Marsden Farm – 36

A Bittersweet Prom

Christian:
I was harvesting produce with the garden tractor when I suddenly felt light-headed. I got off the tractor.

Christian death

The Grim Reaper showed up, and I realized that I was dead. I was ready to be with Loni, so I shook his hand and went to the light.

September:
I was at Hueber Associates helping balance their books when Dad died alone. Parker was riding Beauty again. Penny was working at the grocery store. Phoenix, MaryJo, Evan, and Jean were in the house, and Bucky was outside raking leaves, but he didn’t notice.

I buried Dad next to Mom in the cemetery. He was 97.

When I went inside, I found Evan and Penny dancing together in the kitchen. Maybe this was their way to cope. I don’t know.

Parker fell off Beauty in the barn when putting her in the stall for the night. Beauty looked away and nickered.

The household dealt with the death of both of our parents in different ways.

Parker is heartbroken. He spends most of his time with Beauty.

MaryJo simply went to bed.

Evan and Jean were flirting outside. I don’t understand my younger brother, Evan.

I was still processing the fact that both of our parents were gone. Overwhelmed by my thoughts, I went straight to bed.

September sleeps

The next morning, I found MaryJo cooking waffles.

Jean was crying on Bucky’s shoulder. He did his best to comfort her.

Parker was outside playing in the leaves.

Mindy Marshall invited Phoenix on a date to the dog park. She proceeded to insult him, so he bio-drained her. She insulted him again. He had enough and went home.

Casey Shepherd-Pinkerton called, and we talked for some time. We are interested in pursuing a relationship. I find him very easy on the eyes.

MaryJo had been begging the entire school to vote for her for Prom Queen. She won by a landslide. Bucky was voted Prom King.

It was a typical prom evening: The Sims were having a wonderful time. MaryJo and Penny loved the undersea decorations. MaryJo and Phoenix both liked the breathtaking backdrop for pictures. Phoenix and MaryJo’s prom pictures will be very memorable. Evan tore up the dance floor! Jean broke the prom backdrop, chasing her crush. The chaperone reprimanded Jean, and her crush got away.

The lighting reminded Phoenix of his mother’s Galaxa space car. He wondered when she would visit again. He enjoyed standing on the sidelines and checking out the others in their formal wear.

A few teenagers wanted to set booby-traps, but there were too many chaperones.

Fights ensued: Jean won a dance battle, and the loser started a fight. Feet were stepped on, causing more fights. When Jean’s friend was drenched in punch by a rude classmate, she beat them up. Parker picked on a nerdy Sim who fought back and embarrassed him in front of the entire school. Evan started a fight with a Sim who looked at him funny.

Sims were embarrassed: Jean, Evan, MaryJo, and Penny fell on their faces on the dance floor. Jean got ignored by her crush when she asked him for a dance. Penny asked the most popular guy in school for a dance, and was humiliated when he walked away laughing. She decided to dance by herself for the rest of the evening.

Bucky and Wanda are an item: Wanda Singleton likes Bucky a lot, and she asked him to be her boyfriend. He said yes. When she learned Bucky had never kissed anyone, Wanda asked the band to move the spotlight to herself and Bucky, and she kissed him. They did the chicken dance together. Bucky and Wanda were the cutest couple at the dance!

Parker and Penny hooked up: Parker’s crush avoided him all night, and when he finally asked them to dance, they embarrassed him in front of everyone. However, Parker did impress Penny with some epic dance moves. They are now romantic interests.

Evan and Jean: Jean revealed that she likes Evan a lot. They are romantic interests.
