    Summary

    Haley never meant for the farmer to matter.

    Stardew Valley was supposed to be safe in its stillness. Predictable, quiet, wrapped in routines she’d long since memorized. She knew the people, the seasons, the hollow space her life had settled into.

    But then came Hunter.

    Not loud like a storm, not wild like fire. Just steady. Just there. Like morning light through a half-open window; soft, persistent, impossible to ignore.

    No one teaches a heart how to bloom. It just does. Slowly. Quietly. Sometimes in the direction you least expect.

    And before Haley can name what’s changing, she’s already turning toward the warmth. Already reaching for it.
