Wow, Reka died :'(
I always have a hard time "allowing" my sims to die... hardly ever happens... maybe that's why I haven't started a new dynasty yet. Having a young doll sim die seems even worse...
Cool story btw!

Despite the way that the story was going.  I never intended for Reka to die.  I was basically waiting for Prim to die so they could "defy" orders.  Well that was the original plan.  Thanks to the Grims never doing what I say, there is now another one. 

Thank you so much for reading.  I promise you guys I haven't forgotten to update.  It's just that with the new EP out I've turned into a Simmer with ADD.  "Ooh Shiney." -runs after it-

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."

LOL! The rent was rather impressive and your timing of the picture is priceless. :)
I wonder if ghosts can suffer from a broken heart.
At first I thought that you meant Anita had maxed painting. Then, I realised it could be no other than Aker. Well done him!
As for having 'one of those feelings'... I cross my fingers for Prim.

Actually, it was Anita who maxed her painting.  Aker had maxed and supermaxed painting before he was out of high school.

Another dizzy moment! What's up with me? I guess, I was overwhelmed: it seems like she only just got there. Did she come with a lot of skill points? Whatever the case, such talent makes her a welcome addition to any household. Well done, Anita! :)

I hoped the Grims would defy the orders and let Reka stay, but it makes more sense the way it turned out. I sure none of them, but especially Artie, would want to risk failing again. When Reka pointed the finger at Rica, that was the last straw. As a Sim, you don't mess with your Watcher. Or whatever. Anyway, I'm warming to Anita - she certainly makes things interesting.

Rica: I finally decided to by The Watering Hole so they boys could play in public.  Their first gig was two days later.
Here's Cake & Vanity's first gig.


Rica: "What do you think you're doing?"
Angus: "Check out this sweet move!"
Artie: "Check out this sweet move!"
Rica: "You two are going to hurt yourselves.  Back on the floor the both of you."


I have to admit.  I've never tried really hard but this is the first time I've ever seen the painting that the Large Painting uses for an icon.


Anita: "You..." -yanks him close- "Get over here."
Aker: "Whoa! Hey no manhandling me."


Rica: "Yeah I didn't think the complaining would last for long."


Aker: "Anita.. Rica just made me realize something.  I want to know if you'll manhandle me for the rest of your life?"
Anita: "Really?!"
Aker: "Yes really."
Rica: "That was.. a very special proposal."


Local Paparazzi: "I hear that the Grims are expecting a nooboo soon.  Do you care to comment?"
Amon: "You paparazzi are all the same!  Why can't you roaches go sit outside someone else's gate?"
Paparazzi: "Can I take that as a yes then?"
Amon: "That's it.  You're going down." -tackles-
Rica: The above was completely autonomous.  No idea what really happened but it was awesome.


At my nephew's request, Aker has become a magician.  As soon as he was hired he decided to try for tips at the coffeehouse.
Rica: "The uniform has to go."
Aker: "Shh. performing.  I want to get this right."


Rica: -sneak dresser attack!-
Aker: "Ahh!"
Rica: "Much better."
Aker: "Ooo pretty.  Thanks!"


Anita: "Maybe we should go ahead and have the wedding?" -pops wish to get married-
Aker: "Is that what you want ?" -pops wish to get married-
Anita: "Yeah I think it is.  How much time does Rica need to make it happen?"
Rica: "Umm. Aker you call the guests, Anita you get to the vanity and umm.. I'll get the cake.  We should be good."


I knew this one was going to be the last wedding so I made it special.  I actually really like how it turned out.


Rica: "Whatcha thinking buddy?"
Aker: "About my last wedding."
Rica: "What about it?"
Aker: "The last one was interrupted but even before that I never questioned that she and I would get married.  Part of me wonders if I didn't question it because that was what she always talked about.  The future us.  Standing here right now.  I've spent a lot of time with Anita.  I know why she's here but I also know that I want her here.  I can't help but feel that this is right.  This is what I'm supposed to be doing.  And I can't help but wonder what they'll do to spoil it."
Rica: "You let me worry about them.  You enjoy your wedding day."
Aker: "Oh I will."


Rica: "Cue the music."
-music plays, guests sit down-
Rica: "Cue the bride."
Anita: - steps out of the tent in her new wedding dress.-
Aker: -makes approving noises.-




I present the absolute last (I promise) Grim & Wife!


Ares: "Son.  you gotta pull yourself together."
Angus: -sniffs- "I know.  It's just.  I can't believe we've come so far."
Ares: "Still have more to go."
Rica: "Man.. I forgot to move the painting easels."


A little late to the party is better than not showing up at all.   This is Anita's Dad - Tony.


And here comes her mom too, Catriona.


Tony Smith: "Sorry honey that we're late.  Got lost."
Anita: "It's ok Dad.  At least you're here for cake, well if Aker ever cuts it."
Aker: "I'm doing it I'm doing it."
Angus: "You didn't even remember to turn on the chocolate fountain."
Aker: "Hey.  Leave me alone it's my wedding day!"


Chester: "Oh will you look at that."
Rica: "Way to break up the party there Chester."
Chester: "Did someone drop a piece of cake for me to eat ?"
Rica: "Nope doesn't look like it."
Chester: "Blast.  Old and still no cake."
Rica: "Aww."


One of my favorite paintings ever and it's evil counterpart.


And I leave you with this picture.  A picture I couldn't put words to but I thought was hilarious anyway.  He's just so shocked to get a baby toy.

What a beautiful wedding I loved the way the Grim men were so emotional about the whole thing.They are all just a big bunch of softies really.
Anita is beautiful I can't wait to see her and Akers little girl.

Anita's CAS pictures are just stunning. No wonder, you fell for her.
Trust Chester to put his own stamp on this wedding... like he did with the last one, but not to the same degree, hehe.
Amazing, how Aker holds up that peg box. Are we going for logic?
Great update! :)
