Sim’s Eye View

A few hours later, the spaceship hovered over the Sheridans’ yard. (more…)

After many weeks of waiting, Kieran finally got an answer from Michelle. She told him that she did want to marry him. He asked her whether she thought he should go to college or not, and she had mixed feelings; on the one hand, she wanted him to go and experience the things she couldn’t experience, but on the other hand, she would miss him if he were gone that long, and she was afraid he would meet some girl at college who would take him away from her. It was a difficult choice, but looking into Michelle’s eyes, Kieran knew what he wanted to do. He wouldn’t go to college. He would stay in Riverside with Michelle. (more…)

Kieran was a businessman at heart, but that didn’t mean he didn’t think about romance. There was one girl in particular that he was interested in. Her name was Nicole Thompson, and she worked at Riverside’s one and only clothing store, a seedy place just a few blocks away from Kieran’s house. Kieran often stopped by to chat with Nicole, which didn’t make Nicole’s manager very happy. (more…)

After years of hard work, Dellan became a general, just like her mother. (more…)

One night, Dellan was awakened by a horrible pain in her belly. Had her parents been right? Had she gotten pregnant that night with Mitch? (more…)

Although Dellan had lots of friends, she had never had a boyfriend. She was holding out for the perfect guy. She knew he must be out there somewhere; she just hadn’t found him yet. But Elysia wasn’t satisfied with this. She was getting older, and she wanted to see her daughter get married before she died. She was also starting to think about grandchildren. So she started nagging Dellan about her love life, or lack of one, and when that didn’t work, she tried to set Dellan up with a guy she’d met, a firefighter named Mitch Lawson. Dellan knew things were going to go horribly with Mitch. She had overheard him talking to Elysia about her. “No, I most definitely do not want to meet your daughter!” he had said. “I don’t care how pretty she is. I have better things to do than go on pity dates with girls who need their mommies to set them up.” (more…)

As Elysia’s belly got bigger and bigger, Elysia told herself that this baby was Robi’s baby. She tried to forget any doubts she had about whose baby it really was. (more…)

Life goes on, and eventually the Sheridans had to move on. (more…)

With Carmody’s next birthday, he was officially a teenager, and ready to go to high school! (more…)

The twins’ babyhood was uneventful, if a bit chaotic. With Aislin around to help out, Elysia and Robi had no trouble taking care of the twins. Soon the girls reached the age when they could start to cause real havoc. (more…)
