Two days later, as Eva continued her endeavors to figure out the intricacies of cultivating her herbs, a young man approached her, standing beside her on the farm.
His voice carried a tone of genuine concern as he uttered, "You look like you could use a lot of help."
Eva turned her attention towards the stranger, studying his face for any hint of familiarity.
She couldn't recall ever seeing him before in the village, which only added to her curiosity
Eva's initial reaction was one of startlement, caught off guard by the sudden presence of a stranger beside her on the farm.
She swiftly rose to her feet, her hands instinctively wiping away the dirt smudged across her face.
Squinting her eyes, she directed a piercing gaze at the young man and demanded, "Who are you, and what are you doing here?"
The stranger, undeterred by her defensive stance, maintained a warm and disarming smile.
