** Four Year Later **
It has been four years since the twins were born and a lot has happened in that time. First of all, I was promoted to “Trainer to the Stars”
The twins are now active toddlers who sure know how to keep Everly and me on our toes.
Dia has a the wild child trait.
She loves to make messes and gets into everything.
Delia is independent and wants to do everything on her own. If you try telling her what to do you are treated to an EPIC temper tantrum.
Everly and I have been teaching them how to say they are sorry as well as please and thank you.
They are very smart little girls and have already mastered several skills.
They are especially close and love to do everything together.
They seem to have their own language and learned to talk by babbling at each other.
They are so “in-sync” with each other, they even go potty at the same time.
The twins keep us so busy Everly and I barely have time to be alone together.
The shower has proven to be the ideal location for some private time.
Draco has started playing soccer. He is really good, who knows maybe he will follow in my footsteps by becoming a professional athlete.
He recently completed the artistic prodigy aspiration.
He started on the social butterfly aspiration by becoming best friends with Dreyer Connelly-Lewis. But there won’t be time for him to complete it before his birthday.
For a change of pace, we had Draco’s birthday party at the bowling ally in Magnolia Promenade.
He added the active trait but rather than pursue athletics, he surprised everyone when he announced he wants to be an angling ace.
I had so much fun bowling, during Draco’s party.
I decided to form a league with Nathaniel Lewis, my cousin Corvus and his husband Jonathan, my nephew Dawson, and son Draco.
Poor Dawson isn’t very good at bowling.
I am improving and just won my first match.
Check out my celebration dance.
Dia seems to be going through a temper tantrum phase.
Everly is so good at being firm with her discipline on what is considered proper behavior.
Lupus aged into an adult. He has all white hair and his father’s blue eyes. Dia loves pretending to bark at him.
The twins love to dance.
They will frequently join me in the gym and will dance while I work out.
I finally completed the bodybuilder aspiration by reaching maximum body potential.
I celebrated by getting Everly’s name tattooed on my bicep.
Sadly, Rocket passed away.
We were all heartbroken by his death.
Especially, Daphis as the two were incredibly close.
Rocket is buried in the Constar Pet Cemetery.
Speaking of cemeteries, we also lost some dear family members. My older sister Cassiopeia “Cassie” and the twins Capella and Camilla recently past away. It is just Carina and I left now. It seems like just yesterday we were all playing together as children.
Their death helped remind me how important it is to celebrate all of life’s moments. Draco recently gave us cause for celebration by becoming a Llamacorn scout.
While Daphnis completed the artistic prodigy aspiration.
Next, she is pursuing the rambunctious scamp aspiration.
We celebrated their accomplishments with a trip to Constar park. Draco headed immediately to the pond to work on his Angling Ace aspiration.
Dia reached level 5 in imagination.
While Delia did the same for movement.
I decided to capture the movement by completing both of the twin’s toddler portraits.
The twins only have their thinking skill left. They have been learning their numbers and letters by playing with their blocks.
Everly and I have also been doing flash cards with them.
Delia maxed her thinking skill just in time for her birthday while Dia made it to level four.
Delia followed in her older sister’s steps by becoming a perfectionist. She has the whiz kid aspiration.
Dia is self-assured and a rambunctious scamp.
A few days after the twins birthday Daphnis completed the rambunctious scamp aspiration.
Daphnis and Delia are working on the whiz kid aspiration by playing chess together.
Everly has also been reading to the kids every afternoon when they get home from school.
Draco has been teaching Rocket tricks. So far he can sit, stay and speak.
Over the summer we made frequent trips to Constar Park.
Draco loves to get together with his friends to play basketball and soccer.
We are frequently joined by other members of the family.
Daphnis is best friends with Corvus’s daughter Dione.
Dia worked on her rambunctious scamp aspiration while playing on the jungle gym.
Daphnis and Delia both went fishing and earned their outdoor badge in scouts.
I realized that even when we are supposed to be out having fun all we ever do is work on building skills and completing aspirations. Therefore, I was thankful to get a call from Delphini inviting us to visit in Sulani. Delphini and Dorado had both recently became young adults.
The purpose of the visit was to attend Delphini’s wedding. She fell in love with a merman by the name of Aalton Anse.
Authors note: Aalton is finish and means wave. Andse is french for cove.
Not only is the couple engaged they are expecting their first child.
Before leaving on the trip we celebrated Daphnis’s birthday.
She is a beautiful teenager with the bookworm trait. She decided to follow in her grandmother’s footsteps by coming an author.
A few days later we traveled to Sulani for the wedding. The ceremony was beautiful.
After the ceremony I gave Delphini a big hug. I had sure missed her and Dorado these last few years.
“The baby is sure kicking,” she said. “Do you want to feel?”
I of course said yes. It was amazing feeling my grandson or granddaughter kicking. I can’t believe I am about to become a grandfather.
We spent several days in Sulani. The girls had fun building sandcastles on the beach.
Draco did tons of fishing.
We all spent hours swimming.
Everly and I took a trip back to the waterfall. We had fun playing in the water.
Before things turned more passionate.
While we were in Sulani, Delphini went into labor. She gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. She decided to give him an E name but rather than one related to space she wanted something more ocean themed. She named him Ennis which is Irish and means from the island.”
After returning home it was right back to work. Dia completed the rambunctious scamp aspiration while swimming in Sulani. She is now pursuing the whiz kid aspiration. Her older sister has been helping out by playing chess.
Delia also completed her aspiration and started on rambunctious scamp.
A few months after returning home from Sulani, Everly started getting sick.
I was shocked, yet thrilled, when she told me she was pregnant. I am not going to lie it will be nice having a baby in the house again.
The other kids all seem to be aging so fast. Draco just celebrated his young adult birthday.
He moved into the first house my grandfather built in Newcrest. It has been vacant since Caliban moved back to San Myshuno.
He changed Diana’s old room into a home gym.
Added a new aquatic coffee table.
And mounted all of the fish he has caught so far.
In the backyard he took out the old garden and put in a Koi Pond instead.
He also got a dog named Nebula. I have been taking Lupus over there in the hopes we will soon have puppies.
Back at home Daphnis became a Llamacorn scout.
Dia completed the whiz kid aspiration.
Delia completed the rambunctious scamp aspiration and is working on becoming an artistic prodigy.
The twins are super excited for the new baby.
I earned another promotion at work and am now a celebrity body building. Only I have no time to celebrate right now.
Because Everly is labor.
We went to the hospital.
Everly gave birth to a beautiful, healthy, baby boy we named Dante. He is named after a crater on the moon.
The twins love their little brother.
Sadly, my sister Carina and her husband Lincoln both passed away. She was the last of my sisters and one of my closest friends. I will miss her greatly.
On a happier note I was recently named Mr. Solar System. It is now time to build my gym and turn over the reigns to the next heir.
My mother tore down the house my grandfather built, the house my sister’s and I grew up in, to build her library. I didn’t want to do that. Instead, I purchased the lot next to Constar Park and built the gym there instead.
You walk into the gym’s main lobby and there is a juice bar to the left and reception desk to the right.
The main level has a weight room with a variety of equipment, including the weight machine I received as a career bonus.
There are several basketball courts.
An indoor lap pool.
And locker rooms.
The main floor also includes my favorite feature – a state of the art rock wall.
Upstairs here are several treadmills, including my career reward.
There is also an area with punching bags.
A yoga studio.
Sauna
And Spa.
In the basement there is a cafeteria.
Ice skating rink.
And roller skating rink.
Outside there is a meditation area.
Swimming pool.
And playground.
By the time the gym was complete we had celebrated several birthdays.
Dante is now a toddler. He has the silly trait and loves to laugh and play with his older sisters.
Daphnis added the creative trait. She is working as a freelance writer doing everything from write articles for websites to ghost writing the newest VoidCritter book.
After my sister Cassie died her son moved back to San Myshuno to be closer to his sister, niece and nephew. Therefore, another one of my grandfather’s houses here in Newcrest is vacant. I am glad she will be staying here in Newcrest.
Dia has the dance machine trait and wants to friends with the world.
Dia is creative and wants to pursue academia by being the first Constar to go to university.
We love going to Newcrest Wellness Center.
Like I mentioned earlier, I love the rock wall.
Everly enjoys the spa.
The girls workout or do yoga.
While Dante plays outside. There really is something at the Newcrest Wellness Center for everyone.
My time as heir is now over. The votes are in and my daughter Delia was named the next heir. We also welcomed a new addition to the family as Lupus fathered three puppies with Nebula. We adopted the only male puppy and named him Dziban which is a constellation meaning Two Jackels.
