Day to day life in a weird world

As I walked out I felt the sun's rays hit me, it has been awhile before I really focused on it, to feel the sun's warmth and innocence onto my face and body it was...nice to say the least and since my day barely began I felt like it was a good sign that this nice gesture will not be the last.

While usually I disliked the idea of the sun hitting my face first thing in the morning I'll accept this intrusion, "Just this once" I said in a whisper of content and awe. Although that's not the only calming thing to greet me, along the trip from my house to Applejack's farm I usually like to find solace through the walk to my destination, the forest was always so calm and the sun would like to spread it's warmth to even the coldest places so the end result was the beauty of my path.

The sun's rays would shine out through the tree's leaves leaving strands of sunlight throughout the path, it was almost as if the sunlight and forest mended together to build the beauty of the view that it was, the end result was as if it was from a fairy tale, the forest never having something to really stick out to the road creating hazards but tree's growth was evident, their branches would grow outward and their leaves with the branches creating a sort of arc as if it was a blanket of protection and the only clear sign of it not being completely hole less was the sun's light seeping into the vulnerable patches. To say it was calming and beautiful would be understatement and I would be lying if I always appreciated it for what it was, I used to be worse, much worse.

"I guess that just goes to show how much I've improved" I said to myself while walking through the breathless sight that the world gave me, I guess I just forgot to see the beauty the world gave me.

As much as I'd like to savor the piece of art that the travel was it ended far quicker than I'd like and I still have much ground to cover so I continued onto Ponyville, much like any other day I would wave to any passersbys that gave enough time to smile or wave to me, I've been through the market and streets enough to know how long It'd take to get to Applejack's farm, but I can't help but feel like something's different, something off place and subtle. But I keep moving on regardless, while it's always fun to the abnormalities that Ponyville always gets, including me, I don't exactly have time to spare so I put that feeling aside so I can focus on work for the "now" and work on the "Later" after work.

I soon found my two feet hitting the path that was laid down to direct any new comers that they had reach Applejack's farm. Usually I didn't take a glance over Applejack's farm but I've already looked outside of my normal perspective so why not indulge in a little more of my out of character detailing. Applejack's Orchid had plenty of trees, enough that I personally think could fill this whole town's hunger for days, of course It may be a hyperbole but nonetheless it was quite big, it seemed like it went on for days, I used to wonder how they ever bucked them so quickly that they did, it was so astonishing to me but now? I see it as normal as the Applejack does since I now know the secret to the technique and is now even involved in the progress.

I mean how else was I going to gain bits?...Why am I questioning this again? Maybe due to the fact that I want to know if I can be worth more, to know that if I ever did want to become something more that I'd fill the role perfectly with some weird unrealistic power to be so good at some task that ~~-everyone~~ er, Everypony would be so astounded by my capabilities, that they'd think I was so much more than they originally thought. Alas that is far from the truth, while I may have an edge of sorts on certain areas of work I am, and still just the average person from an average part of the world that just so happened to be tossed around like a rag doll till I stopped, puked, and realized I got transported here. I really wished I got at least some super powers, I mean really? Teleporting to a whole new world! And I still stay the same dull me, so unfair. But I guess it's sorta worth it since I'm here. Just so odd to me, I mean magic, talking horses, and super hero's are real things in this world and here I am in the midst of all this, just a worthle-No I won't go there, I'll just focus on work and distract myself.

"Well howdy' Jack, ya seem to keeping up appearances less and less on time, wanna maybe tell me about it?" The southern accent while used to catch me off guard now had no longer any effect, especially since her statement was true, I have been getting less and less on time but that doesn't mean I'm not trying to, she held a stern look at the end of that statement well at least that's what I expected, I couldn't and didn't wanna check because I suddenly found anything else more interesting than looking at her, scratching my head I replied with a more apologetic tone.

"Heh sorry Applejack, guess I just didn't sleep well last night" Which was also true

"Sugar cube be honest with me, what's going on?" She wore a sincere smile filled with nervousness but genuine want to see me happy, I guess she just seems to have that effect huh? If she wasn't an element of honesty and a colorful horse in a weird world I would be more inclined to ask how her face can direct such an emotion so strongly.

"While I appreciate the concern Applejack I am by no means in the need of the consideration" I ended the statement with a proud smile and stance; my chest puffed out to say I stand well now, only seemed to make her push her face closer in contemplation so I added an extra pinch of "trust me".

"I won't be late next time I promise and I'll try to not be late any other time, really I'm fine" I said with a more shift to sincerity and honesty, something she could see for herself for comfort.

"Well ah guess I'll trust ye for now but If you ain't here by 2 tomorrow ya won't be just getting a stern talking" She said with a more serious tone and made sure to emphasize that I really shouldn't try to test her, I chuckled a little out of nervousness before I talked.

"Well I don't plan to miss out on missing out anymore" A little awkward silence continued due to the no real substance the statement was, "Sooooooooooooooo, to the apples?" I asked with nervousness and questioningly in my voice very well evident, I felt like I was going to be turned into stone if she kept her stare on me for any longer. Only after a small silence did she become less stern and smooth out her face and replied with a simple nod and a noise of confirmation.

"Well uh see you at dinner at 5 o'clock?" I asked to just smooth out any remaining bits of the serious confrontation

"Eeeyup" She responded which I could've sworn was Big Mac instead.

I sighed knowing at least she wasn't mad at me enough to stop me from having dinner with her family after work like usual, sure it was just paranoia of letting her down or thinking I made our friendship worse but I just wanted to reassure myself, friendship was still kind of weird, well at least true friendship anyways and also having one of your best friends as your boss.
