III - Bluewater Village (P.2)
Dear Lazlo:
It had taken me long enough to write you this letter, but it's never easy to find the right words when you have something important to tell.
Firstly, please believe when I say that it was never my intention to hurt you, and I honestly enjoyed my time in Strangetown and your company.
You always cheered me up, and I'll forever treasure the time we spend together, but, the true is, when you started talking about moving in together, it seemed so impetuous. Even, somehow, forced. Almost like it had become your responsibility to take care of me because of one night together.
I was sincerely confused and, at that moment at least, leaving just seemed like the best solution. I recognize it was a coward decision, though. I should have talked to you, face to face, before leaving town.
But you must understand, it's not just my life anymore. I have a family to care for. Another life that depends on me and my decisions.
I could never rush into the type of committed relationship you seemed to want, and if I ever decide to settle with someone I love, it'll be on my own terms and pace.
My child, --my children, are my priority now, no man will ever change that...
But that brings me to main reason for this letter.
I discovered I was pregnant not long after leaving the desert, and it's your child. It's in your right to know.
Probably, if I have known before, I would have reconsider leaving so suddenly, but I'm not writing to express my regret for doing so, or wish to come back.
I don't.
Jonas is happy here and growing fast,
I have a good job, a responsible nanny helping me,
and I already started getting acquainted with the hood and neighbors,
even making new friends.
I'm making a life here, and a home for Jonas...
... and Lander. Your son.
He seems to be as impulsive as you are, and could barely wait until I came back from work to join us.
But it was good to finally hold him.
As it's good to be able to move more freely now too. Being pregnant can be a marvelous experience, but it can also very limiting.
Even the simplest things like sitting in the floor to play with Jonas,
or teaching him to walk are easier to do now,
and chores are finished much faster as well.
This gives me a lot of more free time to spend with the children. And the weather is so nice here, even now in the middle of fall, it is still very pleasant outside, so I started taking them both out when possible.
I personally love Hunter's Park, but it's at the other side of town. A bit far to make the long walk as often as I'd like to.
Jonas, of course, prefers the toy stores and luckily for him, there are two just a couple of blocks away.
Tyke's Tower is the biggest, and though it is also the most expensive, they always have cheap little toys and sales.
I like taking them to the Inner Child store better, though. It's small, really cute, and they have a really nice area outside with a sandbox for the children.
Of course, you probably don't want to read more about my life here, but I just want you to know that I can provide for Lander and give him a great life here without your, or anyone else's, help.
However, I'd never deny you the right to meet your son if you wish to.
I'm sure we can find a way to make this work for him.
Sincerely
Blossom

Writing this letter was kind of hard to do, even trying to keep it as simple as possible, it feels awkward and out of place, imo :/
Contacting an old lover to tell him you have a child with him, it's awkward enough, but these letters are also meant to tell Blossom's story as it goes, so it needed to include all those other details about her life, her other child, sims she met, etc.
I also wanted to include as much as possible about the children on this update so the next could focus on Blossom's more personal life. Hopefully it will be easier to write and won't take me that long.
For now, have a spoiler ...
... but keep in mind that heart-farting, doesn't necessarily implies that something else happened ;)
CHEERS!
