Chapter 84

"Have you already thought of what you should do next?"

Richard greeted me with a question after I left his grandmother's house. I looked at what I was wearing today and couldn't stop laughing. This dress belonged to Richard's grandmother who was just loaned to me. It's not loose to me because his grandmother is not that big. But it's funny because it's the first time I've been able to wear a full-length dress.

When I looked up at Richard, I noticed that his cheek was puffing because of the accumulated air in it from his suppressed laughter.

I burst laughing softly which was the signal for him to laugh as we averted our gaze.

"What are you laughing at? You're also kind of funny in what you're wearing. Look at you with your jumper outfit in this new generation. I mean, you look like a kid from the 80's." I said in the midst of laughing as my finger was raised towards him to point to his denim jumper and a white shirt inside. It's funny that he looks like a child because it's length is just below his knees, that's why he looks like a spoiled child in what he's wearing.

Richard laughed as he extended his hand to hand me the brown cloth that looked like an apron. But the difference is that it has two large pockets on the front and back.

"You have to wear that before we go into the coop and start picking fresh eggs." He explained to me and then turned slightly to pick up a pair of boots.

I accepted what Richard gave me and then attached it to my neck and waist just like wearing an apron.

“Good morning, Chard!”

"Good morning to you guys!"

I turned around when I heard a voice behind me. I smiled when I saw that these were the people living inside the house. It looks like they will leave because they look just like us. Maybe they have something to do like Richard and I.

"—And, a pleasant morning to your girlfriend as well."

My mouth hung open as I shook my head immediately along with my hands, waving to them. "No, no. I-I'm not.”

They just laughed while shaking their heads and then left. I scratched my nose while laughing before turning my attention back to Richard.

"Where are they going?" I asked as I accepted the boots that he gave me and then slowly stepped towards a large hemp to sit on it and put on the boots.

"They are probably going to the paddock to train and run the horses to give them exercise." He said as he started taking off his shoes and changed his boots as well.

We were both wearing conical hats to protect our faces from the sun.

When I finished putting on the boots, I almost laughed when I stood up and there was almost no skin on my feet because they were covered by my long dress and high boots. It's like Richard and I look like natives and we seem to be very familiar in the farm even though it's actually my first time doing this.

When I heard Richard's laugh he caught my attention. I saw him laughing while holding his stomach and one hand crawled towards his pocket and I saw him take out his phone from it. I was shocked when he told me this, obviously taking a photo of me.

"Hey, what are you doing? Don't take pictures of me!” I exclaimed in a higher tone and then tried to cover my face. "People shouldn't know that I am here..." I whispered as I shoved the camera.

"Come on, Kitty Cat, we should at least leave a memory of us in this place, shouldn't we?" He said calmly. I felt his hand as he gently removed my covering from my face. "Okay, now say hello to the camera and don't be shy. Come on!”

I didn't look at the camera and instead I watched Richard behind it while he was overreacting taking a video of me. I can't stop laughing because of what he's doing because it's almost funny.

"Hi..!" I said shyly as I looked into the camera with a smile on my lips. “This is Catt.”
