Thank you so much for reading! This was an old draft from a few years ago I ended up completing recently! I hope you enjoy!

There was a knock at my door. I stood there near my table hesitating for a moment before heading over to start to open the door. It was mid evening, not much light still left in the sky. It was curious to have a knock on my door to begin with, I wonder who it could be. I hadn't yet gained large group of friends since moving here.
I pulled the door open to see the Herbalist's Assistant that I was renting my upstairs space from. I peered up to look at him. The Assistant had long curls all puffed out, most likely freshly washed cascading down his back. His work uniform looked nice and new, probably freshly washed as well. He had always seemed nice the few times we had spoken. He had really assisted me learning about this new town when I first arrived. I appreciated him for showing me kindness when I moved in.
The Herbalist's Assistant looked around smiling as soon as I ushered him inside. The loft was rather small and cozy but I called it home. I had the main room then my bedroom and that was about it. I had little furniture to fill the space but I managed. I awkwardly started a pot of tea for my guest.
"So... uhhh what brings you to visit me at this late in the evening? I would expect you would be out celebrating with the rest of your troop of people."
He gently shook his head.
"The wagons couldn't carry us all out near the farmland enough to see the light patterns tonight, I elected to stay in town. I thought I may as well pay you a visit and see how you are doing."
He was a rather nice fellow. He was also quite soft on the eyes. His mane of curls was probably the prettiest part of him, it pulled his whole beauty together. The way he presented himself as well could make you swoon.
