ISBI: Generation 2 - Round 2

[thesterina]

Last round:
‣ Anika got her own place and adopted a furry friend, Kerby!
‣ She repeatedly struck out in the romance department.
‣ Despite her best efforts, she didn't get promoted.


. . . . . . . . .




When we last left off, Anika went to visit her parents!




She met her parent's new cat, Tramp.




And suffered through her parent's PDA *barf*

. . . . . . . . .






The family went to the Tower Inn for a very sweet lunch by the river.

. . . . . . . . .






When Anika returned home, she bumped into none other than Carter.




She has a seriously huge crush on the guy, so I let her have her way with him.
Unlike the last guy, Carter knows what a booty call entails!

. . . . . . . . .




At night, Anika dreams of Carter. Ugh!




Anika deserves better... but I don't know where the men of this town are hiding.
So, I guess he will have to do!

. . . . . . . . .






The next morning, she calls up Carter for a nice lil' brunch date!






They meet up at the Leftbank Common and have a nice time!

. . . . . . . . .




I had to cut their date short, because Anika was exhausted!
Time for a cat nap... with the cat. I'm corny, I know!




Anika wakes up to a surprising revelation: she's pregnant!
Well, THAT explains her exhaustion!




Anika: OMG! A baby on the way?! Are you excited, Kerby?!






She gives Carter a call to share the news, but he's unreachable, as usual.

. . . . . . . . .




UH WHAT?! WHY IS THE POLICE HERE?!






He was as sweet as he was dumb,
perhaps even dumber!
Despite food being readily available,
he wouldn't eat 'til the brink of starvation,
which happened one too many times.
Oh, sweet and dumb Kerby!

— a lame poem by Sterina

. . . . . . . . .




After several days, Anika was finally able to get a hold of Carter,
and inform him of his incoming nooboo!






Once again, no beating around the bush with these two.
Anika moves Carter in and immediately proposes... He says yes!



Welcome to the fam, Carter!

. . . . . . . . .






A lovely autumn day for a shotgun wedding!
Tying the knot right away, because Anika is about to pop any second now.








Mr. and Mrs. Charles <3

. . . . . . . . .






This is best "wedding photography" the game has to offer, ok!






Anika goes around, greeting and thanking family for their attendance.






Finally, the happy couple can sit, eat cake and enjoy each other's company!

. . . . . . . . .






Literally, as everyone was about to leave, Anika went into labour!!!!






Welcome to the world, lil' Samantha Charles!

. . . . . . . . .






It's time for Anika to get back to work!
Her father comes over to babysit, but Anika seems to be experiencing a bit of mom-guilt.
No worries, your nooboo will be in good hands with her grandpa.






I'm not familiar with Carter and his ways yet,
so I thought it prudent to have a 'veteran' to care the the baby.
Who knows how far Carter's idiotic ways may go?!




A wise choise, indeed!
Carter didn't lift a finger to help with anything,
and he didn't even bother to interact with his father-in-law.

. . . . . . . . .




Woot woot! A promotion, finally!




And in other news, it seems that baby#2 is on the way!
I recognize those symptoms from a mile away now.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .


That's all, folks!




• Wow! What a wedding! Definitely memorable, haha!
• I'm bummed about Kerby's removal, I hope I'll be able to bring him back!
• I have no set plans for Anika's life, just going with the flow right now. Very excited for their next baby though!

Nooo not Kerby :(
Ugh, Carter seems like... a useless person XD Let's hope he'll get the hang of being a parent! Does he have a job at least? XD
Wow, Aryan has quite a family now!

[thesterina]

I agree 100%. Carter is definitely giving idiot vibes, haha. He does a have job at least, and I fell out of my chair when I discovered what it was, oh boy XD

[hemfbg]

Nooo! That pic of Kerby looking out the car window breaks my heart.
Those are wonderful wedding pics! I love how you've dressed Anika for the wedding too, she's beautiful.
When Callum showed up to babysit I remembered that this is an ISBI xD Oh dear. Anika has a good reason to be worried!

[thesterina]

I knooow, they way Kerby was looking up at Anika was just so sad.
Thank you! Anika was a lovely bride, right?! Even while being heavily pregnant lol. I had been waiting since Callum's generation to host a wedding at the church, I'm glad that I finally did it!
You are damn right about that; Anika SHOULD be worried... I think you will have a good laugh in the next update lol.

Aww I love seeing their families grow! I saw Aryan in the pews at the wedding and thought he was Callum, they really look so alike!
Grandpa Callum coming in clutch with the babysitting!
I hope Kerby can come home! I’ve had some dumb pets like that who just won’t eat!

[thesterina]

I, sometimes, wish I had chosen Aryan as heir, just because he looks soooo much like Callum. It's a nostalgia thing, haha. Yeah, I hope I can get Kerby back, probably after the next baby. Anika could barely get him to eat when it was just the two of them... imagine stressing over a cat AND two babies AND an idiot for a husband XD!!
