"Fauna." I offered. "Right!" he exclaimed then gave me a look of confusion, "Have 당신 been to the Town Hall?"
"No, sir. I came to check everything out here."
"Well, then!" the tanuki escorted me outside, "Don't come back here until after 당신 go to the Town Hall!"
I hauled my luggage along the few feet separating Nook's Cranny from the Town Hall. Inside the Town Hall, everything was much tidier than Nook's Cranny. A large circular pinstriped red and 주황색, 오렌지 rug lay on the wooden floor. A small green mat and a red one lay in front of two opposing windows with white pictures on them. A formal, elderly 터틀, 거북 was snoozing in a 책상, 데스크 at the back, and a jolly, white 펠리컨, 펠리 칸 was answering 질문 given 의해 a red squirrel. The 다람쥐 was extremly beautiful! She had a yellow pinstipe curling along her tail, with paws that looked dotted 의해 whipped cream. Her curly yellow hair tempted me to touch it and her bright blue eyes looked like the ocean, which were lined with green eyeliner at the top. The 다람쥐 said, "Thank you, Pelly." And trotted a couple steps before she saw me. Pelly went back to work, how polite of her not to spy. The 다람쥐 said, "Hello. Pelly made an announcment about your arrival Fauna." She smiled, her lips were so thin 당신 could miss them if 당신 blinked just once. Her fragile smile creased back to a frown, and the 다람쥐 burst into tears. "Oh I'm sorry! I'm so so sorry! Please forgive me!" I was startled at this. First of all a gentle 다람쥐 was crying while holding onto my waist, and 초 of all, I didn't understand why! "Excuse me?" I said. The 다람쥐 looked up at me. "What's wrong?"
"I'm sorry for being so rude..."
...
"My name is Caroline."
I forced myself not to show it, but that was sad...someone crying because they forgot to introduce themselves...to me. I thought the idea was a bit obsessive toward new people. Then I remembered how polite she was to even care that I was a living breathing person. Back in my old town, Gronzo, no one said a single word to me. I had no friends, except the ones my mom and dad made. Living alone, with someone to actually care, I think that's what I've been wanting. Caroline seemed to respect that I was hesitating, because when I finally replied, she had gotten on to her hind paws. "Nice to meet you."
"Thank you. Fauna, if someone is giving 당신 a hard time, don't forget to come visit me! Living alone can get rather dramatic." With that, Caroline trotted off, her paws seeming to hover across the floor.
Pelly looked up and said, "Caroline is a sweetie isn't she?" "Yes," I agreed. Pelly put her papers down and explained, "I have papers for your new house almost done. As soon as they're finished, 당신 should head over to Tom Nook's store 다음 door. He will be your landlord and help 당신 out. I'll send 당신 a notice for all of this. For now, why don't 당신 ask someone if 당신 can stay over for awhile?" Pelly winked at me, she knew that I was going to ask Caroline.
"Okay, thank you."
I set off to find Caroline.
According to my map, Carloline lived 의해 the beach. I met the other residents, Blaire and Elvis along the way. Blaire was rather cold and looked regretful to meeting me. But I greeted her with a smile anyway. Elvis was a bit kinder, but called me plucky for going into "the lion's den." I also went to the museum, the tailor Able Sisters and met all of the kind people there!
I stood in front of Caroline's large house. I knocked my knuckles against the baby blue door. It opened up and Caroline said before I could explain, "Of course 당신 can!" Everything about her just seemed to make her 더 많이 amazing. Someone so nice, pretty, and lucky to have a giant house. Caroline led me to a small bedroom. Fluffy, white disarray beds were lined up, just two. Caroline asked me which one I wanted. "Uh...the one that's neater." Caroline gave me an amused grin. I put my luggage there and Caroline explained, "I knew you'd be coming today, so the 일 before I did a little research on you." I nodded. "I also went ahead and bought some new things for you. I had this whole plan planned out."
"Even the part when 당신 cried?"
Caroline looked at me with small abuse and extreme 'Is that what 당신 think of me?' I looked away unable to meet her gaze. Why did I ask that? Would she kick me out? I felt tears burning up in my eyes. I grabbed her waist and threw a giant tantrum on her skirt. After a few minutes, i felt Caroline's creamy paw sit on my back. I listened to her hot breath agaisnt my cheek say, "Caroline wannabe." I looked up to see her smiling her thin smile. Though tears were still visible on my cheeks, we both just broke out lauging. I got up off her waist. Both our dresses bore a wet stain. "Now we have matching shirts," I said, and we both giggled, "I planed that happen all along." And we both broke out laughing.
Caroline took my downstairs to the kitchen. There was a bucket of fat 물고기 on the counter and Caroline told me what to do to make fishsticks. I started 노래 as we fried a fish. "We are frying some fish, fish, fish," I sang.
"Fish, fish, fish!" Caroline repeated.
"We are baking some fish, fish, fish!"
"Fish, fish, fish!"
We sang the whole time until it was done. I was ravenous, but Caroline took nibbles asnd told me stories of past time in Animal Valley. After ward we went back up to the bedroom. She turned on the lights and I saw it was much bigger than I saw in the dark! Much 더 많이 furniture too! There was a long dresser made of 단풍, 메이플 wood that was lined with pictures of Caroline and some of her friends. Paintings lined the upper left corner. Designs of shirts were on display. A 침상, 소파 and small 텔레비전 was in the middle. Everything here depicted who Caroline was, a 다람쥐 with a dream. The dream soaked into me, but yet I didn't understand it. Caroline was oddly confusing, but we had a lot of fun anyway.
