household : Lilith (Pleasant) Broke = adult

Brian Broke = Adult

Kendra Pleasant = teen

Maggie Broke = infant/toddler/ child

When Kendra came home from school to find the nanny she was complete outraged.  How had her parents forgotten Maggie’s birthday?  The teen rushed about making preparations to throw the tiny infant a birthday party.  She got two of her aunts to come, Heart Happiness and Angela Phoenix; along with some of her cousins, Love Happiness, Bobbie Happiness, Jaymie Phoenix and Kitten Lames. Her best friend, Stacey Fancey also came.

Kendra was so tired and hungry when she brought little Maggie to the cake.  She helped her sister blow out the candles but had to put her down right away to get something to eat, the little infant didn’t grow up.  Kendra didn’t know what to do.  She heard the sound of her father’s car pulling up and breathed a sigh of relief.

Brian Broke went straight to his youngest daughter and helped her grow up.   The toddler had her mother’s natural red hair just like her older sister.  Brian mingled with the guest.  He was tired from work but needed to help make Maggie’s party a success.

Lilith didn’t arrive home till the party was almost over.  She’d still been grieving over the loss of her cat, Lemon, that she’d lost track of time.  She apologized to everyone and gave some extra appreciation to Kendra.  Maggie’s party ended as a good time.

Kendra wasn’t sure how much of her mom’s claim of still grieving over Lemon was true.  Her parents always seemed to be distracted.  They were good parents, they took good care of her and Maggie, but it seemed as if they were just going through the motions of life.  Kendra couldn’t help but wonder if her parents loving marriage was just and act.

Lilith had already finished college when she met Brian.  He was only half done his studies.  Lilith hadn’t been serious about Brian at first.  She was still trying to get over Dirk Dreamer.  When her and Dirk had started college they had plans for a future together, until Megan came along.  It had been difficult enough to loss the man she loved but having lost him to her own little sister had made things worse.  It had been Dean Caliente who finally got her to get over Dirk.  Lilith fell deeply in love with Dean, sharing three chemistry with the blonde haired dark eyed man.  Dean was not the marring type.  His ambition in life was to woo-hoo with 20 different Sims.  Lilith was heart broken again. 

“You should meet my brother.” Heart Happiness told her. 

At first Lilith was hesitant.  She knew Heart’s step-father was Dustin Broke.  It was a little odd for Lilith, but realized it was just as odd for Heart. Heart had never dated Dustin when they were all teens.  It had been just the opposite.  Heart and Dustin fought all the time.  When everyone else got to go off to college, Dustin had grown up bad and was left behind.  Heart assured Lilith that Dustin’s marriage to her mother had changed him. Lilith agreed to meet Brian.

Brian had been beginning to think he was going to spend the rest of his life alone when his half sister, Heart introduced him to Lilith.  He didn’t have sparks with her right away, the attraction being a mere one chemistry, but it was more then he felt for any other sim.

They got along well and begun dating.  She dyed his long blonde hair blue to match her hair.

“Now everyone will know we’re in love,” she giggled. 

His step-cousin, Saturday Goth hadn’t approved of his new hair color.  She felt Lilith was being too controlling.  She had tried to get their dorm mates to help her convince him to find someone else. 

“Would you rather he got involved with me?”  Claire Kim had teased.

Despite Saturday’s claims that Lilith was still dating Dean, Brian continued to pursue Lilith.  Nothing had made Brian happier then when Lilith told him she was pregnant by him.  He had offered to leave college to help her raise the baby but Lilith wouldn’t hear of it.  Her mother had left her a decent size house and plenty of money; she could afford to stay home with the baby. 

After Kendra was born, Brian spent as much time over Lilith’s house as he could.  He hated not being there for his daughter.  She was nearly a teen when he finished college.  He moved in with Lilith right away and they were married the next day.  They had a short honey moon at a cabin in the mountains.  Brian felt so in love with his new bride.

Lilith wasn’t quite as happy as her husband.  He’d never loved anyone before her.  She however had been in love a few times and missed the magic of more chemistry.

She went out a lot.  She went to parties or just hung with friends.  She was trying to stay away from Dean, but she kept finding herself hanging out with other romance driven sims.  Justin Kim was forever charming and Steve Fancey always threw great parties if you didn’t mind the police breaking up the fun. 

She was being faithful to Brian but she could feel the distance between them growing.  With the birth of Maggie, Lilith hoped her in Brian would grow closer.  He’d been very supportive when Lemon died.  And she was there for him when his mother Hope passed away.

Brian was a big help with the girls.  now that Maggie was a toddler, it seemed they lived on different schedules. Kendra helped with her baby sister as much as she could.  As fall grew closer to a close, Maggie was ready for another birthday party.

This time Lilith and Brian did it right.  They both used a vacation day to stay home and invited all there relatives.  Only a few of Brian’s uncles couldn’t come, but their wives came.  Maggie grew up well into a child.  Her looks however were a bit odd.  She looked a bit like Kendra only thinner and with a rather oddly shaped mouth.

While the party was in full swing, Kendra pulled her little sister into her room and quickly applied make up to her.  She used some dramatic eye shadows to draw attention away from the girl’s mouth.  She tried lipstick, but it just drew the focus back.

Maggie was puzzled why her sister seemed so anxious to put make up on her.

“I just want to give you a special look for your party,” Kendra lied, “I just don’t want you to miss all the fun.”

With a deep sigh, Kendra decided that eyeliner and eye shadow was the only make up her sister should wear.  It drew attention to the girl’s beautiful eyes and away from her mouth.  She just hoped that as her sister grew up, she would grow into those lips.
