The Romero Legacy

One thing I wasn't expecting was this ominous message whilst Bea was heavily pregnant?! Hoping they mean hospital staff...

Errr, is this what that message meant?! TWINS. The newest members of our legacy - Noah and Avery. This legacy just got interesting...

Life has been moving pretty fast for both of them - Lewis has been promoted twice and it wasn't long before their babies turned into toddlers. Here are some pictures of Bea with Avery. She decided to get some fresh air and headed out for some boba.

Meanwhile, Dad is at home playing with Noah while the weather is nice.

Bea's birthday! She's now officially an adult. Lewis' birthday was actually a couple of days prior, but I missed grabbing a ss!

While the kids are with their Dad, Bea manages to catch up on some well-needed shut eye... in the kids' pool.

This was a little unexpected. Flattering, sure - but no thank you, Marcus!

Bea had returned from the gym and could smell burning.. turns out Lewis (who had returned earlier than her) decided to cook up a storm on the BBQ whilst half asleep. Not a good mix.

Poor Bea did not expect her relationship to come to an end so suddenly.

She pleaded with Grim, but unfortunately to no avail..

Meanwhile, the kids can't believe their Dad is gone only a few days after their birthday.

Looks like Noah will have to take a stand as the man of the house now, and at such a young age..

RIP Lewis.

Bea is stunning. I like all the plants on the Romeros' home. They make the home appear inviting. So much has happened in your first couple posts. RIP Lewis. I hope Bea, Noah, and Avery will support each other. Using a grill is dangerous.

Avery has been really upset the past few days, so Bea took some time to console her.

Met up with an old friend to take the blues away - it was nice to be outside and have a change of scenery.
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768971114650533909/1078652292418519161/TS4_x64_2023-02-23_22-03-45.png?width=1193&height=671

The house felt really empty without Lewis there, so Bea decided to adopt a dog. Meet Bruno - he's a Bernese Mountain Dog.

Look who came back to visit! Bea spent hours chatting to Lewis, catching him up on what the kids were doing.

Caught this cute photo of Noah and Avery doing their homework together. I love interactions like this in-game.

& to finalise the post - here's Bruno all grown up!

Noah has been spending time training him, and he seems to have a natural knack for it. He's been a great addition to the family, too. Bea now has a reason to leave the house!

At prom, Avery met Sergio Coombes. They danced and talked all night.
The following day, Avery received a phone call from him!

She was nervous, but said yes.
They chatted about how uneventful prom was.
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768971114650533909/1078786474692051075/TS4_x64_2023-02-24_20-58-03.png?width=1193&height=671
Avery was beginning to develop feelings for Sergio, and hoped the feeling was mutual.
They stayed in the park until dark, flirting and playing.

They took selfies.

And Avery landed her first ever kiss!

She is smitten, and hung the photos up on her bedroom wall as soon as she got home. Things are finally starting to pick up after losing her Dad.

Time continued to pass and the twins were enjoying meeting new people and learning new things at school (moreso for Avery..)

Teenage skin began to show

Sergio and Avery began dating - and even had a dance at prom together.

Whilst Avery didn't make 'prom queen', she did grab the title of 'prom jester', which was good enough for her.

Noah has also realised something about himself, and has began a budding romance with their childhood friend Neil

A lot has happened since I last blogged about Bea. A few years had passed since Lewis had passed away, and although Bea was reluctant to move on, she crossed paths with Kiyoshi & those two really enjoyed each others company.

One thing let to another and, welp...
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768971114650533909/1079171895569698857/TS4_x64_2023-02-24_22-48-55.png?width=1193&height=671
So, of course Bea said yes. They were married the next day.

I would love this to be a 'happily ever after' story, but unfortunately Bea refuses to let her romantic relationship with Lewis wither.
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768971114650533909/1079189828354195578/TS4_x64_2023-02-25_23-24-06.png?width=1193&height=671
Avery and Noah remain blissfully unaware of what Bea is up to behind Kiyoshi's back - and of course Kiyoshi has no idea. Let's hope Bea can let her past relationship go so she can finally move on and be happy..
