I sigh in exhaustion as I leaned gainst the iron hoe I held in my right hand.

'I wish Dubster is here. He's usually good at these stuff' I thought as I whipped the sweat forming on my brow.

"Thanks for the help Diamond. I wouldn't have finished this without you." The farmer said as he gave the me a bottle full of cold water.

I took the bottle from his hand and cuck down the drink before giving him a nod in reply.

After giving back the bottle and putting away the hoe and extra seeds, I decided to head towards the lake just outside the village.

By the time I reached the lake, the sun was already half in the sky. I sat at the edge as I blankly stared into the clear water.

"Diamond look! It's a fish!" A little boy cried out cheerfully as he pointed at the red fish swimming in the lake.

"You're right Hayden. That fish is called a Salmon" I said with a smile as I watched the little boy continue watching the fishes swimming in the lake.

"Can we one day have salmon for dinner?" He asked as he turned to look at me.

"I'll ask mom and dad if we can" I replied as I watched the boy beamed at the thought of having Salmon for dinner.

I snapped out from my daydream as I saw the sun setting into the horizon. I got up and dust off the dirt off from my pants before heading home.

When I reached my house, I could smell the faith scent of cooked salmon comming from inside the wooden house.

'Oh..... It's today....' I thought in realisation as I entered th house. There I could see my mom taking out a plate of cooked salmon from the furnace before placing it on the dining table along with a side of breads and beetroot soups.

"Welcome back Diamond!" My mom greeted me with a cheerful smile.

But I knew, that smile was fake.

Especially at a day like this....

"Huh? We're having salmon tonight? Why?" The boy asked as he sat at the dining table along with me and dad.

"Well... do you remember what today it is Hayden?" Mom asked as she gave him a knowing smile.

Hayden just stared at her with confusion, until he let out a gasp of surprise when we all pulled out a gift wrapped box from under the table or behind our backs.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAYDEN!"

After having dinner with my parents, I decided to head up to my room. As I entered the room, the first thing I saw was the picture frame sitting on the table lamp beside my bed. I walk towards my bed and sat on the purple blanket before taking the picture frame from the table and held it in my hand.

I felt my purple wolf ears press against my head as I sadly stared at the picture.

It was a picture of me and Hayden when we were young. It was a few years after we were adopted into the family ever since our real mother was found dead at Herobrine's ruins.

We were both laying on the grass as we stare at the blue sky. My hands were held up as if I'm trying to explain something to Hayden as he layed beside me. We were both also smiling in the picture.

Soon I noticed that I was crying because of the wet staines on the glass frame. I placed down the picture on my bed beside me, before pulling my knees up to my chest and wrapping my arms around it.

Before I knew it, I began sobbing as I rest my head against my knee.

"Why did you have to leave me...."
