Animal Crossing Stories- Issue one

Saturday 5th of July

Today I was feeling excited and refreshed... Until I saw that obnoxious business man outside my house. He said he could put me in a contest to win a free holiday. I just walked away.
I bumped into my good pal Butch. He was like the fatherly figure in the neighborhood. He always seemed to be yelling at me though; "What the HECK did you want anyway!?"
He said I should clean my house before he arrived to do something about the flea market. Then I remembered that today was the day for the Flea Market! I had never participated in one before but I was confident and willing to learn.

The sun was shining bright it was noticeable that the rainy season had just finished today. I put my umbrella away and hurt a very strange sound coming from all around me. I finally recognized the sound: it was a cicada! I spotted a few on the trees. My net had too much drag when I swung so it would never catch it! In the end of it I did manage to catch one brown cicada and one horned beetle.

I entered Whitney's house for no particular reason and she looked as though she was trying to act like the shopkeeper Nook. She was selling some of her stuff. So this was the flea market and it wasn't too great. She tried to sell me her sofa for 2,000 bells, but she was clearly ripping me off. And everything else reeked of rip-off.
I left.

I went to my house and organized a few things before Butch got there. I wasn't completely done when he arrived with a greedy smile on his face. He asked about everything I had. I managed to sell a corn plant for 800 bells, but there wasn't anything else for sale. He seemed disappointed but he remained in my abode! I almost walked out the front door before he finally decided to leave.

What a day huh? Crappy Flea Market and Cicadas...Yeah... The best.

*Did I mention a few days ago I saw a UFO!!!*
