Chapter 25 – Jade Surprises Everyone

July 17, 2009

Jade was particularly disappointed. Her attempts to get the gold digging jerk out of her house had failed. Out of anger and frustration, Jade fired the little hot-to-trot maid that had failed to pique Maxwell’s interest. The next day, the maid service sent someone new: Demarco Lancaster. He certainly didn’t look like a maid. He had long black rock star hair, tan skin, and a fit physique. Although the previous maid had failed to produce romantic feelings in Maxwell, the new maid was giving Jade goose bumps.

Chapter 24 – The Gold Digger Needs to Go

July 14, 2009

Even though Aili had married gold digger Maxwell Falcon, Jade wasn’t about to give up her efforts to get rid of him. Aili’s twin had quite a long list of unsavory characters as friends, and given her predisposition for rather insane behavior, it seemed quite likely that Jade could and would find a way to get rid of Maxwell if she tried.

Chapter 22 – Consequences

July 10, 2009

Although sad about the loss of her father, Aili suddenly found herself with even larger concerns. Her dalliances with Maxwell had had some rather unintended consequences. After finding herself visiting the bathroom every morning, Aili finally had her suspicions confirmed: she was pregnant.

What should have been otherwise happy news, made Aili nervous. She knew that Maxwell disliked children. What would he think? After a few days, she finally worked up the courage to tell him.

Chapter 21 – The Twins Reach Adulthood, But Not Without Tragedy

July 10, 2009

Whether it caused a sigh of relief, or more gray hairs for their parents, Aili and Jade  greeted adulthood happily. Jade still spent most of her time in her room on her computer, or going out at night. Her parents weren’t exactly sure what she was doing for a living, but she did pay for her own existence in the house and seemed perfectly fine (aside from the occasional moment of what appeared to be her conversing with herself).
