Alice hated her father. After all he’d done to her in his life, that’s not really surprising. But he was still the only family she ever had, so nor is it surprising when his death leaves ...
The final entry will unfortunately not be published today as it isn’t ready yet. It seems I failed to account for a lot of important and interesting new uni work being set when I estimated I...
Kev’s last wish is to speak with Alice. He finds her at their old park, passing the time with a book. On seeing him, Alice’s mood immediately drops. She really doesn’t want to see K...
Next on Kev’s list is Yvette. He doesn’t get a warm welcome. Despite all that’s happened, Kev still thinks he and Yvette are a couple. But Yvette puts a stop to that, and clearly an...
When Alice isn’t working, she doesn’t really have anywhere else to go. Often, she ends up sitting on the bench outside the store where she’s employed, waiting for her next shift to ...
Robert Newbie was the man that Kev met in the park back at the beginning of this story. That was a long time ago, and they’ve never seen each other since. But Kev remembers. Kev remembers his o...
Kev is feeling his age. You never know exactly how long someone has left to live in The Sims, but you can get some idea from the little green progress bar of their life. Kev’s is nearly full. H...
The blog will begin regular posts again next week, on Monday 21st September. I have also closed comments on the old announcement post as the comments system there had gone renegade and was arranging ...
I apologise for the lack of promised update today. In the beginning, when Alice and Kev first went public on this blog, running a daily schedule of updates made sense. I had played the game far ahead...
That evening, Zedadias finally puts all of that practice in front of the mirror to use. His masterful silly faces would seem to have successfully impressed her. But then someone says or does the wron...
It’s the weekend. Alice had a wish to see Zedadias again, so she’s back at his house to stay for a few days. When she wakes up about midday, though, she finds Zedadias has another guest. ...
Kev is now fed, clean, and not terribly tired. Therefore, he’s having a day in town. He begins the morning by trying to make friends with Alice’s old schoolfriend Anita. He isn’t ve...
When Alice was young, Kev wanted nothing to do with her, and she mostly had to fend for herself. But now that Kev is growing old, she’s reluctantly making the decision that she can’t do t...
Not wanting to be a burden on others, Alice has started trying to buy all of her meals at the diner near the warehouse. It costs $12, but it tastes better than her own cooking, and it feels honest. B...
Kev never left Zedadias’ home after Alice did. He’s still wandering the house having arguments with himself. Zedadias isn’t responding to him, perhaps hoping that if he ignores him,...
Alice has found what looks like an unlocked abandoned warehouse outside the centre of town. It could be a good place to squat when she can’t or won’t stay at other people’s homes. T...
Alice is looking after her father, but that doesn’t mean she’s pleasant to him. He gets some distasteful looks as the food is served. He seems grateful nevertheless. They eat together at ...
There’s an ugly confrontation between the father and daughter on the doorstep that evening. Zedadias is upset by Kev’s comments about Alice, and about him, but not once does either party ...
Past the billboard of a monkey licking its own eyeball is the town. Kev is returning to civilisation. He finds Alice outside Zedadias’ house. Alice is talking with Zedadias. She looks relaxed, ...
Eventually, Alice reaches Zedadias’ spare bed without collapsing. She gets a full night’s sleep, and wakes feeling well rested for the first time in her life. She concedes to Zedadias tha...

Alice is still very hungry, so before she and Zedadias go to bed, she decides to cook a meal for them both. Zedadias looks terribly anxious about this. This might be because this is the first time sh...
Next: Macaroni Cheese
After Alice and Zedadias had each eaten a slice of the needlessly expensive cake, they returned to Zedadias’ house. I wanted Alice to ask him to let her sleep over, but the conversation option ...
Kev wakes up that afternoon in an odd mood. He gets dressed, and then starts walking. When he reaches the last house on the street, he goes inside and grabs himself a sandwich. But he doesn’t s...
Alice is at the old park, alone. She’s spent the last of her money on a cake. It’s for her birthday. As Alice clutches to the remnants of her childhood, I try to decide what to do with th...
When Alice became hungry that evening, she chose under her free will to spend money on a meal at the restaurant nearby. When she emerges, there’s no sign of Kev. It’s all very quiet, and ...
It’s the weekend again. Alice will have to find food at some point, but she’s not in need yet. For now, she visits the library. Whenever she gets the chance, Alice loves to read. She̵...
Alice wants this to stop. She wants to stop being enemies. She wants her father and her to be friends. Secretly, this is something Kev wishes for as well. I have Alice begin trying out the various di...
The only thing raising Kev’s spirits from the pit of despair is that he’s with his daughter. Not because he cares for her, but because he likes having his enemies around so he can shout a...
