Chapter 1: A playdate with you

*12 years ago-

Applejack's pov

I was just minding my own business at the table, playing my toys while my big brother helped Granny around the house.

Even though I want to help my family around the farm, they dont allow it because Im just 7 years old, I think its for safety reasons but Im too stubborn to listen.

I was kinda lonely to be honest, since my brother and granny is always busy, my little sister Applebloom is still young to talk, and my parents aren't home yet.

Dad gave me his favorite hat before he left us with Granny last month, I wonder why aren't they home yet? Whenever I ask Granny about it she would always cry, making me feel guilty for it.

Suddenly, I heard the phone rang in the kitchen. Granny Smith quickly ran inside and answered the phone in a hurry. She looks worried for some reason.."

"Yes, hello? Is this the doctor?" Granny asked.

Moments later, Granny sighed in disappointment before looking at me.

"Its for you Applejack.." She smiled but her eyes were still tearing up.

"Who is it Granny?"

"Its your friend, Rarity."

A smile quickly formed in my face as soon I heard my friend's name. I then immediately ran towards Granny and grabbed the telephone in her hand.

"Hello? Rarity?"

"Heya Applejack! How are you darling?"

"Im fine Rare, how bout ya?"

"Doing great as well Darling, listen wanna come over at my house? There's some games I wanna play with you."

"S-sure but.. Ya wont trick me on playing dress up again?"

"P-please! Just one game, pwease?" She begged with a cute voice.

"I can never say no to ya, Rare."

"Its because you like me!"

"I- already told you only as a friend! Anyways, ya feel so far away whenever you call me."

"Were only a few blocks from each other Aj, so~ wanna come?"

"Heck yeah! Its pretty boring over here anyways."

"Great! I'll ask my mom to prepare some tea for us!"

"Okay Rare, see ya later sugarcube." I lastly replied before ending our call.

I dont know why I feel so nervous whenever my best friends calls me, its been botherin' me for a while now but I always try my best to ignore it.

Besides Rarity is only my friend, even though she's too girly, adorable, stubborn, we always get together fine. Of course I cant deny her invitation, she's been mah best friend since kinder garden so we always had playdates in the weekends.. But I dont quite enjoy it as much as her.

I happily skipped to my big brother who was currently carrying some broken wood into the barn, if Im gonna be honest, Big Mac looks like he's already 20+ even though he's still 14 years old!

"Heya big mac!"

"Howdy sis, want to help around the farm?" He asked with a warm smile.

"I want to but Granny said Im too young!"

"Well she's right though, you might hurt yourself, Aj."

"I can be careful if ya'll just give me a chance! But not today, can I ask ya a favor big brother?"
