Episode 2: Hello! I Love You! No, I'm Sorry...

I woke up in the 2nd day feeling the early rays in my face. I hope my 2nd day here in Sunset Valley would be exciting.

I decided to do my morning chores and watered my baby plants, for now. I hope they grow up already and they may give me income to build a house. This garden would also save me money and keeps my lifestyle healthy, eating and selling fruits & vegetables. The nuns taught me how to take care plants since I was a little, I'm very thankful to the nuns at the orphanage for this one. These would keep me alive until I could get a raise.

Then reading the newspaper for some news and gossips...

Then the carpool came! It's my first day and I'm feeling nervous at the same time excited to meet new people and experience this job. I hope I will never regret this.

As I entered the carpool, the driver looked at me and smirked. Then I remembered that he is the guy that drove me her in lot. Oh! I want to strangle this guy.!

First day of work was just boring. They had just interviewed me about the tests and research that will be done and discussions of the ethical matters about Science. After work, I decided to call Morgana to hang out and have some fun.

We met Le Petit Pool, I think that's the name of the pool. This is the place where I get my free bathroom.

Morgana is wearing her sexy pink bikini. I feel my cheeks flustered. She is so sexy and beautiful. I can't keep my eyes off her sexy body. I felt like I was drooling over her goddess body.

"Hi! Cute life buoy," as she teased me.

"I can swim, I'll show you" I pulled her hand as we go underwater. I win and she splashed water on my face as we enjoy swimming in the pool.

We got tired of swimming and playing around, we decided to relax.

I couldn't stop myself anymore and decided to tell her what I feel, what I really feel...

"I had fun today, Morgana. I wish I can have more days like this," I looked deeply her eyes as I say these words.

She suddenly shifted awkwardly and become busy adjusting her sunglasses.

I become quiet after that. I get it, she knows but she pretends not understand what I was trying to say. I felt so stupid and sad.

After that awkward moment and feel the hunger in our empty stomachs. We went to the Bistro to have dinner. The dinner is so quiet and I decided to break the ice.

"Morgana, I really like you. I'm sorry if this would make us awkward to each other but I can't stop feeling what I feel for you. You're the most wonderful person that I met here in Sunset Valley. I know that you are married and I do no harm to that relationship, I just want to let you know what I feel for you. How special you are to me. I just want you to know that I think I'm in love with you.

I could not believe my ears what Morgana replied to what I've told her.

"I know, Ibrahim. I feel the same way. I just hope I met you before I married Thornton. If I could just have the courage to leave him, but I don't. I still love him. I do, right there in the bottom of my heart.

My heart fluttered but in the same way broken.

"Too blunt, but greatly appreciated." I said to her, amazed to what she said.

"You love someone more than me. Who would always be there for you and hold your hand. But I would still be your friend. My special friend, but I suggest we should not see each other for the meantime. Let out the steam first, maybe, after that we could be great friends." she said to me. My heart now was broken into bits.

I hugged her tightly and let her feel what I feel for her. "Thank You" I murmured.

Then next few days without talking or seeing Morgana has been the worst day of my life and I felt lunatic talking to my Apple Tree I named Morgana. I miss her so much.

Then the next few days become weeks. I got a call from one the people in Sunset Valley and he said he heard about my mini garden and he wants to order fresh vegetables.

I came to meet the guy. He's named is Alexander Clavell, Xander for short. He's actually a good guy and we hang out and met some girls at the park. Well he's a womanizer and he taught me some of his moves and he's a great help to me because in a way I'n not thinking about Morgana anymore, just a little.

But all will changed after the call I received while relaxing in the library.

"Ibrahim.." the voice on the other line said.

It was Morgana and she is asking if we could see each other at the beach. I reluctantly accept, but it's been several months already. Maybe it's time to let her in again, as a friend.

And I saw her frail-looking, she looks like she haven't sleep for awhile.

"What happened?" I asked.

Tears fell on her eyes.

She told me that Thornton and her boss are seeing each other, romantically involved. She caught him cheating and threatened to leave him but Thornton just laugh at her. She cried and cried and I just pat her shoulders to comfort her.

"Why don't you just leave him and be with me?" I suddenly blurted.

She look at me sympathetically. I knew the answer and I just hug her. She needs a friend and I better show it rather that show my other feeling for her.

After that talk, I accompanied Morgana to her house and tucked her in their bed. I left a note that I already left.

I was almost late at my date with Tori and I met her through Xander. Well after the dinner date at Hogan's, Tori told me that she has a relationship but she had fun with me. She's through playing and she wants to be serious with her boyfriend. I just laughed and pat her on the shoulder. I'm used to date these girls of Xander.

I called Xander to meet me in the pool to hang out. After an hour he is still not showing up and I started to get annoyed because he's phone can't be contact and I left him a hundred messages already but none of them is not answered. I decided to go home but a tapped on my back stopped me before I could left the Le Petit.

A girl that look like the same age with me approached me.

"She's pretty girl." I thought.


She's Bebe Hart and the next-door neighbor of Xander. She was going to the pool when Xander called her and tell me that she can't come because he has been doing the chores that he's father had told him to do.

"Well I think he punished him again," she said with those beautiful lips.

"Well you could hang-out with me?" I asked her. "Please say yes.."


"Sure," she smiled.

The more I talked to her, the more I like her. We spent so many times hanging out in the pool but now to take a dip but to chat. I get to know her better and we have something in common. We are book worms and promised each other the next time we hang out will be at the library.

"You like her?" Xander will asked but with a smirked in his smile.

"Yes, she's a good friend than you." I answered laughing. He playfully punch in the ribs.

I'm starting to like her everyday. More and more.. But I still kept on thinking about Morgana..

I'm so confused...

Episode 1: Meet Ibrahim Hollows

"Okay you're here 15 Summer Hill Court, right kid?" The taxi driver stopped the cab and pointed to a mass lot with nothing there.


I peered into the window of the cab and all I can see  is vast lot.


"Are you sure Mister? Is this really 15 Summer Hill Court?" I asked again, just to make sure.


"I ain't telling you twice, kid. This is it," the driver answered him annoyingly.

Still in my confused state, I paid the driver and stepped out of the cab. I can see the driver shaking his head. He thinks I'm the new, crazy dude.


I looked at the paper that was given to me for this lot and read the contents of it. It was name after me, "Ibrahim Hollows" I sighed. This was really it. I was hoping that it was a house. Dead parents sure can be nasty at times.


So this is my new place. I let my eyes roam around. My neighbors are rich, I can see in their houses.


I shake my head in disbelief. I have to really adjust myself in this town.

This is my own place, the only thing left by my parents. I felt lonely but at the same time I'm happy.


My name is Ibrahim Hollows. I came from Twinbrook Orphanage. I lived for almost 18 years of my existence with others like me, no family, either by dead parents or by selfish parents, it's just either of the two. Me? My parents died in a car accident and I was the only one alive. They say it's a miracle, I say it's a curse. The nuns searched for my relatives but they only found one and he was dying of old age. He didn't want to do anything with me. So I stayed with the orphanage and was raised by the nuns there.


Well, enough of those sad stories. I have to moved on and as one of the letters that was found by the nuns. My father's dream is to make the "Hollows" name known to the Sim World. So I want my dream and my parents's dream to come true.


"I can feel that this lot was bought to start your dreams dad, with me and mom. It may never happen to us, but I will make that dream came true." I thought sadly.


"HELLO SUNSET VALLEY!!!!"I shouted excitedly.


                               **************************************************

With nothing to do in my place, that's obvious because there was nothing there but Bermuda grass,I decided to visit Sunset Valley Park while thinking what to do with my big place.


In the park, I met Jocasta Bachelor, the "chatter box". I gave he that name because nothing can stop her mouth from talking about everything. I glanced at my clock and politely interrupt her talking, I told her a life that I have to do something. Even when saying our goodbyes, I wasted 15 minutes of my sim time.

I rolled my eyes when she walked away. I made sure she'w gone before I started to meet other people. Then a beautiful long-haired girl came, stepped at the steps of the park smiling.


My heart suddenly fluttered, I don't know why. There's a nagging voice inside of me that keeps saying to say hi to her.


I gather all my courage and walked towards her. 


"Hey!" I said to her nervously.


She looked at me and responded," A new face in town? I'm Morgana Wolff, and you are?"


"Ibrahim Hollows" it was all I could reply. 

The more we talked, the more I liked here. We shared a common trait, we both are family-oriented. We dream of having many kids of our own. I just want to say to her that maybe I can make a baby with you.


So I took up all my courage and asked her if she is single. She raised her right hand and on her ring finger there is a gold ring plated with diamonds.


For a moment my dream of having a family with her were shattered. I tried to regain my composure and just smiled at her.


"I'm married to Thornton Wolff" she said coldly.


I noticed the icy tone when he mentioned her husband. I wanted to asked her if there is any problem with her marriage, but that was asking for too much. So I just told her that I'm going somewhere and she just gave me her number.

"Nice talking to you Ibrahim. Just gave me a ring if you want to hang out" she told me before she left.


I felt sad when she walked away. I really liked her but she is still with someone. I want to make a family not break one. 

I decided to go to the Sunset Valley Library to check out their books. I'm a bookworm and love reading stories and I want to make one. I just want to relax for a while and not think of Morgana, I can't stop thinking about her. It's just a waste a beauty if ever her husband is not making her happy.

I decided to pick up a books entitled, "How To Spin The Plates?". Then a guy looked at me in a weird way. I did not move and feel him what he would do. He was staring for 10 minutes without moving and walked away. What a weird man!

I finished reading the book and I just learn that in order to spin the plates I have to maintain my balance. Then I decided to find a work that could pay my monthly bills, with only 1800§ left in my money, I need a  job to work on the house and pay my monthly dues. I found a work for being a test subject. It's dangerous to the body but I think my body can take it, it's the only work I can do. I just it's safe.


As I turned off the computer I noticed a cute blondie with a flower on her ear. I had to forget Morgana and find a way to meet a girl that could be with me forever. I decided to meet her.

 Her name is Zelda Mae, she works in the theatre. She's not really what I expected and she just don't get my jokes so our conversation become boring. I decided to end the conversation before I she really gets annoyed!

I stifled a laughter! She gets annoyed because I keep making a joke in a book that she is reading about coffee monster! Well at least she is a cute girl.

I decided to master the charisma skill because I want to impress the girls people in town. This would be one of my weapon for the days ahead especially in my career.

When I finished the charisma skills course the sun was almost down, but I want to practice what I learn. I saw a man in the front of the city hall. I decided to use what I learn and give him a charming introduction.

We got on the right track! He's a good man, Beau Andrews. We both have the same thing, we both eat the food the same way. He decided to say goodbye though because he had to meet his wife after her work here in the city hall. We say our goodbyes and promise we'll hang out again.

My stomach growledl. It's asking for food, so I decided to eat go to the bistro. It is one of the finest restaurants in Sunset Valley. I ordered Ratatouille for my dinner. I never tasted this good in my life. Back at the orphanage, my diet is just composed of cereal, steamed vegetables and if it's lucky we had meat every now and then. We usually have that in holidays.

After the delicious meal, I met Pauline Wan. She's such a sweet girl, we had fun chatting and knowing each other lives, but it turns out that she is like Morgana. She is not married but engaged to man name Hank Goddard. 


I'm a bit frustrated with this town, almost all of the beautiful girls are taken and I'm fearing that there is nothing left for me.

Before I left the bistro, my cellphone rung and it was Morgana on the other line. She said she was lonely at their house because she's waiting for his husband. It hurt me a bit, but she was a new friend and I listen to her rants about her husband who is not home for dinner.


I hear a choke behind me, I turned around and saw a man clearing his throat.


"Hey, just hold on for a while" I told Morgana to wait for the other line.


I approached the man. " Hey are okay Mister?" I asked him.


"I'm fine.Just mind your own business kid!" He snarled at me and went inside the restaurant.


I shook my head and continue the conversation with Morgana. (He doesn't the know that the rude man he had spoken to is Morgana's husband, Thornton Wolff! haha)

Before heading home, I went first grocery shop to buy seeds for my garden. This is for another income that I could have to build my house. This is what I love to do back at the orphanage. I'm a green thumb so I know how grow good vegetables and fruits.

I decided to plant the seeds that I bought. I'm expecting an Apple Tree, Lettuce and Grapes. This would be my starter plants. I hope I could make my garden bigger.

Then I went to bed to rest my body and be early for tomorrow for my 1st day at work. I dreamt of the future, my Science career, a family and a big house where I can see my children, yes children, running the halls. 


I hope you can see back there mom and dad! I'm happy. Just guide me and I'll make you proud there in heaven.




First day in Sunset Valley has finished good for our founder, Ibrahim Hollows. He found a job, met people and bulit a garden. Things maybe slow but every big things starts from small things. Let's look forward for the future of this legacy. Let's see on the next episode!
