Hello and welcome back! In the previous chapter, Maverick had yet another whim to try for a third baby with Eloise. He really doesn't give up, does he? Oh well, I let him have it, and to my surprise, Eloise actually got pregnant! Both parents are super happy! Max and Hannah on the other hand… Not so much :P Maverick's birthday message popped up, but I kinda forgot to pay attention to that because Eloise woke up. (Eloise) "Argh... I don't know... I feel like my last breakthrough was really my last, and it didn't even fulfil me like I thought it would... It's keeping me up at night now too... Is this really what I want to be doing for the rest of my life?" That's some deep stuff to think about right there. (Eloise) "I'll give it a last shot... Maybe if I try to write down my routines..." Hours later, when the other family members were also awake. (Hannah) "Is mom still busy on the computer? I kinda wanna play a game..." (Maverick) "You're not even finished with homework. No games before that's finished. But yeah, your mom's been on that computer for a long while now. What was she doing again?" (Hannah) "I think she said she was writing something for work." (Maverick) "Hmm... In that case, it must be very important." (Maverick) "Oh, just realised that Vera sent me something earlier. Gotta respond!" (Hannah) "How's aunt Vera doing? She should come over." (Maverick) "She's doing well! Apparently she wants to meet up at the park." (Hannah) "Can I go too??" (Maverick) "Did you finish your homework?" (Hannah) "... No..." (Maverick) "Then I'm going on my own!" (Hannah) "Dad!!" (Maverick) "Vera, it's been a while! How are you doing?" (Vera) "It indeed has been a while." (Vera) "I'm doing good, actually. Me and my husband Leroy recently moved in with the Robles-Ruano family in San Sequoia. We unfortunately weren't able to buy something ourselves, so we're very grateful for them." (Vera) "Oh, I also found out that Bennett and Danica are living in Strangerville now. There's a weird old man living with them too, though... I wasn't able to reach out to Bennett for very long. Hopefully he's doing alright." (Maverick) "And Veronica?" (Vera) "You are horrible with keeping in touch with your siblings, Mave. Veronica is doing well! Her oldest daughter, Monique, is already a teen, and they recently gave birth to Sara. Did you know that they also adopted a kid-aged girl? Her name is Cortney." (Maverick) "I didn't know... I really should get in touch with Bennett and Veronica, you're right. But life is so busy, I just forget about it." (Vera) "That's okay, just send them a message once in a while. I'm sure they'll like it." (Maverick) "I'll try my best!" Suddenly Maverick realises that he has to addend class. (Maverick) "Oh, shoot! I'm sorry, Vera, but I need to go, totally forgot about the time!" (Vera) "We'll have to reschedule then for our chess match. Good luck in class!" (Maverick) "Thanks!" Once back home, I found Eloise in front of the barbecue. Pregnancy cravings much. (Eloise) "Don't judge me." I would never. Later, when both the kids and Maverick got back home, I thought it would be a good idea to let everyone do their homework. (Maverick) "Done! I should follow Vera's advice to contact my siblings. I'll send a message to Bennett." He then started vacuuming his desk, in hopes to get answer from Bennett. The answer never came. A want to quit his job popped up instead. What? This should be what Eloise wants to do, not you. (Maverick) "I just feel like I should focus on my studies. My work is in the way." Are you sure...? (Maverick) "Absolutely!" (Maverick) "This is great! I should've done this earlier, really." (Eloise) "Haaa... What am I doing? I should just quit already... But I can't... There are bills to be paid..."
I actually feel sorry for Eloise here. I hope you soon find out what you want to do with this job.
