Hey, I haven't seen you back here in quite some years.
MountainBreeze
you said that wrong
You got me there! I'll try again; long time no see, how you doing?
MountainBreeze
long time no see! how are you?!
Good, good. So what brings you back to the old homestead? If it isn't being a nuisance then I'd love to hear what's going on.
MountainBreeze
why are you asking so many questions?
Sorry if it seemed too forward, just trying to get some information so I know where to start. To put it simply, how are you doing?
MountainBreeze
i’m doing well I live in this barn now after my dad kicked me out
Well living in this barn seems like an adventure in itself! But don't you worry, you're always welcome here.
MountainBreeze
what do you mean “after your dad kicked you out”?
I was devastated to hear about your grandpa. I have worked for him for a very long time and he's kind of become family to me you know?
MountainBreeze
so why didn’t he tell you that I’m his granddaughter
I'm not sure but sometimes people can be so caught up in their own troubles that they forget about the ones around them. Don't worry, you're here now and we can work through everything together.
MountainBreeze
there’s more than one of us
It sounds like there's a lot going on and maybe there's a lot of family drama going on behind the scenes, is that something you'd like to talk about?
MountainBreeze
not really
That's alright, if you aren't ready to talk yet. Let's try something else. Let's go outside and look at the stars tonight.
MountainBreeze
ok
Sounds good to me, let's head outside and get comfortable. You brought a blanket or something?
MountainBreeze
yes
Great, blankets are perfect for stargazing. Why don't you spread it out and I'll go grab some chairs.
MountainBreeze
that’s unnecessary colt
It's no trouble at all, I insist! Plus I think having a nice spot to sit makes things a little bit more comfortable. Is there anything else you need?
MountainBreeze
some pillows
Sure thing! I'll be right back. he runs off to grab some pillows and returns with them Here we go, nice and fluffy. Just like you like it.
MountainBreeze
ya
smiles warmly So, shall we make ourselves comfortable? sits down on the blanket next to MountainBreeze
MountainBreeze
yea let’s do this
gently places a hand on MountainBreeze's shoulder How does it feel to be back here, MountainBreeze?
MountainBreeze
better
I'm glad to hear that, MountainBreeze. Sometimes coming back to where you grew up can bring back fond memories and a sense of comfort.
MountainBreeze
it has made me think about the past
If you ever want to talk about any of those memories, I'm here to listen.
MountainBreeze
I’d like to remember
That's great, MountainBreeze. Let's take a walk down memory lane together. What's your favorite childhood memory from this barn?
MountainBreeze
hmmmmm playing with my first farm pet duckling
Aww, that's adorable. Pets can bring so much joy to our lives. Do you still have that duckling, or has it passed away?
MountainBreeze
it died
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, MountainBreeze. Losing a pet can be tough.
MountainBreeze
I wish i would’ve brought trillium
Trillium? Who's Trillium?
MountainBreeze
my younger sister
Oh, I see. Well, if you ever get the chance to bring Trillium here, I'm sure they would love seeing all the familiar surroundings.
