Ava's Prequel, Chapter 2
https://i.imgur.com/nKrHBtm.jpg?1
Okay, Ava, it's only small talk. You can do this, she thought. "I really like this new house. It may be a bit small but it will work perfectly for me," she said to Dustin. Dustin looked at her like she was crazy. "Do you think I really want to talk about your new house? We all have houses, your's isn't better than anyone else's," he said to her rudely. Well, the nerve of this guy. And to think, I thought he was cute.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Langerak. I didn't mean to bore you. Can you please forgive me?" Dustin looked a little sheepish. "Uh, yeah, sorry about that outburst. It's nothing you did, I just have a lot on my plate right now. My sister-in-law just move in and she is driving me up the wall." Ava felt a little bit better but she still thought Dustin was a bit rude. She decided to leave it alone for now, she didn't need any enemies on her first day here.

Ava realized that her guests were probably getting hungry, and so she went to the refrigerator to get an autumn salad made. She knew she couldn't mess that up and she hadn't properly shopped for groceries yet.

"Okay, everyone! Salad's ready," she told her guests. She was a bit disappointed that Dustin sat down with her instead of Monika. Dustin just seemed a bit... different. She decided that she could probably do better than him anyway. She got involved in a conversation about her family with Gunther. "You should invite your parents over sometime," Gunther told her. "With your mother being related to Cornelia, I know that Cornelia would love to meet her." Ava shook her head. "That's not going to happen. I don't want my parents anywhere near me right now." She knew that she was the one who probably sounded rude right now, but she didn't want her parents around. David and Elizabeth Sinclair would try to bring her home to marry the man they had chosen for her. The Sinclair's had come from money but David had squandered most of it and now wanted to get Ava into a rich family. Elizabeth didn't know anything about being related to the Goth's and Ava wanted to keep it that way.

The conversation shifted to talk about Sunset Valley and all the different families in the town. Ava went to talk to Monika after finishing her salad. "So Monika, what do you do for a living?" she asked her new acquaintance. "I'm a snack hawker down at the stadium. I know it doesn't sound like much, but it is a step to becoming an athlete." Ava didn't know that, she thought that as long as a talent scout saw how great you were, you could join a team easily. "You have a boyfriend or anything?" she asked. Monika frowned, "That's one thing I wish I had. There is this guy named Stiles that I kind of like. Why do you ask?" Ava laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not flirting with you or anything. I've just never really had a female friend to talk about guys with." Monika's smile grew wide, "You can talk to me anytime you want. We can help each other out with finding a good man." Ava agreed with Monika, she liked that plan a lot.

While Ava's guests were chatting, she decided to do the dishes. She never did like a dirty house and was actually the only one who did any cleaning at her parents place, other than the hired staff. Shortly after that, all the guests said goodbye as they needed to get home to their own families.

She hadn't even had time to read her newspaper so she went out to get it. Ava knew she needed a job but she would need work experience before she would ever be able to get into politics. She searched the wanted ads and saw that the supermarket needed someone. Well, it's not waitressing, so that is a step up, I guess, she thought. She decided that first thing in the morning, she would go for an interview.

As Ava got ready for bed that night, she started to wonder when her parents would find her. Don't worry about that now, Ava, she thought. You are an adult now, they have no hold over you any longer. With that thought in her head, Ava went to sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
***That's the end of Day 1. She'll go to the job interview in the next update, and hopefully she can start bringing some money in. I made mention that Monika likes Stiles McGraw and the reason is because they hooked up in the original save. I don't know every hookup in that save but the ones tied to Ava are in the old family tree. To get these relationships started, I'll be using a few mods or cheats. I'll make mention of these either in a note or in the story as they occur.
