You know I'm still shocked at how many of you liked Reka. For some reason she annoyed me. Maybe it was because she was so pretty. I really like Miss Anita though. She's a firecracker.
Anita: "So what's a nice looking magician like you doing hanging out on a beach like this?" -flutters eyelashes-
Aker: "Huh? You just asked me."
Anita: "Oh never mind. C'mere I want to tell you something..."
Anita: -pulls him closer and plants one on his lips- "Feel anything?"
Aker: -a little dazed and wobbly- "What was that for?"
Anita: "I know your wife just died and you kind of loved her and all but the truth is I was invited into the house in the hopes that I could help your family with it's generational problem."
Aker: "As in help bring in the next generation."
Anita: "Well yeah."
Aker: "I barely know you."
Anita: "We're here. Why not get to know me?"
Many many hours later...
Aker: "You're something special you know that?"
Anita: "Not really but it's nice of you to say."
Aker: "No I mean it. You want to be a little bit more serious and maybe take the first step."
Anita: "What about Reka? She was a total harpy to me at your birthday but I never asked to be in that position either."
Aker: "Reka has moved on to a place where we can't be together. She betrayed me in a way and she betrayed my family. You've been nothing but loyal to yours and if being my baby mama frees your family of debt than I'm ok with that. But only if you wear that little bow number to our tent later."
Anita: -snickers- "I think I can do that."
Aker: "Let's go home then and see where this goes shall we?"
Anita: "Of course. You first."
Rica: "See it was just that easy."
Anita: -excited squeels- "I can't believe it. "
Rica: "I can't believe we hadn't picked up the rent in so long."
Anita: "Aker. Are you coming to dinner?"
Aker: "yeah one second."
Anita: "What are you doing?"
Aker: "Nothing."
Anita: "You're totally thinking of holding her down and finding out if that is real candy aren't you?"
Aker: "I think I can do it."
Anita: "You know when you said you wanted to go to the gym for our sixth date, I have to admit I was a little worried."
Aker: "You have the prettiest blue eyes. I mean. I just thought the atmosphere while odd would be good to just spend some time together."
Anita: "Well we're definitely not going to be bothered."
Aker: "Not until school lets out. The ballet class is held here."
Anita: "Oh. Nice move."
Aker: "Why thank you."
Aker: "Reka! Oh honey." -sniffle-
Reka: "Aker. Where've you been? "
Aker: "I was out. Is this your first visit?"
Reka: "Yes. I miss you."
Aker: "I miss you too."
Reka: "Wait.. is that the redheaded gift from our birthday?"
Aker: "Honey let me explain."
Reka: "No you listen to me, you llama-headed twit."
Aker: "Honey?"
Reka: "Don't honey me, buster. You had me killed!"
Aker: "No you caught yourself on fire and didn't put yourself out in time."
Reka: "You let me die!"
Rica: "No he didn't. Stop yelling at him. He's missed you."
Reka: "Oh I can tell by the way he came home with that floosie."
Aker: "Now you wait a minute."
Aker: "No. That's it. I don't love you anymore! I'm done with your harpy tongue and your accusations. I'm done with the lie that you let me live."
Reka: "But Aker."
Aker: "No! If you had loved me, you would have told me everything from the beginning. You wouldn't be pointing your finger at me and telling our watcher that we were going to pay. That's not what someone does when they love you. That's what the enemy does when they've been found out. Goodbye!"
Reka: "No.. wait."
Aker: "I said goodbye now go!"
Rica: "Sweetie.. Shh. Calm down before you explode."
Reka: -fades away into her tombstone-
Prim: -chuckles- "I'm not sure what to think of all that yelling over there."
Amon: "Should I go check on them?"
Prim: "He's an adult. He doesn't need his hand held plus he still needs to really work through what Reka was trying to do to us and I think it's finally hit him."
Amon: "I should get up and go check on him."
Prim: "You sure you need to get up? I was thinking of taking a moonlit stroll."
Amon: "Hrm. Aging wife or emotion son who I'll live with for eternity.. So hard."
Prim: -punches his arm- "I'm not aging. I'm ripening to perfection."
Amon: "You were already perfect to me."
Rica: "Ugh you two. That's so unsanitary. Go to bed already!"
Rica: "You know with all that dating you've been doing I'm surprised you found the time to max your painting."
Anita: "Oh come on."
Aker: "Just a little fun."
Rica: "Blah alright. I just think we need to start getting some of these unfinished paintings done before something happens.
Aker: "I don't think anything will happen, Rica."
Rica: "Uh huh. I've got one of those feelings."
Artie & Aker: "Could be gas."
Anita: -scoffs- "Men."
