put to an ease.
