The two have a complicated relationship with the love between them strained by he not giving his blessing on her writing career, he always expecting her to take over his business, a retail store called Pumpkin Everything. In turn, Amy, fifteen years ago, proverbially ran away from Autumnboro in the constraint she felt by her grandfather, and somewhat associated did not know how to help her best friend at the time Kit Parker losing his way in life following his mother's passing, the two who have lost touch with each other. Upon arriving home, Amy learns that: this accident is not Tom's first, demonstrating that he should be no longer be doing things for himself, either at the store or at home, something his independent self has been fighting tooth and nail; and Kit has not only been long hired as assistant manager at the store - Tom giving him a break when no one else in town would - but is living in Tom's guest house.
