My night started as any other night. I built a tiny little room off of the fenced in yard. Don't ask me why, I just felt like it.
The next morning, I went down to the store and ran into Christopher again. My goodness he is so gorgeous!
I think I'm obsessed with him and don't know why. I even asked him for a hug. Can you imagine?? He said yes so maybe he likes me too!
I went down to the bistro, I was going to hang out maybe meet some new people. All of a sudden my phone rang. I answered and this guy asked if I was Penny Halliwell. I said "Yes who are you?" He said "Well you don't know me, but my name is Bluey Blue and I need to talk to you. Where are you at right now?" Confused, I said "At the bistro." He said "Perfect, wait there for me."
I was confused but curious, so I sat down to wait on him. How could he know me when I didn't know him? Finally he shows up, and saw me waiting.
I immediately stood up. He comes over to the table and sits down. He told me to take a seat.
I did. He then pulled out this big book. He started telling me that I have a destiny. He said there were a few things I needed to know. First, I have to get married, have a child and then watch as my husband gets old and dies while I will remain alive forever. The nightmare I had the other night hit me again. "No way!" I said "I can't do that!" He said "Yes you can and you will." I said "Give me one good reason anyone in their right mind would agree to that?!" He simply said "It is your destiny." I said "Whatever, I am a grown woman, you can't force me to do something I don't want to do!"
He simply said "Fine. You don't want to do this, I can't make you. But if you choose not to, the beautiful basement home you have built, the gorgeous garden on the lawn, everything you know
WILL be destroyed and you will disappear into oblivion." I thought about it. Then I remarked "Do I have to love the guy I marry?" He looked at me for a moment then replied "Of course not. His only duty will be to provide the portraits, and sculptures for you and then he also has to provide you with a child." I thought about it a little bit. "Will my child be able to live forever too, or do I have to watch my kid die as well as my husband?" He said "Well, your first born will live forever, just like you. However, if you have more than one child, that child will die." "So all I have to do to live forever is get married and have a kid?" "No, you also have to complete your lifetime wish, complete 6 opportunities, have 6 best friends, buy a building in town as well as a property, get to level 10 of your career, have your young adult, adult and elder portrait done, buy 3 unique rewards, and supermax a skill." "Wait a cotton picking minute what do you mean Elder?? I thought you said I would live forever if I agree to do this!" "You will. But as an elder. You must have your elder birthday
before you eat the meal that will reset your age. It is called Ambrosia, but remember, you
must be an elder before you eat it. Or else everything you do up to that point won't matter and you will doom your family to oblivion." It takes me about 10 minutes to think about this. On one hand, I want to live forever, but thinking about the terrifying nightmare about being an elder is scary. Should I agree to this? On one hand, watching my kids and grandkids and even great great grandkids grow up would be cool, but I would have to sacrifice my youth. I looked at him, he was just sitting there looking at me, waiting for my answer. Then he asked "Are you ok to do this? My boss sent me here to this town to find you. Will you take this challenge?" I asked "Who is your boss and what does he get out of it?" "His name is Metro and the only thing he gets out of it is the satisfaction of watching your family grow and fulfill their destiny." I finally agreed. I mean, being an elder can't be
that bad right? Plus if I don't have to love the guy, it won't hurt me if he dies. I looked at him then and only said one word. "Yes." He smiled, said "Excellent!" He stood up to leave, I guess his work is done. He looked at me one last time and I guess he could see the tears in my eyes cause he held out his arms for a hug.
After he left, I sat there for hours. He also left me the book of requirements and I read them over and over. I couldn't believe this was happening. Was it just this morning all was right in my life? It felt like years already. Then I slowly walked home. I need to get working on the list of things he gave me. Last thing I'm going to say tonight is I know I shocked you all with this. I'm sure no one else has ever heard of this, it's crazy. But, I must get to work now.
Esther's words.
Actually Bluey was wiped out as well, so I just made another blue guy and put him in the town. I know out of 6 nooboos none of them were blue, so I'm hoping for blue ones this time around. I'm not saying the new guy and Penny will do anything, but that's always a possibility. That would guarantee a blue one!
