let's start the story ╮(╯▽╰)╭
Jamie awoke with the first rays of dawn filtering through the curtains of his small bedroom.
Stretching lazily, he listened to the familiar sounds of the countryside:
Birds chirping outside his window, the distant lowing of cows, and the soft rustle of leaves in the morning breeze.
With a contented sigh, Jamie threw back the covers and swung his legs over the side of the bed.
Jamie
*thinking*
hm...let's get going...
He was used to early mornings on the farm; it was a routine he had grown accustomed to since childhood.
His grandparents depended on him for help, and Jamie took pride in being able to assist them with their daily chores.
Slipping into his worn jeans and a faded plaid shirt, Jamie tiptoed downstairs,
Jamie
*thinking*
I should get their and start the work....
Jamie tiptoed downstairs, careful not to wake his sleeping grandparents.
The farmhouse was quiet at this hour, the only sound his soft footsteps on the creaky wooden stairs.
Stepping outside, Jamie inhaled deeply, filling his lungs with the crisp, earthy scent of the morning.
Jamie
*sighs*
ah… It feels nice in the morning..
The sun had just begun to rise, casting a warm golden glow over the fields stretching out before him. It was going to be a beautiful day.
Making his way to the barn, Jamie found his grandfather already hard at work, tending to the animals.
With a smile and a nod, Jamie joined him, falling into the familiar rhythm of farm life.
Jamie
*looks at grandpa*
grandpa you woke up already?
Steve (grandpa)
*smiles*
yeah I just got up early let's continue the work
Together, they fed the chickens, milked the cows, and tended to the crops, their conversation sparse but comforting in its familiarity.
Jamie and his grandfather finished their morning chores, the sun climbing higher in the sky as they worked.
As they walked back towards the farmhouse, Jamie couldn't shake the feeling that something was weighing on his grandfather's mind.
Jamie
*thinking*
something's definitely going on in his mind I don't know what is he thinking?
Sitting down in the cozy living room, Jamie's grandparents exchanged a meaningful glance before his grandfather cleared his throat, breaking the silence that hung between them.
he began, his voice gentle but serious,
Steve (grandpa)
There's something we need to talk to you about.
Jamie's heart skipped a beat, a flicker of apprehension dancing in his chest.
He exchanged a nervous glance with his grandmother before turning his attention back to his grandfather, waiting for him to continue.
Steve (grandpa)
We've been thinking a lot lately
Steve (grandpa)
About your future here on the farm.
Jamie's stomach clenched with unease, a sinking feeling settling in the pit of his stomach.
Jamie
*thinking*
oh…no I know where is this going...
He had a feeling he knew where this conversation was headed, and he wasn't sure he was ready to hear it.
His grandmother chimed in, her voice soft and sympathetic,
Steve (grandpa)
We know how much you love helping us with the farm, but we worry that you're missing out on other opportunities, especially when it comes to your career.
