Now that Rose was a teenager, she started to focus on herself a lot more than her family. She knew she needed to find a Rainbow Gem to turn Cuddles real, but she wanted her own room just as much! She went down to the consignment shop and spent her parent's money on a miner without telling them. She figured that selling the things she found would give her more than enough to pay them back as she went on.
Her first night of mining, Rose brought back some space rocks, some gems, and a gnome for the yard!
The next day it was the twin's birthdays. Andee waited until Cycl0n3 was at work and the girls were all at school before she celebrated. Although she loved her family, she was starting to resent being left alone with no help. She felt that she was the only person worthy of being at the twin's party. First up was baby Payton...
...and afterwards with Andee! Payton has Cycl0n3's eye and hair color.
Next up it was Portia's turn to have her birthday...
...and here she is with Andee. She has Cycl0n3's eyes, and Andee's hair.
When Cycl0n3 returned home from work that day, he felt bad for not being there when the twins grew up. He ignored Andee completely (he was angry with her for not waiting) and instead focused his attention on teaching Payton how to talk while Andee helped Portia learn to walk.
When Andee looked at the family bank account, she noticed that 600 Simoleons were missing. She sat the family down for a meeting and that's when she learned of Rose's desire for her own room. Andee thought that her request was reasonable, and instead of talking to Cycl0n3 first, she spent the rest of their family funds on an addition which will later become Rose's room as they get more funds to furnish it. (Room all the way on the right) As you can see, it's the only room in the house with a carpet and nice wallpaper.
Later that night, a burglar appeared on the premises.
Cycl0n3 called the police and an officer showed up immediately.
With the thief under control, the police officer returned the TV and couch that he had attempted to steal.
Payton is so adorable. She's always so excited when she gets a bottle!
As Rose has been taking more and more time for herself, she has grown more unruly than ever. Today she rigged a prank on both the shower and the toilet.
And she even went next door and egged the Landgraab's house! She actually hit Mr. Landgraab in the face with one of her eggs...
...which earned her a police escort home.
As soon as she walked in the door, Cycl0n3 started scolding her for what she'd done. Although she looked apologetic, inside she was formulating ways to undermine Cycl0n3's parenting.
She went to her mom and apologized for all of her horrible behavior lately including the prank she'd pulled on the toilet, and begged for forgiveness.
Andee saw right through Rose's little drama queen act. Rose hadn't learned her lesson yet, and Andee was sure to tell her that Cycl0n3's punishment of grounding was still in effect.
Rose set out trying to earn back her parent's trust by doing household chores. Although they hadn't yet lifted her punishment they allowed her to attend Maeve's badge ceremony for Scouts, and Maisie's recital for Ballet which were both that night.
How unfair is this! Rose got taken home by the police for being out past her curfew because the recital and badging ceremony ran late. Yet Maeve can ride home on her bicycle at the same time of night without getting in any trouble.
Although they knew she wasn't really trying to stay out past curfew, it was still pretty embarrassing to have your teenager brought home by the same police officer twice in one day. It was going to take a lot more than Rose had originally thought to get her punishment lifted. With the school dance only one day away, she got to work.
She even paid the bills!
Finally, the morning of her dance, Andee took back her punishment.
Will Rose get a date to her dance?
Will Andee and Cycl0n3 stay distant from one another?
Will Maeve and Maisie follow in their prankster sister's footsteps now that their birthdays are right around the corner?
Tune in to Chapter 4.2 to find out!
