Yesterday, I was surprised to find a goodbye letter from Caroline in the mail. She left without warning. 🙁
I also got my monthly bank statement from the postal division at town hall. I earned 90,250 bells in interest this month.
When I went over to Robin’s house, I saw that Truffles was also there visiting. I didn’t realize it initially, but it was actually Robin’s birthday party! Fortunately, I’ve been keeping a couple of spare furniture items in my pockets, so that I always have an emergency birthday gift on hand. So I gave her my Mrs. Flamingo. Happy birthday, Robin!
She gave me a lovely vanity as a party favor.
Today, I got another surprise. Caroline’s replacement has already moved in! And guess who it is? Marina the octopus!
Marina just moved out of my City Folk town in October, and she lived in my New Horizons island as recently as 2023. So I’ve been seeing a lot of her in the past few years. But that’s not a problem, because I like Marina a lot! Welcome to Forest, Marina! 🙂
Robin asked me for some new clothes, so I bought her an earthy knit at Able Sisters. But when I took it over to her, she wouldn’t accept it! She said it would look better on me.
She said she didn’t want to make the other girls feel bad by looking too pretty in it? So why then would it look better on me?
Filbert asked me to deliver a letter to Truffles for him. But as soon as we finished the chat, Truffles walked right up to us and started a conversation with Filbert! She told Filbert that this was his chance to tell me something.
But he denied having anything to admit to me, and the conversation left him depressed. I then gave Truffles the letter from Filbert, and she told me to say hello to him (again, he was right there). But I couldn’t tell Filbert anything yet, because he was too upset.
Once he finally started feeling better, he thanked me for delivering the letter, and he rewarded me with 510 bells.
