CHAPTER TEN: Elder Life :')

Short recap! Last chapter, Nate started working in Science Career like his mum. And then, both Max and Hannah grew up. Max finally became a young adult, while Hannah became a child and ready for school life. Earlier, the house had been renovated to accommodate the children. And at the end of the birthday party, a guest, an old best friend of Josh, died.

Josh: Still linger in my mind the first time I met him, it was actually for work purpose. And we grew fond of each other... Errr... I mean, we became good friends!

I still remember that. RIP Jared Frio...

So! What's going on now?

Josh: I think we need to fence the house. Uninvited visitors simply come and jump on our trampoline...... And fall down the trampoline. Misleading falling direction.

Uninvited visitor: "Where am I landing?? Argggh! *falling..."

Uninvited visitor: "Hello? Anyone home? Can I get some ices here? Argh!"

HAHA. Serve them right. What else?

Josh: Well, one day I go upstairs to check out on Max, to see what he's doing. And he's painting, beautifully. And that's when he tells me, he's gotten a job!

Max: "Haven't I told you I became a painter? I just got promoted for painting Hannah's nude picture... of baby version of course...! *crumpled face"

Josh: "That's very good! Keep up the nasty work! HEHE.. "

Let me guess. A painter?

Josh: Yeah!

Since Max has gotten a job, he considers himself financially stable. He starts giving thoughts about what Nate told him on his birthday. "Stop being nerdy."

Max later gives Tami a call. He has no freaking idea why Tami. He just knows that, when he thinks of love, he would straight away think of Tami Moseley. So, he invites her out near the beach.

And she says yes!

Quickly, he takes a bath....

Monster: "Borrow your shower for a while, eh, buddy?"

Whoops! Wrong picture! :p It's a monster, not Max! Weeee~

And off he goes...

Tami: "Hye! Err.. Hye? Max? Max, right? Sorry, you look like a lady from behind, especially that sexy butt part *whispering.. HEHE."

And after several chats, they start holding hands...

Tami: "You sure have such soft pair of hands, Max. Like a girl's...*whispering"

And Max finally confesses his feelings... Sweet!

Max: "Will you be my lover? I don't want Nate to think of me as a nerdy, just because I'm a loner..."

She says yes! And they finally have that girlfriend/boyfriend relationship! Woo-Hoo!

P/S: He invites her home later on, btw. Who knows what he has in mind? ;p

And as for Nate, poor him. He's still single...

Josh: He sure has a tougher and yummier body than either mine, or even Max's, but he never find time to find one for himself.

Nate: "Oh, yeah... Rock my body, right, babeh..."

Ouh! Don't say that, ever again. Sounds disgusting to me. LOL. But heck, look at that bar-day! I am falling more and more in love each day with him. HAHA.

Josh: Wait a minute. I see where this is going. You purposely let him be single! You don't wanna see him with some other Sim because you wanna keep him to yourself!

Hang on, there, Simmy. Stop falsely accusing me. Of course I wanna see him get married, and see what his kids look like, if they inherit his gorgeousness. But do you have any idea how hard it is to control so many Sims at a time? Urgh! When I find the right Sim for him, he will get married.

Josh: Make it faster. I'm not getting any younger. I wanna see how my grandkids look like.

Just pray for the best, okay? HAHA. Btw, here's another screenshot of Nate, fixing the trash compactor. Poor him. He's always the plumber boy in the house. But, I guess it pays him off as he needs Handiness Skills for his career promotion.

Nate: "This trash compactor smells of Hannah's diapers. I wonder how long the butler has been keeping these in?"

On the other side... What's up with Bella? Yeah, she's painting when she suddenly sparkles...

Bella: "Oh, oh... Has someone forgotten of my birthday?"

Bella: "I'm finally an old lady. I don't like this, yet I fake a smile. Sober...."

I feel bad because I never throw her a party. And when she becomes an Elder, I forgot about it as well. But, looking at her dress after she transforms, it feels good. At least, she doesn't have to wear torn dress in her birthday party, should I'd thrown her one. ;p

P/S: She gets changed anyway, later. :)

And.... For birthday gift, I call Josh upstairs for her... And they relax while chit-chatting on the bed...

Josh: "Your hand is still as soft as baby's..." Bella: "Awwww..."

Before he takes it to the next level...

Josh: "And your lips still taste like teenager's..." Bella: "Emmmm~"

And to the next level...

Josh: "And your......." Bella: "Hush!"

And finally to the top level. Weee~ :p

P/S: It's their first woo-hoo as elders. Aren't they sweet?

CHAPTER NINE: Death!

Recap time! Basically, the household held three birthday parties in a day. They were Hannah's, Nate's, and Josh's. They had pretty good times and the family had grown bigger! Hannah is now a toddler, Nate is ready for his young adult life, while Josh should start thinking about retirement, now.

Josh: I'm not retiring until I fulfill my LTW.

Only a few more cases to go and Josh's good for a retirement.

Josh: Yes!

So, for this chapter, we'll be talking about death. But, before...

Josh: Did I die?!

But before we get there, I would...

Josh: Tell me! Is it my death we're gonna be talking about?

I would like to concentrate on other matters, first.

Josh: ...Hello? Talk to me!

Well, since Hannah has grown into a toddler, she'll be needing to learn those 3 basic skills in life.

Josh: It must be mine... Right?

Mostly, Bella would take time to teach but Josh also helps when others are out. And as for Nate, he has gotten a job in the science career like Bella. Well, its been his LTW to be Robot-Creature Cross-Breeder. It's the 9th career level. So, off he starts his working days happily. And since gardening skill is no big matter for him (well he's been helping Bella tending the garden near the house), so he's always a step away from promotion!

Josh: ...

Here's a snapshot of Bella teaching Hannah to talk while a paparazzi snaps their picture. Well, the front door really needs a blind or curtain or something to filter uninvited eyes-trespassing!

Max: "Err.. Hello? You can click that shutter on me, too. I'm a 3-star celebrity. Hello?"

Josh: No doubt... You're not talking to me anymore...

The family will get bigger in no time so Josh thinks it's best to totally renovate the house. Here's the first plan of the house. It's 2 storeys and has that pagoda-like roof. It looks cool but Bella wants a more modern house.

Asian Home

Final touch!

Later, the family is holding another birthday's celebration. It's Max's! And since the house has gotten bigger, it sure accommodates the growing people in the house. Everyone's getting their very own bedroom. And a Butler's hired to keep the house clean and managed.

Josh: This is so sad...

On the ground floor, the library, hot tub, nursery, laundry room, kitchen and dining hall are placed. There are 1 bathroom and a half toilet on the ground floor. On the second floor, the couple's master bedroom is placed, with 2 extra mini rooms of toilet and computer room. Nate's bedroom is on the other side, across the Butler's room. And they share the bathroom between their rooms.

P/S: The Butler's a lady. ;p

Josh: I never get the chance to advise Nate to behave, and now I will never get the chance, ever...

And lastly, on the second floor, there are 2 bedrooms. Max's and Hannah's. Since Hannah's a toddler, she'll be sleeping in the nursery, and that means Max is alone. Really alone on the highest floor. And he's got a bathroom next to his room, too.

Josh: Sure suits his Loner trait. He'll be enjoying the solitude...

Enough talking of the house, let's proceed to Max's birthday. Bella has bought a cake, and placed it on the table. They are waiting for more guests to come while enjoying the HD TV on the wall.

Nate: "Grow up, buddy! Don't be so nerdy. *serious face" Max: "Am I that nerdy?"

And as the guests start filling the dining hall, Max proceeds to blow the candle.

Max: "Maybe I should date you, Tami?"

And boo-yah! Max is a young adult now!

And my bad, I totally forget it's Hannah's birthday, too. Someone puts her down on the floor and a minute later, sparkles!

Hannah: "Me want cake, too..."

And as the night goes by, guests start departing. Nate's outside, jumping on the trampoline when he hears  the Butler screams from the kitchen.

Josh: It's time......

Nate runs inside and...

Josh: He doesn't look like me... Oh, I'm still alive!

And that night, Josh lost his first best friend when he first arrived in Sunset Valley. Remember this picture?

Josh: Jared Frio!

Yeah, its him. R.I.P Jared Frio...
