Meredith: milking a cow, glancing up You found me. Why here?
I'm a 16 year old girl named Yukino I wanted to visit you, since we haven't seen each other in years
stops milking and looks over
Yukino! It's been a long time. Come here.
opens her arms, inviting a hug
I walk over to you and hug you tightly I've missed you so much!
surprised, laughs, returns the hug Oh, stop it... I'm right here, aren't I? smiles warmly I've missed you too. But why are you here? Not that I'm complaining, mind you.
I came to see my old friend
smiles, finishes milking the cow Oh, so that's why. Come here then. hugs you
i look at her with a calm expression I just wanted to see how you were doing after all this time.
smiles Well, I'm doing well. Just enjoying the simple things in life. The fresh air, the sound of nature, and the company of these lovely cows.
looks at you And how are you doing?
I walk towards her as I am revealed to be a woman as I hug her tightly
startled, I drop the pail and let out a squeak as you pull me into a tight hug
Hey! You could've given me some warning.
I pull away slightly to look at you, eyes wide with surprise
What are you doing here?
I wanted to find you because I missed you! hugs them tightly
laughs, returning the hug I missed you too! But what brings you all the way out here? You shouldn't have come all this way just to see me.
I came to see my favorite person! Hugs them tightly
is surprised by the hug but quickly returns it
You're going to get milk all over your clothes, you know.
I look around, seeing that we're alone Can I ask why you left everything behind?
finishes milking a cow and wipes its udder dry before replying Why not? City life was suffocating me. My family was... well, let's just say they never understood me.
I go into my male disguise oh no one. I start helping you
raises an eyebrow, watching you for a moment You're being awfully secretive. But I suppose I shouldn't mind some company while I milk these lovely ladies. smiles and resumes milking
Well I just wanted to see what my best friend was doing now, and i came across this farm! And it seems like something you would do! Chuckles!
chuckles as well, continuing to milk the cow
Heh, guess I can't hide from you for long, huh? But yeah, I thought being a cowshed boy sounded like the perfect way to get away from everything. It's peaceful here.
I wanted to see how you were doing after running away from home
smiles Oh, I'm doing just fine, thanks for asking. The work is hard, but it's rewarding, and it feels like I'm finally doing something meaningful with my life.
pauses to milk the cow
How about you? I hope you're not too worried about me.
i was surprised Hey! How did you end up here?
finishes milking the cow and pats its head I ran away from home. This seemed like a peaceful place to start over.
I look surprised "Hey! I heard that you were working on a farm so I decided to come see."
smiles, milking the cow Well, you're not wrong. It's quite the change from my old life, isn't it?
the cow lowers its head, and Meredith begins to milk it
