Chapter 1.2

Ayva was awaken by the sound of bustling activites in Sunset Valley early as before the sun rises!

Being new to the town not only has caught attention of some folks, but it feels as if an extra pair of eyes accompanied her each time she goes back to Central Park for more apples. Surely she wouldn't want to get caught for stealing apples, its so embarassing so letting out a sigh, she said to herself: "Ayva Simmons, perhaps it's time to keep things certain things in check!".

So although tired, but with some time left before she starts her first day of work as a Coffee Courier at Doo Peas Tower, she decide to hunt nearby for something else to eat. She didn't manage to find anything except for a fishing rod left by the river so Ayva attempts to catch herself some breakfast in the river.


Unfortunately she caught nothing -- "probably raw wouldn't have tasted very good anyway..." Ayva consoled herself.

Argh!!!!! Somehow... Ayva lost track of time and is almost late on her very first day of work!!! She ran as fast as she could -- thankfully, she arrives just in the nick of time! Still panting, gasping for air, a prim and proper; well-dressed receptionist hands Ayva a set of uniform to change into before bringing her to her 'workstation' -- that is the pantry where she then learns for the days to come, how to be a professional coffee courier.

..... Soon, the week was almost over.

Perhaps too, inheriting the schmoozer trait from her evil father had proven to be good afterall -- since, she got along pretty well with all her co-workers, also, caught lil' attention from the higher management.

Gunther Goth had taken a like in her professionalism even as a coffee courier & had applied to the HR department to have her transferred over to his, as a Report Processor. So, there she caught herself in a quick promotion! She's more than thrilled! Not only she is one tiny step closer to the top business track, she now can also afford to improve her living situation a bit.


Instead of heading back to her shack-home -- Ayva decides to reward herself abit. She treats herself to a well-deserved meal at the local Bistro, dining on a lovely bowl of Mac & Cheese despite being the cheapest on their menu. This is afterall her first, proper meal since arriving in Sunset Valley.

Mmmmmm, heavenly...


Afterwhich, Ayva swings by the 24-hour EverFresh Delights Supermarket to pick out some fruits & vegetables for later meals. So glad was she, knowing that she could now at least afford to make small purchases instead of stealing apples, while harbouring fears of getting caught.

While at the grocery store, she overheard some sims talking about a garage sale nearby & decides to head over for a peek. There, she managed to grab a cheap stove within her budget.


Ayva quickly fixed them up together, and decides to call it a day.
She tucks in for the night, grateful for a proper rest at last.
