Aaron was super happy about the bakers' table. "I want to bake some muffins and take this to the park tomorrow!"
https://i.imgur.com/Cfy9JeE.jpg
So happy that he randomly faints... or maybe he is just afraid of monsters, but Aaron, there are no monsters here, they are only in your imagination... the monsters, atleast..

Natalie just came home from visiting Elisa in the forest.
https://i.imgur.com/4x9brBq.jpg
She couldn't help but to be worried about her sister now, whether what Elisa said was true or not, so she would try to convince her to come with her to see Sara next time.

Billy still wanted to learn painting. He was getting a bit sad about it now. Why wouldn't mommy answer him when he asked about it?

Aaron was up early the next morning to bake blueberry muffins to take to the Market Place park to sell. Isaac was asleep in Natalie's bed, so he could safely use the kids' oven in his room without fear of waking him up.

The market place park was just a few blocks away, so he didn't even bother to tell his mom where he was going.
https://i.imgur.com/QOB4N3a.jpg
He placed his little stand by the park bench between the kissing booth and the hopscotch area. He was so eager he was out very early, it was still one hour before the Market would open.

Eventually some people started to show up. He called for a man that was about to sit down and practice chess. "Blueberry muffins for sale! Only 6 simoleons per piece!"

The man came over, but wasn't to interested in blueberry muffins, and why would he be, when this woman came over to give him flowers...

Aaron wasn't to happy about that.. he left his bakers' station behind to take part in an apple eating contest...

The flower giving lady was enthuastically cheering in the background.

Billy also wanted to go to the park, so he went there and joined Aaron for the dancefloor.

Isaac was still asleep and Natalie had just gotten up to do more laundy. With three kids and one adult in the house its a never ending cycle...
And Ingun, how was she doing?
https://i.imgur.com/MRelVli.jpg
She was at home, in a heated debate with the stereo...
https://i.imgur.com/dEEVzY5.jpg
Natalie wanted to call her sister to talk with her, hoping to convince her to come with her to Dr. Sara on monday. Well, she jumped straight at it..
https://i.imgur.com/cUF0oJu.jpg
Natalie: I'm really concerned about you now, Ingun.. I saw what happened at work the other day, and.. I really think you should join me to talk to Dr. Sara this monday... Don't worry, she is super nice and friendly and will be more than happy to see you!
https://i.imgur.com/hpKFP6t.jpg
Natalie: No.. I uhh... have not been talking to Ramona, I.. uhh.. actually, this was Sara's idea to ask you... will you come with me to the doctor's office, Ingun? Please?
https://i.imgur.com/a43Ktl9.jpg
Natalie: Yes.. I understand you like to stay at home, but Ingun.. this is for your own health and well being.. you have some.. unhealthy habits... please consider...
https://i.imgur.com/ZlVaup8.jpg
Natalie: No.. no, the doctor will not make you speak at a podium... where did you get that idea?
https://i.imgur.com/A6QEIin.jpg
Natalie: Uhh... yeah.. I am sure the doctor has band aids for you, if you should need it.. so.. does this mean I will see you there?
Natalie: Ok, good.. see you at work tonight...

Aaron had given up on his blueberry muffins and was heading home..
https://i.imgur.com/gsZMAVA.jpg
Natalie (and Ingun) was just about to start their shift at the restaurant (I will not open it up, but leave it as a rabbit hole for today, I think we have seen what we need to see from the inside).

Aaron has a wish to make best friends with Lenore, so he invites her over for a visit.
https://i.imgur.com/0ra5bHW.jpg
She must have been nearby, because she was very quick to come over, already discussing the theatre with Billy.
https://i.imgur.com/ZzNp27x.jpg
Aaron comes outside, and they have a conversation for a while. Aaron is perhaps a little awkward, because after a while he randomly goes inside to take a shower, leaving Lenore standing alone outside. This bores her of course, so she goes home. Neither of them has been inside the others home yet, and they didn't become best friends from this short visit...

"If I can't sell my muffins, then atleast I can eat them..."

Good news for Natalie. Things had been going a lot better at work for her lately as well, so Ramona had decided to promote her to Pastry Chef (rank 6) and give her a bonus of 1092 simoleons. However, this also meant that, atleast in the work place, the distance between Natalie and Ingun would increase.
Heh, or maybe not, because shortly after Natalie came home, she got a phone call from Ramona that she wanted to wait a while with the promotion, and she was back to being the Line Chef again at rank 5.. she kept the bonus, though... "Whatever" said Natalie and hung up. As long as she was at rank 5, that was all she needed... and if it wasn't for her sister, she might even have quit the job and looked for another one, because what Natalie wanted was to reach rank 5 in 4 different careers...
So for Natalie, the promotion wasn't that important, she didn't care to reach the top ranks of the career, but for Ingun, it was different. Inside Ingun was still this little girl, whose biggest dream in life was to master the cooking skill and reach the top of the culinary career, and now Natalie wanted to help her sister achieve this goal... Now that things had improved so much for Natalie, she wanted to make sure that her sister also started going to Dr. Sara...
