The Broke Family Part 1
Saturday
The next morning, Dustin os still struggling with his acne, so he applies some cream to his face (also you may have noticed already, but his handcuffs never came off after he got busted sneaking out…I don’t know how to get them off)
Brandi is still meeting the people who walk past her house and has one lightning bolt with Komei Tellerman. She doesn’t know if it’ll go anywhere, she may still keep looking for someone better, but she does like him enough. He also gets along well with Beau.
Brandi works on teaching Skip how to talk. It’s hard with her motives so low all the time, and when they’re finally up Skip is ready for a nap or a bottle. Still, she wants him to grow up well so she’s going to put the effort in so he learns.
Beau on the other hand wants to increase his skill in something. He takes out a book from the bookshelf since he has a big interest in food, but at his age he can’t actually cook. His family can’t afford to get a kid’s oven so that’s out of the question, but he can still increase the skill well enough through books.
Brandi has to stop teaching Skip for a while to get her needs back up, so he decides to play with the xylophone on the lot. He really enjoys himself. He increased his creativity skill too!
Finally, as the night came to a close, Brandi and Dustin are fast asleep. Their needs are harder to keep up than the two littler ones. They have less responsibilities to handle throughout the day. They bond late that night when both of them are still awake, playing with one another and looking forward to the next day.
This is the end of my first week with the Broke family! I feel like it got less interesting later in the week, but hopefully there’ll be more in the next week. I really wanted to find someone for Brandi, but she can’t afford the matchmaker right now and no one had that many lightning bolts to have me too excited about their prospects with her. Hopefully someone comes along soon and she can get working on her family some more as well as getting herself a job. Next time Dustin will probably be eligible to go to college as well, with his teen years ending soon. Will he be able to maintain his grades enough to get in? and will he get any scholarships?
