Finding your way as a female scientist in the mid 90's is not easy. Especially not, if everyone's distracting you, like your sister that wants to party with you, or your boyfriend (?) that keeps insisting on dates, or even your best friend that needs help planning her wedding.
And you always have to be careful not to lose your reputation, as the neighbours love to gossip.
Thank god, Linda is oblivious to all those things, and focusses instead on what really matters in life: her plants!

Francesco De la Cruz' life does not go quite as he expected since he moved to Paris a few years ago with his boyfriend to become a popular musician. On the contrary, it goes worse and worse the harder he tries, until one day he finds himself in situation he can't get out alone anymore. Luckily Mae West, the sweet girl from the bar he works in, is on the spot and ready to help him out. But the recent events are dangerous, and threaten more than their blossoming romance...

    Hehe, I stayed up so late last night binge-reading your story. This is so much fun! I'm about half-way through. Can't wait to be all caught up. XD
  • candycottonchucandycottonchu Posts: 906 Member
    Aww, I'm glad you liked it! :blush:
    But I hope you didn't have to get up early today?
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    Hehe, nope. Today's Good Friday over here, so I've got a day off. :D
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    Bother. I've done it again. I've stayed up late binge reading your story. Fallen head over heels for Herbert. He's such a sweetie... as far as I know.... that Alejandro though... I feel sorry for his wife. She seems totally oblivious to the situation.
    I shall resist reading more and go to sleep... *here begins the withdrawal symptoms* Must. Resist. Temptation. XD
  • candycottonchucandycottonchu Posts: 906 Member
    oh wow! <3 I feel flattered, though I'm sorry that you miss out on sleep because of it...
    Herbert is really a good person, and Alejandro is ...complicated, best to say xD
    Keep me updated, when you'll continue, I love to read what you think!
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    Just read some more. I set myself an alarm, so I wouldn't stay up too late this time. Why is Herbert so cute?
    Glad he's getting a bit bolder. Nice to see he's growing in confidence. Mae's really sweet too. I'm also proud of Diana for finding a job she enjoys at the hospital. XD

    Glad you enjoyed it! :blush:
    Herbert is quite a shy person, he needs some time to warm up. But Mae's also really good at making everyone comfortable, so he has an easy time there xD
    Diana really tries her best to support her daughter. She didn't have it too easy, poor thing, but the challenge of having a baby made her grow in confidence too.

    Okay just started reading more and Marie is the cutest thing ever!!!!!!
    her relationship with Mae in the Christmas chapter is so heartwarming. I think they'll make a great team.
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    Sorry for the double post but
    that wedding chapter was beautiful. Linda's right. Delilah does make a lovely bride. That dress is stunning.
  • candycottonchucandycottonchu Posts: 906 Member
    it's okay, I really appreciate your feedbacks :3

    I'm glad I managed to show it! Their relationship is definitely special.
    that wedding chapter was beautiful. Linda's right. Delilah does make a lovely bride. That dress is stunning.
    When I saw it, I totally fell in love with it! It's from Colores Urbanos at the sims ressource.
    It has a black color option too, which should fit Paris really well!
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    @candycottonchu Ah really? Well, I know what Paris will be pestering me about! :D It's such a beautiful dress!

    Can't wait to read more of this tonight! XD

    "Linda sat down alone on one of the tables. The wedding dance of the bridal couple had looked really pretty. Soon the others joined them, dancing waltz" - this made me sad. Poor Linda. :( Frank looks promising though. :)

    don't worry, she hates dancing! xD And she enjoys having time on her own.
    Frank is a good person :) he always tries to make people feel welcome, so of course he goes over to bug Linda in her solitude xD

    Just read more.
    poor Sara. I really hope Paolo isn't stringing her along. :(
  • candycottonchucandycottonchu Posts: 906 Member
    Hmm. I had to read that chapter again to see what you're hinting at.
    Omg and here I sit, always worrying if not everything is drama overload xD
    But you'll see ... ;0

    Omg!!!!
    Just read the chapter where Delilah and Linda meet. The ex-lovers of Alejandro. I wonder if the wife ever meets the two of them at some point...
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    Hmm... I wonder if
    Linda, Frank and that other guy... the one she's dating are going to end up in a love-triangle??
  • simscognitosimscognito Posts: 16,599 Member
    Ohhhhhh dear
    I really hope Francesco and Mae won't have an affair. :(
