Juno Leopardi Chapter 7

Juno (35), Jade (34)
Their kids: Phillip and Stewart (twins) (8)


Jade and I have been feeling a little bummed out lately. It seems that all we do as a family is work and go to school. Jade and I have decided to splurge a lil bit and go on a mountain vacation.

We planned it and packed our bags. The boys were more than excited about taking this trip.

The food was great. Sure we could have fished or god forbid gone hunting but what for? We had this great little stand and we ate comfortably. Although I do have to admit it was a tad bit cold.

The boys were busy bug collecting and playing on the campground. It was at these moments when Jade and I would get some alone time. We really took advantage and were making love like crazy!

We sat around the campfire and told stories about how we met and how they were born. My sons are getting older because soon they were talking about going to high school. Give me a break they are only 8.

Even though it was cold, Jade convinced me to go tanning. Sure we were getting a little blue but in the end she did get a tan. I just got the chills.

We got back home and I guess our vacation really relaxed us. I found out that I was pregnant. Jade was shocked because we weren't planning on babies right now. I figure its a good time. The boys are 8 and they can help out a little bit.

I helped the boys do some snow men in the front yard. Jade loved the surprise when she got home.

Jade insisted on having a baby shower for me. I could not resist having all this attention on me. I was 7 months and was due in two months time!

My brother Rodrigo came by with his boyfriend Cole. I really like Cole. He and Rodrigo have a beautiful relationship. It seems that almost everyone is dating or has a partner.

I went upstairs and to my surprise Ivan was playing the violin. He said that he was feeling nostalgic about not playing.

I am worried about Ivan. He and Beatrix (his quad sister) always had bad blood. It seems that they put this past them but Ivan is still alone. He says he's dating but his current girl couldn't come. I made him promise to come around more. He promised he would and said he was happy to see me so happy.


My happiness was short lived. It happened in matter of minutes. I woke up Jade and told her that something was wrong. We went to the hospital only to find that our baby was still born. They asked if we wanted to know the sex and I said no. I get up at night with nightmares about it. Jade consoles me but its not enough. I keep wondering what I did wrong. The doctor says im 35 and its difficult to carry a pregnancy.

I had some time off and when I am alone I cry about it. I know I need to focus on my kids. No one really knows how I feel. Jade says if I want we can try again but for now I just want to heal.

Poor Stewart comes home and hugs me. He tells me that he loves me and does not want to see me sad. My baby boy is so caring. I have to get through this for my family.

Author's note~~~~~~~
Juno was all set to give birth the next sim day. I guess her baby shower took a toll on her. I was shocked to get the pop up that said she had suffered a miscarriage. I was tempted to exit without saving but then I wouldn't be true to myself. Sadly enough she is still red.

Rodrigo Leopardi-Chapter 3

Rodrigo (23) Cole Tan (23)
City: Downtown

Narrated by Rodrigo.

By the time I got home from vacation, Cole was ready to start looking for an apartment to live in. I was rethinking the idea about moving to Downtown. I wanted to be closer to my family but at the same time we needed to start our lives. We finally found an apartment that we both loved and we moved in immediately.

It was nice sitting in our kitchen which belonged to us. We were done with the cafeteria food. We also talked and made the decision to pursue our master's degree. It would be hard especially since I am a medical intern.

I had my quad brother and sisters come over. Cole is still amazed that I was born with three other babies sharing my womb space. He is scared if I ever get someone pregnant that I have quads myself. For now I told him to not worry about that.

I love the piano. I have always been surrounded by musical instruments since I was a kid. My mom really stressed for us to play the violin. She never did buy us the piano but the violin made learning to play the piano a breeze.

I am still not as great as Cole.

We are in the Master's program and its really kicking out butt. I don't know how the program director told us that most finish in two years. There is no way. We barely have less than 2 of the required 6 classes needed.

I decided to take a break and begin my painting again. My mom also was a visionary painter. Maybe some of her talents are in me? I hope so. Cole says that I am taking too much on. I disagree.

We both decided to get serious with our Master's degree and decided to pull an all nighter. We finally fell asleep after studying A LOT.

Cole was awakened by our neighbor and he was pissed. He told me that he went over and yelled. So much for being neighborly.

Ivan Leopardi--chapter 3

Ivan (23) Jane (22)

Jane and I have been seeing a lot of each other recently. I like having someone that I can go out with and well I truly like her. We went out to celebrate my promotion to city council. We talked about my future, maybe our future and also about my upcoming trip. All in all it was a great date.

My brother Francisco Otani II came over because he heard I made City Council. He also told me that my quad brother Rodrigo had been trying to reach me to tell me that he is finally graduated from college. I have been so busy at work that I come home and literally head straight to bed.

I headed out to my trip which I turned into a vacation at last moment. Jane was unable to got but I did invite my brother Rodrigo. It was sort of a graduation present. To think that if I would have not been kicked out, I too would be graduating.

When I got there I was so shocked to see my brother. Sure we promised to call often and visit but with me being banned from campus that made it a little hard. I think we both were amazed at how we looked older.

I took in a much needed massage. I swear I need to learn this method because it is so relaxing.

I also caught some sun with my brother. We were talking about all the changes that have occurred the last two years. For one my brother is actually moving in with Cole. I thought for sure he would move here but in actuality they are moving to downtown city.


Call me crazy but I was fascinated by the flame thrower and I wanted to learn. It looked complicated but simple to me.

I didn't learn the dance completely but I did need a little drink afterwards. Rodrigo said I was crazy. It was soon time for us to head back and Rodrigo was missing Cole as much as I was missing Jane. I promised to go to downtown and visit him as soon as I could. We packed up and left back to our lives.

I took Jane out to dinner to discuss my trip. She was happy to see me and tell me all her good news. We went out to this restaurant which is owned by Adam Barillas. I have to admit it was pretty nice. I liked that we were attended to quickly.

We had a fabulous date. We both agreed that we love seeing each other but at the moment are taking things slow. We both are still a little young to just jump into an engagement. I did feel rather high schoolish when I asked her if she wanted to be my girlfriend. She just giggled and said she would.
