Generation Afrikaans, Chapter Four
Hello, and welcome to the new Around the World Legacy. Or, in Afrikaans, Rondom Die Wêreld.
In this legacy, each generation will be named a word starting with their letter from a language starting with that letter so a sim from generation A could be named Antwoord, the Afrikaans word for Answer.
Last time on the Around the World Legacy, the oldest girls went looking for a husband, and everyone skilled a lot.
And little Aap is finally becoming a child.
And the cake, right on cue, caught on fire. Again, everyone was completely efficient. Leslie carried Aap out of the room, then came back and helped Leighton put out the fire.
Of course, Leslie was feeling unlucky that morning, and she wasn't kidding. First we only got $200 from the insurance, and it cost $800 to repair the counter, and then the fireman fined us $500 for falsely calling the fire department. But-but I didn't even call you! They took care of it all themselves before I could even do anything!
But anyway, Aap became a child. I like her, but she's got that inexplicable brown hair that Afdeling got too. Hmm...
And Afdeling takes up fishing.
"But what if I get caught out after curfew?"
You're across the street from your house! Look, there it is behind you!
And speaking of the house, let's take a look. It's a beautiful rainbow. I haven't decided what to put in the empty red, but in the bottom of the empty orange is going to be a master bedroom and bathroom, for the next heir. I think I'll have them switch off with the purple bedroom each generation, so they don't have to switch beds each time the grandparents die.
And now, Afdeling the forgettable becomes a teenager.
She's pretty, that nose is odd, but she's pretty.
Next time on Around The World, stuff happens!
