Chapter 25: In memoriam Agnes Mistique 
My family took a trip to China, but it was dull... We actually did it just because to honor Grandma's death... It's been 5 years since she has died. I don't remember her that much... I know she used to sculpt most of the time... more than even my mum... I also remember that she hails from a very rich family... If it wasn't for her, we would be pretty poor... But I do miss her... She has been like... like a unseen presence. She has always been around. Grandpa keeps a picture of her, so I have her in my mind, but not like... walking or anything like that, if you understand...
Anyway, back to China... I spent most of my time playing my guitar... I know I have like 2 electric guitars at home, but I really love this one... Because it's special. Gramps reeled it out of the pond and gave it to me... I don't care if it looks girly, it's mine and it will stay like this!
What about the others? Well, dad was playing chess with the girls most of the time... They were taking turns and while one was playing the other one was studying logic in some other way...
*Cough*Geeks*Cough* 
Gramps and mum spent most of their time in the city... I think granddad found all the books he could and tried to learn how to catch chinese fish and cook chinese food (or read the new 'rainbow pony' book... not that I would... know... anything about... those (Spoiler alert! Pete the Panda stole the charm of friendship!)... As for mum... I have no ideas, but I think she did some shopping... On the last day of our trip, we had a memorial for Grandma...
Pegasus: "You know, Aphrodite, your mother always wanted to go to China... but I never took her here... We went to Egypt, because I was too selfish... I wanted to go but then Apollo was born and we couldn't just go alone..."
Aphrodite: "Hush up, dad! Don't make this even harder on yourself! There's nothing wrong!"
Pegasus: "I guess you are right..."
Aphrodite: "Besides, she is here with us... in here" *Taps Pegasus' chest*
Pegasus: *tear* "Thank you, Aphrodite... I really needed that.
Psyche: "Daddy, what was grammy like?"
Phoebe: "Was she a nice lady?"
Leo: "She was really friendly... She didn't like spending much time in public, so she was at home most of the time... We really got along well... To be honest, if there wasn't for her, I just might not be your father today..."
Phoebe: "You mean... the stork would pick somebody else?"
Psyche: "Come ON Phoebe, everybody knows that storks don't bring babies!"
Phoebe: "Ya-haa!"
Psyche: "Naa-aah!"
Phoebe: "Well where DO babies come from then?"
Psyche: "Okay, here it is - Every halloween, when Zombie llamas underground count the dead corpses that have been buried, that much babies are brought to earth on the death day of a single corpus... it is said that the baby also has THE SAME traits as the dead sim... plus, come closer... closer... I don't want anybody to hear this... BOO!"
Phoebe: "Waaah!" *Cry*
Leo: "Stop it, both of you! We are here to honor your grandma!
I know... My sisters are weird... So after that... rather awkward scene, mum finally lit the fireworks
We all thought about Agnes that night...
Agnes... All those years have passed, but you still remain with me... And... I still love you... Agnes... I still remember the day I met you... I had nothing and you gave me purpose to live... You gave me a chance in this world... 
A hundred days had made me older
since the last time that I've saw your pretty face
A thousand lights had made me colder and I don’t think I can look at this the same
But all the miles had separate
They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face
I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight it’s only you and me
The miles just keep rollin
as the people either way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
but I hope that it gets better as we go
I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me
Everything I know,
and anywhere I go
it gets hard but it won’t take away my love
And when the last one falls,
when it’s all said and done
it get hard but it won’t take away my love
I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me *Tear*
Dad later took the girls home... He didn't want them to see all the sadness... They probably wouldn't understand it, anyway....
Aphrodite: "I can't belive that mum is gone... With all busyness with the girls, I've never actually had the chance to say goodbye to her... To really look into the sky and think about her for real..."
Pegasus: "You know, honey, hard times come and go... You shouldn't look at death as something bad... You should thank yourself and the spirit of the person that will live forever for all the good times you spent together..."
Aphrodite: "But... Am I a bad person because I'm only doing this now?"
Pegasus: "Of course you aren't... things happen... Life tangles itself in most unusual ways and situations... You had children, your life was full... It's nothing to be ashamed of... She would understand..."
Aphrodite: "Thank you... father." *Tear*
*I ran in here*
Apollo: "What's wrong mum? Bad memories?"
Nod. Apollo: "To tell you the truth, I...
sniff I'm down too... I'm sad that I didn't get the chance to meet grandma and I... *voice starts shivering* I miss her sso.. much..."
*turns away, tears*
WAIT A SECOND! I... I didn't cry! I just... had something in my eye... both of them... plus the incense that was lit there was so strong, it just made me tear up... Okay... I'll finish... 
Pegasus: "Stop, both of you, just... just stop it, OKAY? You don't have anything to be sad about. Death is a part of life... Leo will die some day... and so will the girls. Only few can live forever, and... and that wasn't your mother..."
Aphrodite: "What do you mean?"
Pegasus: "I thought you knew... I thought I will just be explaining this to Apollo..."
Apollo: "Explaining what?"
Pegasus: "The gift.... of immortality.
Apollo and Aphrodite: "Whaa?"
Pegasus:
A Sim is a social and ambitious being... Every single one of us has always wanted something. I - Dr. Pegasus Mistique - Founder of the Mistique Dynasty here by encourage you to go after all those things and you - one day - will become an Immortal. I know it may be a tough road, some of you may give up in the middle, but Don't do it! I belive in each one of you... If you are reading this right now, you are either just a meer child, so full of life and wants to know what you have to do with your life, or you are already an Elder, like myself at the moment, and are just passing by, to see if you can eat Ambrosia already. So - here we go: To eat ambrosia, you must accomplish:
- your Life Time Wish - Something you always wanted - Sims, who can't follow their goals, do not deserve the gift of Immortality...
- Max a Career - Reach the very top of your career track - Sims, who settle for Mediocrity can not be Immortal...
- Supermax a skill - Be the master of a skill - only Sims who are above others in a certain way will become Immortals...
- Buy a Property and a lot and max it to level 3 - Real Estate is an important thing as it - during time - you will become the ultimate master of Sunset Valley...
- 3 lifetime rewards and 6 Opps, that are unique to you and only you... something to differ you and to get your name around...
- Have 6 best friends... Being social is important in the life of a Sim - you have to understand other people to get Immortality...
And don't dare to cheat - If you do, Grim will make a sudden appearance!
Pegasus: "And here are your first death flowers...."
Apollo: "Wait.. I don't get it.. why doe..."
Pegasus: "Look it up! Site 2!"
But all the miles had separate
They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face...PS: I set my differences aside with dad here... I think it wasn't appropriate due to the occasion... I still don't know what to think... He did buy the motor-bike but-uh... well, check out what happens the next time!
