The Old Quarter restaurant is nice and fancy inside, and the food prices reflect the ambiance. The food and drink choices include only the finest selections. Kimmie: So this is the best of what Windenburg has to offer? Excellent pick, Waddell. Waddell: I figured such a special lady and occasion deserves nothing less. Prosperity: *all…
I wake up extra early, happy to have free time to do some leisurely painting. I also end up with a high-level job with a very generous signing bonus that I didn’t even have to apply for. Now I see why a distinguished degree from Britechester is so coveted. Meanwhile, Kai is on the other…
Now that I’m officially done with school, it’s time to get started on converting the warehouse. I call up my friend, Wild, who is a Civil Designer. In her line of work, she knows a lot about securing permits, and she can also help with a design for my new home. Not only that, her…
As Waddell and I enter the house, four things happen simultaneously. First, Kai unexpectantly steps around the corner from the kitchen. His expression is exactly what I thought it would be – confused as hell. Kai: Why is Mr. Washington here? At the same time, I’m asking… Prosperity: What are you doing still up? And…

Craig walks Kai over to the beginnings of a garden. Craig: Have you ever planted anything before? This is not what Kai expected Craig to show him. He was expecting something more exciting…like bees. Kai: No Craig: Everyone should start a garden at some point in their life. The idea of planting a seed, taking…

I wake up to a text from my friend Wild informing me that she has a day off today and is available to take Kai and me to his father. My heart skips a beat as I read the words. I respond that we’ll meet up with her after my last class today. Today is…
Waddell: Is everything okay…with your family? Prosperity: Yeah, as well as can be expected.

Prosperity: I’d like…
