Moonbeam Trail - VII Desiderata Valley (cont.)
Read HERE before continue
With more energy it's easier to focus on the toddlers and their skills better. Especially Molly.
Of course, I have a natural tendency to be more overprotective about Obelia, and seems to be the same with everyone else. Sometimes I even wonder if it's a part of her heritage what makes her so easy to love too, but either way she doesn't lack of attention.
Molly instead, is quieter and shier and can get easily lost among her siblings.
Her birthday came soon after Gaspar's birth and the Goth came to visit.
I knew Jonas was really excited to see Alex again after so long, but I didn't realize how much until I saw them both together.
It didn't even crossed my mind before, but there I realized that Jonas might be seeing Alex as more than just a friend and the feeling seemed to be mutual.
I can only wish they would be responsible and hope Jonas doesn't get hurt. I doubt Alex would ever hurt him intentionally, but he's older and leaving to college. And of course, there's also Molly. Alex and Jonas may not be related but they are still her brothers. Both of them...
I guess, we'll cross that river when it comes, if it happens, but for now I'm grateful that whatever is going on they were discreet, and Molly had a great birthday meeting the other side of her family. It was really nice to see Casandra and Darren again too. They look so happy together.
In general, it's marvelous to see all my children so happy here. It's been a while since I have felt so at home anywhere and everyone seem to feel the same way. The kids are happy, and I've never seen Jonas so active and sociable.
He's very close to me and his younger siblings, but Alex has always been his only friend.
Here instead, he's finally meeting other teens and really enjoys the school and everything else the Valley has to offer.
And I was so confident we were meant to finally settle here, I even let the kids convinced me to get a pet.
The news of the new puppies that one of Cyd's dogs have had, spread all over town very quickly and the kids were dying to see them, so I asked and he invited us all to his house one day after school.
Of course I was quietly dying to see him more than anything else, and should have know what would happen there.
It was a lovely day, though. Cyd welcomed us all warmly and the kids had a blast playing around with the dogs in the big yard, while we chatted on a corner. I didn't notice how the hours went by and evening came.
The kids headed home before it would get dark and I promised to follow them right after with Gaspar, but enthralled as I was, a couple of minuets became 20 and it started getting dark.
By then Gaspar was also hungry, Cyd invited me inside so I could feed him and prepared us something to eat.
One thing lead to another after that, and finally left much later than I should have, but I was happy and had nothing to regret.
I really like Cyd. At first sight he could seem a bit like Gabriel, with similar hair and eyes, but Gabriel was just handsome, nice and --available, but Cyd is captivating, intriguing and certainly dedicated. His house is so bare and simple, but so homy and, after you get to know him better, it's easy to see there's nothing simple about him.
Unfortunately as I brusquely discovered a day or so later, he's also very much --unavailable.
Natasha had warned me though. She had already told me that Cyd and the cat's lady, Tara, had been seeing each other for a while, but it didn't sound official enough and simply refused to listen. True is, a part of me wished he would like me more and then fooled myself into believe that it had been more than just one night stand for him.
I ran to Natasha's house after that. I didn't want the kids to see me crying like teenager with a broken heart. Probably for the first time since I left college. Even after all the different relationships that I've been in, with all their good and bad moments, I never felt like this before. Loosing Mortimer was much more painful undoubtedly, and I was pretty angry at myself after being with Malcolm, but now I feel neither sad nor mad, I feel disregarded.
I'm nothing for him...
After that, I wasn't sure if wanted to stay in Desiderata much longer. Seeing him all the time, with her. I can't, but how was I supposed to ask the kids to move once again? To leave their school and friends again? All because of me?
I am the grown up here! I need to stop doing this to us!
So I considered staying regardless, at least for a while,
but as soon as I started feeling nauseous in the mornings, I knew it was the moment to leave, no matter what.
As a good bye gift Natasha offered to take us a family portrait that turn out very pretty. I'm so glad to have meet her. I'll miss her the most.
We are going to Riverblossom Hills next.
Winter is the hardest there, but at least the kids are looking forward to the snow...
Love
Blossom

This part turned a lot longer than I expected, and certainly took me a lot more than it should to have it ready... but it's finally done! :D Now I can focus on RH and finish the challenge!
(if it feels like a just throw some text and a load a pictures together, it's because I kind of did, though. I've been a been with a lot of RL stuff in my head lately)
A few notes.
- At first the idea was trying to get Blossom with either Gavigan for the genes, or Mole because -John Mole!, but she didn't have good chem with either of them, and for what I could see in game, she was all about Cyd since meeting him. So Cyd was the lucky one...
- Jonas and Alex decided to have a first kiss right there during Molly's bday, so who am I to complain XD Alex is always gay in my games, and I made Jonas bi because he was giving a very undecided vibe at first and thought it could help him to interact with a wider range of people too. I can't say I wasn't wondering about the possibility, though, but guess they decided for me :P
- I remembered someone saying that Molly's hair as toddler looked like Maya had chopped it off, (i think it was madame_ugly?) so decided to make it look like she actually tried to fix it after her younger sister grew up. ^_^
- Don't ask for the name of the puppy because I can't remember it right now, but promise to include it with the next update. lol
- I really loved seeing Lander playing with Cyd's telescope. That was totally autonomous, and so cute... he's still a Curious (though I can't see him as a knowledge sim at all lol)
- Blossom and Natahsa have pretty good chem too. Even caught them flirting once, but didn't want to play that card too much. Blossom needs some friends-friends too, right? :P (she'll still be included on the list of possible pairings for the end, though. It wouldn't be surprising if Blossom ends up sick of men after this ROFL)
And before moving to the next and last town, I leave another poll.
Who would you like to father Blossom's child in Riverblossom Hills?
(for curiosity only, I can't promise the baby will be with the sim with the most votes here, though. She hasn't met them all yet, so not sure how the chem will be. And jic, the Ottomas aren't in RH in this hood)

Thanks so much for reading!! <3
