	It’s something I’ve started. I should finish the job I began this morning. “I’ll change my plans. We’re finished the job from this morning, right? Let’s finish the repairs before the exams start.” 

“Thank yo'. Let’s hoof it an' look at th' patient in th' art club then.” 

“All right. Oh, and clear the ponies out of the room, will you? I can’t concentrate with ponies watching me.” 

“Of course. Ah won’t let them git in yer way.” Applejack quickly walks to the hallway, and I follow him out of the classroom in a hurry. 

The sun has already set when we leave the school building. The school gates are already closed. It’s seven o’clock and way past curfew. But thanks to Applejack, we’re not in trouble. 

“Yo' he'ped me a lot today. I’ll sartinly make up fo' it, so tell me eff'n yo' need ennythin'.” 

“Yeah, I’ll let you know if something comes up. I don’t think anything will, though.” I didn’t help her to get something in return, so there’s nothing I want from Applejack. 

…Geez, ah guess it is a problem t'be too fine a pony. It’s he'pful t'have yo' aroun', but ah can’t stan' it when other ponies use yo' t'their likin'. He'pin' others is a fine thin', but yo' sh'd be mo'e picky wif who yo' he'p. Yo' jest he'p ennypony who comes t'ax yo'.” 

“Hm? Am I that indiscriminate?” 

“Yessuh. An' thet’s jest a-gonna let heartless idiots use yo' as they wish. Yo'’re a busy stallion, so it sh'd be okay fo' yo' t'decline fum time t'time.” 

“……” I can’t really tell, but it seems like Applejack’s worried about me. I’ve been called helpful since I was in middle school, as I don’t turn down requests for help and don’t ask for anything in return. I guess Applejack thinks that’s dangerous. But I’m doing it because I want to, and it’s not a problem as I decline things that I think are beyond me. 

“It’s nothing for you to worry about, Applejack. I know myself better than anypony. Besides, helping ponies is a good thing. It’s not something a daughter of the owner of a farm should be trying to stop.” 

“But ah reckon yo'’re gwine so far thet it might eventually on overwhelm yo'.” 

“I’ll take your warning. See you tomorrow, then.” 

“…Yessuh, I’ll see yo' t'morry.” Applejack leaves, looking discontented. Applejack’s house, Sweet Apple Acres, is up in the mountains. So naturally, our routes home go in different directions.
