Chapter 9 - Doggie Love

With Bernard working and all of the kids away at school, Bop has been spending a lot of time with Robo the dog. They have become best friends and Bop enjoys pampering and playing with him.

One late afternoon after all the kids were home from school, the whole family decided to head down to the park where they ran into Beep, Gavin and little Meagen who were also having a day out at the park.

Gavin had no hesitation to express the love he has for his wife right in front of Bop and her family.  Beep was happy to flaunt her happy family in front of Bop as Bop was sharing less and less affection with her husband in her elderly years. Bop even has a stronger relationship with her dog than her husband at the moment.

As the teenagers of the house, Everett and Dora have been tormenting the household with various pranks. Everett set up a hair dye in the shower while Dora layed out a whoopee cushion on the couch.

Dora also invited a school friend over after school. His name is Maurice Bird and it seems he may have more interest in Dora than just being friends. Unfortunately Dora has not had enough interest in Maurice to return the affection.

It soon became time for Everett to have his birthday and age up into a young adult. He gained the dislikes children trait. Everett is a little lost as to what career he chooses and hopes that after he graduates, he will find the right career for him.

Beep and her family also turned up at Everett's party where Meagen had since aged up into a child. She enjoyed spending time with her cousins at Everett's party.

 

Only a day later, it was time for Troy to age up into a teenager at his own birthday party.

Troy has grown up to be a very good looking young man who has also gained the lucky trait!

With the kids at school and Bernard off to work, Everett and Bop had the day to themselves and decided to do something crazy together. They headed to the salon and got tattoos! Everett got stars across his chest in respect of his space ancestry and his mother got a tattoo across her back.

After spending the day at the salon with his mum, he was inspired to get a job there as a stylist! He thought it would be a great way to channel his artistic side! He approached the business owner to ask for a job and she was happy to employ him.

Now that Troy has aged up into a teenager he has been a little harder to handle. He was even caught and scolded twice in one day for trying to put a whoopee cushion  on the couch. His parents know he is a good kid so they did not punish him too harshly.
