Thank you, @nightlifeseries for tagging me in choosing my favorite photos from this year. I've been playing with the idea of purging a great deal of my projects and playing the Sims in a way I haven't before. This post will be my way of closing a chapter and starting a new one.♥

I decided to take my simself and roam the streets of my current WIP... Brownstone-town? (I need to come up with a name)

I still have plenty of work to do with the layout. (I made a mistake by putting the cafe on the end of my residential lot. 😅) But I look forward to seeing what Sims will inhabit my dream city. For the townhome I'm currently decorating, I imagine a handsome doctor or lawyer living there with their giant dog.🥰

Two Weeks Later...

This version of events might've been a little more dramatic, but things are still going according to plan. ♥

*Hours later*

Leopold: "Alice." *Every muscle in his body tenses* "Thanks for coming." Alice: "I was intrigued. Hell hasn't frozen over, and yet you wanted to talk."

Leopold: "You told me a lot about myself when we broke up, and I let my feelings block the message." Alice: "I know. It's nice that you took this time apart to learn how to be a functioning member of society. Good job. Leopold: *annoyed* "Do you have to do that?" Alice: "Do what, Leopold?" Leopold: "Can you let me finish my thought before you start taking the cheap digs at me?" Alice: "I gave you a compliment. I'm a huge advocate for personal growth." Leopold: "This was a mistake. Forget it." Alice: "Are you sure? The situation you're in must be dire if you're calling me for help." Leopold: *groans* "It is... you're the only person I know who can give an unbiased opinion on me as a partner." Alice: "This is about a girl? I'm a lawyer, not a miracle worker." Leopold: *swallows his pride* "Can... you... tell me... why you feel that way? Was I that bad?" Alice: "I'm not doing this in 0° weather."

*30 minutes later* Leopold: *finishes telling Alice everything* "Now, I'm trying to figure out my role in this. Chy wouldn’t have cheated without a reason.” Alice: "It's simple. You chose women who are out of your league. " Leopold: *he fights to keep his tone even* "If that was the case, then why did you choose to be in a relationship with me?" Alice: "Sex, Leopold. You were a handsome young man who took directions well. Once the fun wore off, I realized that you had no ambition. No aspirations. When you purchased that abandoned shack, I realized you were content working for your parents and staying in Briarwood for the foreseeable future. Leopold: *confused* "Wanting to settle down made you cheat?" Alice: "Absolutely! You use pity as a weapon, and instead of picking some local girl who shares the same sentiments, you go after bright, worldly women. Women, who in five years will be making six figures while you glue together Legos in your parent's car shop.

Leopold: *irritated* "You're such a liar. I never guilted you to stay with me. Hell, I would've respected you more if you broke up with me instead of having him show up at my job." Alice: "I'll admit, James was a little impulsive." Leopold: *resists the urge to yell* "I'm starting to think I give you way too much credit. Alice: "If we can go back to the matter at hand, the common denominator is you. I haven't met your new girl, but it pleases me to know that she's choosing her future over you. Outside of your looks, you have nothing to offer the modern woman.

Alice: "Next time, date a scientist. She can send you back fifty years where the world would be more to your liking." Leopold: "Where is this- Do you feel any remorse for what you did?" Alice: "Why would I? I did what was best for me." Leopold: "So, why are you painting me as the bad guy? Does it make you feel better?"

Alice: *She rolls her eyes* "Get over yourself."

Leopold: " You said you stayed for sex, but I think you cared. I think you feel guilty and are trying to justify your actions. Even going as far as to label me as something I'm not. " Alice: "You're assuming a lot." Leopold: "You're here. You could've ignored me." Alice: *she glances away* "I was in the area for work. This was convenience, nothing more." Leopold: "If you told me you wanted to leave Briarwood, I would've sold the house and had the truck packed. I was always your biggest supporter. I wanted to see you succeed." Alice: *she lets out a dry chuckle* "That's not true. You wanted to change me. Having me live here and spend all that time with your mother. You were planting the seeds, and I wasn't about to let you win that." Leopold: *he faintly smiles* "Cheyenne loves our family dinners. We were supposed to spend Winterfest with them, chopping down trees and watching sappy holiday films." *looks down* "She's nothing like you. I shouldn't have treated her like she was." Alice: "I bet you're happy about that." *sips her drink* " Found a girl with no standards." Leopold: "I've got to go." *leaves money on the table* "Thank you." Alice: "For?" Leopold: "Giving me clarity... I won't contact you again."

Alice: *smirks* "We'll see if Hell freezes over."

*Leo races outside and dials Cheyenne's number*

Leopold: "Hey. Can I see you tonight?"

((After talking to Alice, he finally rolled the want to get engaged to Cheyenne!))

*Somber 90s R&B fills the hallway* Penny: *She pounds on the door* "Chy Chy! Open up!" Cheyenne: *turns down the music* "You all are dead to me! Go away!" Penny: "Chy, it's Penny."

Penny: *Shocked* "GIRL." Cheyenne: "Hey, Pen. Happy New Year. *she looks down* "Sorry for ignoring your messages." Penny: "How long have you been like this?" Cheyenne: *she shrugs* "I don't know. My days all feel the same. *She quickly scans the hall* "Can we not talk in the hall? I don't want the other girls to get any ideas."

Penny: *Gags* "When was the last time you washed your ass!?" Cheyenne: "Last night." Penny: "And you smell like that!?" Cheyenne: *frowns* "I don't smell." Penny: "Bull!" Cheyenne: "Stop being dramatic."

Penny: "Dramatic!? Coming from you!?"

Penny: "Your nose must be broken-" *Her heart drops as she surveys the room* "Cheyenne."

Penny: "What did he do to you?" Cheyenne: "All of this is my fault-" Penny: *cuts her off* "You were drunk! You didn't mean to hurt anyone." Cheyenne: "That doesn't matter, Pen."

Penny: "It does! Is this bastard really going to let you suffer like this!?" Cheyenne: "If you knew his past, you'd understand. Cheating is the one thing he couldn't forgive." *tears up* "After all he's done for me... I deserve to suffer." Penny: *she shakes her head* "Chy, let's be real, a drunken kiss is not the same as you seeing someone behind his back. Not to mention, you told his ass as soon as it happened!" Cheyenne: "I still broke his heart." Penny: *her eyes narrow in disapproval* "What did you tell him?" Cheyenne: "That I cheated. I allowed myself to get caught up in the moment and I took things too far with my sorority sister." Penny: "Why did you say it like that!? Cheyenne: "It was the truth." Penny: *sighs* "No, babe. It really wasn't. Those girls harassed you for weeks and pushed up on you when you were vulnerable. THAT was the truth and that's what you should've told him."

Cheyenne: "None of that matters now. It's been months, and he's gone. I graduate in two weeks. What am I going to do? Where am I gonna go?" Penny: "You can stay with me and Dirk until you figure out your next move." Cheyenne: "I don't want to be a burden..." Penny: "Stop it. We've had each other's back since the 6th grade. We're family at this point." Cheyenne: "Are you sure you're not ashamed to be seen with me? I'm officially a hoe now." Penny: *laughs* "I told you Angela wasn't your friend! She's been lusting after Leo for years."

Cheyenne: "Hoe was one of the kinder names she gave me. The messages got worse after that."

Penny: *she frowns, pulling Chy into a hug* "Come here."

Cheyenne: "I love you, Penny." Penny: "I love you too, Chy Chy." *squeezes her tight* "I might not be able to make you feel better, but I can clean up this mess and fix your hair."

Words cannot express how happy this made me!🥰 Thank you, @nightlifeseries for all the support! You and your Sims are amazing! And our interactions have made me want to shed some of my digital hermit ways. I can't thank you enough for that. 😂

I'd like to return unlimited love to the following people:

@thagoddesdemi-blog You have beautiful sims, please keep it coming. It is definitely inspiring.

@citylighten I am silently learning how to photograph and learn the best angles. Thank you for being so detailed and precise.

@aleksa-sims I love how you aren't afraid to include controversial topics in your story. I love that you include the emojis, so creative.

@havenroyals I admire the twists and turns of your story. I feel for Neveah.

@damseljamsel Your sims should be in the movies or a museum. Gorgeous all the way around! I look forward to seeing your posts.

@winslete I love your story and your beautiful sims but why would anyone cheat on Leo! I am so sad for him.

@haitianc-da-simmer I hope you feel better soon friend. Can't wait for your next post.

@nata1997 I appreciate all the love you give on all my posts.

@edyavtostopom Thank you for the love on my story posts.

@charey111 You inspired me to put more effort into CC shopping and taking better photos.

@xomodella You are extremely talented in being able to convert those dancing mods! I can't wait for you to release more.

*Types in Cheyenne's number*

*Clears it*

Sharon: "It's nice to see that you cleaned up in here. Are you going to work today?" Leo: "No." Sharon: "Are you going home?" Leo: "No." Sharon: "I just received the bill from the dog spa. You can't keep Bonnie and Nina there any longer." Leo: "I can afford it." Sharon: "Leopold." Leo: "Mother."

Sharon: *She lets out a labored sigh* "You can't avoid her forever." Leo: "I don't want to, but I don't have a choice." Sharon: "You always have a choice. You're making one now." Leo: "I'm doing this for us. I need to give Chy her space." Sharon: "She never seemed like a girl who needed space. Are you sure you're making the right call?" Leo: "I thought the same until I was proven wrong." Sharon: *Annoyed* "You're still giving vague answers?"

Leo: "I don't want you involved, Mom. Chy and I are working on this."

Sharon: "You two haven't spoken since November. I doubt you've made any progress."

Leo: "It's... a process."

Sharon: " It's foolish! I don't know who taught you to handle your problems this way, but this has to stop. If you love Chy as much as you say, get up and fix it."

Cheyenne's Broken Heart Starter Kit

Que the sad early 2000s music ♥

1. Unkempt hair that was hastily cut and dyed with cheap products. 2. The necklace you brought with your partner's name on it. (Taking it off would only make you cry more.)

3. Your ex's oversized flannel. (Make sure it's 100% cotton.)

4. Unshaved legs 5. Your most comfortable pair of slippers.

6. A room filled with months' worth of fast food and alcohol you ordered with your delivery app of choice.

7. A trash pile of memorabilia that triggers you.

8. Your ex's number saved to your favorites. 9. A draft folder filled with apology text.

10. Your favorite break-up song. (Make sure you like this song. It'll be the only thing that helps you sleep in these dark times.)

The end of the term is a week away... Not sure what Chy is going to do about her living situation.
