Chapter 1

Marie's parents got divorced since she was really young. However, she still grew up happily as how a normal child should. She spent the week alternatively with both parents' new families. So, in total she had 4 parents, instead of two. And of course as such, she had double the happiness a child could get.

However...

One day...

Marie's double parents decided that it was time for her to earn her own happiness as she stepped on her young adulthood. She had been fed on silver plate and spoon for close to 20 years. The parents were just afraid that she wouldn't be able to adapt to the community after they passed on. And so they sent her off to Sunset Valley to start her own life, bestowed with only little sum of money to survive.

"That's life. Full of salt and vinegar. Take care, Marie", her biological father told her.
"I'm gonna miss you so much, my baby darling. I promise I will take care of your mother more than anything else on earth", her step father said to her.

Both her biological and step mothers couldn't stop holding back the tears. They hugged her as a finale and didn't manage to say a single word.

She knew she was ready. She just knew she was. She is blessed with the genius brain her biological mom has, and paired up with the love for outdoors that she inherits from her father. She sure can figure out something out of anything under the sky, right?

"If it's a roofless house is what it takes, here I am... I couldn't have felt any more blessed to be able to sleep under the sky. Perhaps someday with my future husband too..."



"With only 1,300 simoleons, how am I supposed to start a life of my own?", she thought to herself.

Well as a kid, she had always been trained the tough side of life. And that really enticed her to take up Military as a career. So she registered herself as one of the applicants and smoothly got approved.

"This is it. C'est la vie" - Marie.
