Reminder: This is my first Sims 4 family, originally posted back in 2015. I’m in the process of moving these posts over from my Tumblr page. See more info here!
Back at home, Kisha has fallen in love with baby Zena…
Kisha: Awww, Jeff…we made a beautiful baby!
Jeffrey: Of course we did! Did you think we’d make anything less?
Kisha: *to Zena* Hey there Zena! Aren’t you the cutest thing? *to Jeff* When his daughter was born, Trent told me that babies can’t smile when they’re this young, but I don’t care what he said…Zena is definitely smiling!
Jeffrey: I can believe it! She’s beautiful and smart!
Kisha: Are you ready to hold her yet?
Jeffrey: I’ve never held a baby before!
Kisha: She is not a baby…she’s your baby, there’s a big difference. I’m sure you’ll be a natural.
Jeffrey: Okay…move on over, my turn.
Kisha: Just make sure to support her neck!
Jeff cradles Zena in his arms and his heart just melts…
Jeffrey: Oh my goodness…you’re the sweetest baby ever. Hi there…I’m your daddy. *to Kisha* She’s looking right at me! Do you think she knows who I am?
Kisha: Of course she does…like you said, she’s smart!
Kisha snaps a picture of Jeff and Zena to put up on the wall.
Jeff puts Zena down so that he can welcome the repairman; there to fix the broken dishwasher…
Jeffrey: Just try not to make too much noise. We have a new baby.
Repairman: Congrats! I’ll be as quiet as possible.
Kisha doesn’t hesitate in getting back in shape. She wants to be ready when it’s time for her to go back to work. Maybe she can earn another quick promotion!
Meanwhile, Jeff is on baby duty. Luckily Zena is asleep and he doesn’t have to do much.
Kisha is still outside when Jeff decides to take a bathroom break. He ends up staying in there just a little too long. Kisha finds Zena all alone.
Kisha: Where’s daddy? Did daddy leave you all alone?
Zena begins to cry…
Kisha: Aw, are you mad at daddy for leaving you? That’s okay, mommy will fuss at him! He won’t leave you again.
Jeffrey: Uh oh…what did I do?
Kisha: You can’t leave her by herself.
Jeffrey: Well, what do I do when I have to go to the bathroom?
Kisha: Either take her with you or come and get me.
Jeffrey: Take her with me…to the bathroom?
Kisha: If you have to! What if she begins to choke or something?
Jeffrey: I guess you’re right. I’m sorry!
Kisha feels energetic, but Zena and Jeff are worn out.
Trent calls and invites himself over to meet his niece Zena.
Kisha: You’re always welcomed Trent, but you’re not allowed to say anything mean to Jeff.
Kisha invites Trent inside and gives him a big hug.
Kisha: Good to see you again, big brother!
Trent: You too! I still can’t believe that my baby sister has a baby of her own!
Kisha: Well, believe it! Ready to meet Zena?
Trent: Of course…that’s what I’m here for!
Kisha: Oh look…she’s waking up just for you. *Picks Zena up to show her off* Zena, say hello to your uncle Trent!
Trent: Oh, she’s beautiful!
Kisha: Thanks, Trent…we’re both very proud of her!
Trent: So Jeff…how do you feel about fatherhood so far?
Jeffrey: It’s almost surreal. One moment it was just Kisha and I…and now we have a whole life to be responsible for.
Trent: Crazy, right? Just think…I have a 2nd one on the way. You’d think I’d just have double the worry and responsibility, but the worry and responsibility seem to increase ten-fold.
Trent: I wanted to really apologize for what I said yesterday at the party.
Kisha: But, you already did Trent.
Trent: Yeah, but I didn’t mean it. I just did it because you asked me too, but I went home and really thought about it… and I’m really sorry for interfering.
Jeffrey: And for calling me a snitch?
Trent: *chuckles* Yeah…for that, too. Even though it was –
Kisha: Trent!
Trent: Uh…yeah, sorry. I hope we can be friends.
Jeffrey: Of course…my daughter is your niece, we’re basically family.
Kisha: Thank you for that Trent.
Trent: You’re welcomed!
Trent observes Jeff’s interactions with Zena and Kisha.
Jeffrey: *after kissing Kisha* I’ll give you and your brother some time alone.
Kisha: Okay thanks, babe!
Trent: So…do you have some food?
Kisha pulls some leftovers from the party.
Trent: Okay…I admit it, he seems to be a good guy.
Kisha: I know…and you should know me better than that. I wouldn’t settle for anyone less than a good guy.
Trent: I know!
Kisha: So, have you met our new nephew yet?
Trent: Jalen? Yes…he’s a handsome little guy. Greg and Abrey seem so happy.
Kisha: You realize that you, Greg and I will all have children around the same age.
Trent: I know. Kind of crazy when you think about it.
Kisha: Do you think they’ll all be best friends?
Trent: Yes…if we have anything to do with it.
Kisha: *melancholy tone* I just wish mom and dad were here to see their legacy.
Trent: I know…we have to make sure to remain a close knit family in their memory.
Trent finishes his meal and he and Kisha say their goodbyes.
That night, before bed…
Kisha: *rocking Zena* I wanted to tell you about your grandmother and grandfather, little Zee. Your grandmother’s name was Mitzi Wallace-Livingston and she was a well-known comedian. She could make even the largest crowds laugh. She loved her children very much…and she would have loved you too! Your grandfather’s name was Raymond Livingston. He had a twin sister named Gladys. He made a living as a cook…and let me tell you, Zee…he was the best cook in the city. My mouth waters just thinking about his food. The point is, your grandparents sacrificed and did everything they could to make sure that my brothers and I were able to live the lives that we now live. *tears up* I just pray that your father and I will be even half the parents they were…
Zena adds her own conclusion to the story by messing up her diaper.
Jeff joins Kisha and Zena in the bedroom…
Jeffrey: You know…I think we should start talking about marriage.
Kisha: It’s not fair to Zena if we only get married because of her. If we’re not happy, she won’t be happy.
Jeffrey: It’s not because of her…it’s because I love you and I couldn’t imagine my life without you…without either of you!
Jeff leans in and kisses Kisha.
Jeffrey: So…what do you think?
Kisha: I think we should talk about it too.
Jeffrey: Good!
Kisha and Jeff decide to save the discussion for a time when they are less tired, but they both go to sleep with the idea of marriage in their heads.
