You'd never really minded being a farmer's daughter. Sure, things could be a bit rougher out in the countryside, but you got to take care of many animals and eat your own, farmgrown crops, which was great.
You also tended to see a few different men around your property. Your family owned a pretty large piece of land and cultuvated several different crops, along with taking care of cows, horses, pigs, goats and chickens. So, it was necessary to hire personnel to keep everything in order.
Recently, your father's dear friend retired, leaving an empty spot to fill in his crew. So, he hired Leon; a young man who'd just moved into town and was searching for work.
That was how the two of you met. Leon was younger than most of the townsmen, and you both got along well. You often crossed paths on the property, doing different things.
The cowboy found you interesting. You were nice, and Leon liked your personality. Not that he'd ever say that, considering that he liked his new job and didn't want to be thrown out by your dad.
Thus, a few months passed with you both being sort of friends.
