Life Goes On (Jerad and Simone Learn Dad is Serious)

How despite Kunio's demise, life went on, and as sad as that may seem; there were more sims in Riverview for whom Kunio's death didn't affect them at all. As sad as the sims were who made up the Chikamori family, they knew that their tasks of maintaining their family home didn't stop and well, they tried to do as best as they could. The cows had to be milked...and tipped (hey, how else were you going to get milkshake?) while other chores needed to be done.

Other members of the family were having to deal with their own situations. Aidan and Mara had to deal with finding jobs and making sure that they started their married life on an even financial footing.

There were some strange calls, however and that made Alanna rather nervous. It was a unlisted number and when she picked the phone up there was no answer when she said, "Hello..." and no matter how much she tried to get the other person to talk, there was no answer.

It made her wonder who was on the other end of the phone.

And life went on without Kunio, though Alanna had times where she wondered if life was worthwhile with him gone.

Her dad had to make food, so he made a lot of teppanyaki dishes to put in the fridge for leftovers.

Aunt Cait and Alanna's mother were busy with teaching baby Kai to talk and walk.

...and her older sister had her own things to deal with and her mother was busy from morning till night. Whatever Alanna had to deal with she had to deal with on her own.

Things finally came to a head with Simone and Jerad and well, they had been cutting school, and other deliquent behaviors. This meant that both Aunt Cait and Uncle Masatoshi were stressed out beyond belief. And when Simone outright refused to do her schoolwork because she didn't think that it was necessary, Masatoshi finally reached his breaking point which meant that he picked up the phone and called the military school. Well...I guess that'll learn her.

Masatoshi packed 'em both up to military school the next morning. Guess they finally found out that their dad was serious when he said, "Get your homework DONE!" Maybe this time they'll listen.

Aunt Caitlin taught Kai how to go to the potty and well, Alanna tried to pick up a new hobby - playing the violin.

Oh, joy...more torturing cats.
