It's late at night Emma and Paul are still discussing. They are trying their best to be logical "Emma, I want what's best for Eva. I can't remember the last time she been this excited let alone happy." Paul lies and looks up at the ceiling. Emma hugs him "I-I want her to be happy even if it's just a smile every now or then. "
"I know honey… I know" Emma stands up "Listen, if this can work out then I'm more than willing to be on board. I just want to plan this carefully, everything even the little parts" Emma says and Paul understands it well. "Let's just plan alright I'll speak to her and us three will make it happen"
Emma walks to Eva's room knocking on the door "Come in!" Eva says. Emma enters Eva's room "Sweetie me and your father have discussed this and we have made our decision" Eva awaits her answer anxiously and hopefull. "We decided that we are fine with you going to Dyuxum but" Emma says "Tommorow we need to plan this all out. As a family" and with that Eva watches as Emma leaves her room closing the door.
Eva is excited for the next morning after thinking of a ton of plans. Emma walks back to their bedroom, and sees Paul still staring at the ceiling. "It's done, I told her we should plan this out tomorrow" Paul smiles after hearing those words.
The next morning Emma, Paul and Eva are at the dinner table discussing. "Listen Eva" Paul says "We need to be more than just prepared. We have to think of everything that could happen" Eva is a bit annoyed but understands
"Alright but let's make it quick as I want to go there as soon as possible." They continue to talk. "So First things first is transportation, we can use the cart dad." Paul agrees "We need money which might be a bit difficult" Eva says
"Don't worry I'll ask Wilson he will definitely give us money. What we also need to consider is knowing the place. We can't have you enter blindly and get scammed by people" Emma agrees with Paul and they continues "I can ask Wilson for our day off to travel there for a little while. He will agree if I buy him drinks"
"That sounds great, I'll talk to Clara and convince her to let Wilson go" Emma says. Their plan is starting to make it possible. "The harvest starts tomorrow so I'll ask her in the afternoon. Let's hope this works"
"Alright now I believe I should at least bring some food with me. Enough for a day or two so that I could save on money." Eva says "If I'm lucky I'll ask around for a job, I'm smart enough to reason with people"
"Well then" Paul says "We have a solid plan already, what's most important is you finding a place to rest. I and Wilson will check for Places to stay and possible jobs" Emma smiles as they agree with this plan

It's the afternoon and Paul and Emma come and visit Wilson and his wife. "Oh Paul it's nice to see you" Wilson says as he approaches them "What is it that you need pal?" Wilson says as he hugs Paul "Emma! It's been a while" Wilson lets go of Paul and shakes Emma's hand
"Wilson I need a favor from you" says Paul "On our day off can you come with me to Dyoxum, it's very important" Paul says andWilson looks at him curious
"Important huh?" Wilson say as Emma walks into his house to meet Clara. "Yes Wilson, and I also need some money from you" Paul says as he bows his head
"Don't be so formal to me Paul, we have been buddies since we were kids" says Wilson "If it's that important then I'll lend you money, I won't charge you" Paul smiles at Wilson gratefully. "Let's go inside" Both start walking inside.
"Clara good afternoon" Emma says as Clara is cleaning up the dinner table. "Oh Emma it's wonderful to see you after weeks. How are you doing" Clara says
"I know it's this is sudden, but I need your permission to let Wilson go with my husband." Clara looks at her confused "It's for Eva she wants to move to Dyoxum and well, we need him. I want him and Paul to go and visit on their day of just for a few hours nothing more"
Clara looks at Emma and hugs her "For Eva you say" Clara looks at Paul who is now sitting on their couch with Wilson "Fine I'll allow it, since Paul will make sure Wilson doesn't do anything stupid. Just be lucky that Paul is the only person can I trust to keep him in check"
"Yeah and we will also be borrowing money from you" Emma says which Clara frowns a bit "I know what you're feeling, I won't blame you. We are here asking to take your husband away on his day off and asking for money as well." Clara sighs
"Fine, I'll let this slide " Clara says "How much do you need to borrow anyways?" Clara asks and Emma is a bit hesitant to say
In the living room Wilson and Paul are discussing the plan. Wilson is on board with this. In the kitchen they hear Clara gasp at the amount of money Emma says they want to borrow. This makes Paul sweat a bit thinking that the plan is falling apart. Wilson just laughs it off and whispers "Don't worry if she doesn't agree I'll give you the money in secret. I can handle my wife even when she is angry"
"Calm down Clara, we promise we will pay it all back. You can trust us, we are responsible" Emma says which calms Clara a bit "I know you will, I trust you completely, but it's a lot of money" Clara says
"We will make sure to pay up, the Harvest is near and i'll make some money." Emma says
It takes a while and finally Clara calms down, they succeeded. Wilson and Clara chat a bit more with them. Paul and Emma say their goodbyes and leave their house. "I guess luck is on our side" says Paul and Emma just hugs him
Back home Eva is waiting anxiously at the front door. She is looking out of the window waiting for her parents to return "Wow Eva, you're more excited than I was when I meet Candy" Ashly says and Eva turns to look at Ashly and smiles at her
"Of course I'm excited, I can hardly believe it" Eva tries to calm down "Alright stay calm, up till now it's been going great, but that doesn't mean it can't change. I need to keep my expectations low as to not be disappointed" as Eva says this she can't help but get more excited.
"They're back!" Eva says as Paul and Emma return. Eva opens the front door and runs to them "Did they agree? Did you guys convince them?"
"Yes we did" Paul says as he hugs Eva "It's going to happen" Eva can't help but hug them both. Paul is proud that his daughter is happier than ever before.
"Listen Eva" Emma says "We have everything ready, but calm down a bit. We still have a few days and even if they go, what will happen if they return and it's not what you expect?"
"Yeah Eva, what if I go and it becomes apparent that it would be impossible" Paul sees that Eva's eyes fade a bit after he said that which hurts his heart a bit "I mean I'll try my best. I just don't want you to be disappointed that's all" Paul says as he can't bear seeing his daughter be sad
"Then I'll participate in the harvest Mom. I'll join you and save money as well" Eva says which Emma thinks is a great idea. "I'll prepare for the harvest. I'll work as hard as I possibly can"
Ashly watches as they hug and smile "Wow look Sophie" Ashly says to her doll "Will I also be able to go to the harvest?" Ashly hugs her doll "No Ashly, you're to young" Eva says "But thanks for wanting to help"
A few days have passed and it's their day off "Well, I'm off with Wilson. We wil be back in the afternoon" Paul says as he and Wilson get on the cart preparing for their departure
"Make sure to write everything you see" says Eva "Don't leave anything out of what you discover and explore as much as possible" Eva yells as Paul and Wilson leave
"Eva let's prepare for the harvest that is tomorrow" Emma says as they walk back inside. Ashly sits in the couch with Sophie as Eva and Emma walk to the kitchen
"Wow Eva sure is acting like a different person right Sophie?" Ashly asks Sophie as she gives her a big hug
