Sims stories

Quentin spent the entire weekend drinking alone at a bar.

He told himself that if he happened to meet an attractive woman to flirt with, maybe a one-night stand would be enough to dull the pain. But despite hoping for a quick escape from his heartbreak, he ended up drinking so much that all he wanted to do was stay on his barstool until it was finally time to stumble home completely drunk.

He repeated the same ritual the next day.

Yet, much to his surprise—well, not really; that was sarcasm—the alcohol failed to magically solve all his problems.

Ever since the dinner at his apartment, Jennifer had tried to contact him several times. She had left messages and voicemails, but Quentin refused to read or listen to any of them.

He couldn't stop wondering how he was supposed to face her at work.

With the hangover he knew he was going to have on Monday, Quentin decided to call the hospital and take the day off to recover.

The weeks went by, and Quentin had become good friends with most of his coworkers.

He was still seeing Jennifer, and he had been planning to finally confess just how deeply he loved her—if that wasn't already obvious.

Then everything fell apart.

One evening, Quentin invited several of his coworkers over for dinner at his small apartment. Everyone was enjoying themselves when someone knocked at the door.

A man was standing outside.

Not just any man.

It was Jennifer's husband.

That was the moment Quentin learned the truth.

All this time, Jennifer had been deceiving him.

At first, unable to process the overwhelming mix of anger and betrayal, Quentin lashed out at Preston, Jennifer's husband. But deep down, he knew she was the one he was truly furious with.

She hadn't just broken his trust.

She had broken his heart.

To Quentin, Jennifer's betrayal felt even worse than his mother's. He had once resented Primrose for constantly following her heart on impulse, but this was different.

This wasn't impulsive.

This was deliberate.

How could someone knowingly destroy both their own marriage and another person's heart at the same time?

Although Quentin made no effort to hide his anger toward either of them, he refused to explain the reason behind it. When Preston asked why he was being treated with such hostility, Quentin simply asked them both to leave.

Jennifer looked undeniably guilty, and perhaps it was a good thing that she recognized the pain she had caused.

But as far as Quentin was concerned...

The years have passed, and Quentin has grown into a confident and personable young man.

Proud to have passed his medical entrance examination, he joined the medical staff at Willow Creek Hospital, where he quickly earned the respect of his more experienced colleagues and found his place among them.

Charismatic, witty, and naturally approachable, Quentin has always had a compassionate ear and a remarkable sense of empathy. Both his patients and his coworkers appreciate him for always being there when someone needs support, as well as for his thoughtful advice and calm, reassuring presence.

Only a few weeks after joining the medical team, Quentin met Jennifer.

He fell for her almost instantly. He couldn't quite explain how it had happened so quickly, but somehow, he was already convinced that Jennifer was the woman he was meant to spend the rest of his life with.

The feeling seemed to be mutual. Jennifer didn't appear immune to his flirting, and when Quentin asked her out on a date, she accepted with a playful smile and a sparkle of excitement in her eyes.

Quentin admired Jennifer's fearless personality and, in his eyes, her unmatched intelligence.

That evening, they shared a wonderful date, and ever since then, they had been seeing each other regularly outside of work. Anyone watching them would probably assume they were already a couple, even though neither of them had ever actually said it out loud.

As time went on, life gradually settled into a normal routine, and the children finally found a sense of stability.

Primrose seemed genuinely happy with Sean and showed none of the restless, love-struck tendencies she had once displayed with Manuel and Nigel.

Quentin was the only one old enough to remember his mother's earlier romances. After all, he was the son of the first man she had tried to build a life with, and more than anyone else, he knew just how impulsive she could be.

He was grateful that he hadn't inherited her unpredictable nature. Instead, perhaps because of everything he had lived through, he had developed a logical mind and a level-headed personality. He often wondered whether, as he grew older, he might end up putting someone else through the same pain his mother had unintentionally caused him.

He hoped he never would.

Instead, he wanted to dedicate his life to caring for others by becoming a doctor.

After being accepted into a youth medical program, Quentin took his studies incredibly seriously. He was determined to earn excellent grades and kept his eyes firmly fixed on his ultimate goal.

By the time he reached his teenage years, he had become deeply interested in sports and healthy living. At the same time, he loved activities that challenged his mind, especially chess and puzzles.

Making friends came naturally to him, and he spent a great deal of time with them. Although he was well-liked at school, he never let it go to his head. His determination constantly reminded him not to get distracted and to study as hard as he could.

One day, he would have to take the entrance examination for the medical program that would allow him to begin his career as a doctor without even needing a university degree.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...

The wedding was a wonderful success, not only for the newlyweds but for all of their guests.

During the reception, Sean even took a moment to raise a toast to Quentin and Qiana, promising that he would always be there for them and would love and care for them as a father, no matter what the future might bring.

Primrose was living her dream. This time, she truly believed she had found the person she was meant to spend the rest of her life with. For the first time, she was ready to make a lifelong commitment.

Once the ceremony was over, Quentin and Qiana had an amazing time on the dance floor, joining everyone else as they danced the night away.

Things gradually became much happier at home.

Quentin became his cheerful, curious self again, and his grades at school began to improve. He loved playing doctor and often talked about becoming one someday, convinced it was the career of his dreams.

Little Quincy grew into an energetic infant, while Qiana had mixed feelings about her baby sister, who seemed to receive all of Sean's and Primrose's attention.

Thankfully, whenever it was time to spend her week with her father, Nigel, under their shared custody arrangement, Qiana was absolutely spoiled. With his two older daughters already close to adulthood, Nigel treasured every moment he had with his youngest child and made sure she felt cherished.

Before long, Qiana celebrated her birthday and became a child with a deep fascination for Sulani's culture—especially its ancestral spirits. It was hard to explain exactly what drew her to them, but she couldn't shake the feeling that she shared a special connection with them somehow.

As the months passed, life continued to improve for everyone.

Then one day, Sean decided it was finally time to ask Primrose to marry him.

Not long after the birth of Quincy, the youngest of the three siblings, Sean caught Quentin by surprise by insisting that he accompany him on a trip to Selvadorada.

At first, Quentin was furious and deeply suspicious. But after enough encouragement from both Sean and Primrose—who also believed the trip might help mend their relationship—he reluctantly agreed.

Once they arrived, Quentin was struck by how breathtaking Selvadorada was. It felt so different from Tartosa. For the first time in a long while, he felt something stir inside him, as though the jungle itself was calling to him, inviting him to explore every hidden corner of the valley.

As if he had read Quentin's thoughts, Sean admitted that he felt exactly the same way. In fact, that was the very reason he had insisted Quentin come along.

To Sean, Selvadorada had always been a refuge—a place he escaped to whenever life became overwhelming.

Quentin couldn't help but mutter that he seriously doubted Sean had ever felt overwhelmed by anything.

Instead of scolding him, Sean simply let the comment slide.

Over the next three days, they spent their time digging for buried artifacts and relics. Sean explained that his job was to analyze these discoveries before returning them to the authorities in Selvadorada, helping them piece together the region's history.

Quentin had never realized that was what Sean did for a living. He found himself genuinely impressed—not only by Sean's work, but also by the sides of him he had never taken the time to see.

When Sean invited Quentin to help with the excavations, the naturally curious boy couldn't resist. He wanted to follow in Sean's footsteps and prove that he was capable of contributing.

That short trip—almost like a father-and-son adventure—did exactly what Sean and Primrose had hoped it would. It gave them the chance to rebuild a relationship that had been damaged by how quickly everything in their lives had changed.

When they returned home, Quentin surprised Sean with a heartfelt hug.

As Primrose's pregnancy drew to a close, Quentin's behavior toward Sean—and even toward Primrose—grew increasingly hostile.

Frustrated, he felt like no one was listening to him. But even if someone had tried to understand, the truth was that Quentin probably wouldn't have known where to begin.

What exactly was he feeling?

Why did it hurt so much?

How could he possibly put into words the whirlwind of emotions that had been consuming him ever since Nigel left... and ever since his father, Manuel, refused to let Quentin come live with him instead of staying with his mom?

How was he supposed to let all of that pain out without completely exploding?

One evening, Quentin got into a heated argument with Sean. He hurled such cruel insults at him that Sean—who usually left discipline to Primrose because he didn't feel it was his place to step in—finally decided enough was enough and punished the boy himself.

The following day, Sean told Primrose what had happened and asked her to speak with Quentin as well, so he would understand that his behavior had crossed a line. Primrose took the matter seriously.

Punished twice over, Quentin had no choice but to swallow his anger once again.

Sean moved in almost as quickly as Nigel moved out.

It was a lot for Quentin and Qiana to process. They were heartbroken to see one parent leave, only to have a new face suddenly take his place in their family. Quentin, especially, struggled with the change. He was angry and resented Sean simply for being there. In his mind, Sean was the reason their family had fallen apart, and that resentment only grew stronger as the years went by.

A child with a vivid imagination, Quentin often escaped into elaborate daydreams of the perfect life. In those stories, his mom, his dad, Nigel, Qiana, and he all lived happily together in a big house, where every argument and every heartbreak had long been forgotten.

Of course, Sean was never part of those dreams.

Primrose and Nigel settled into a stable, peaceful routine where everything felt predictable and well organized. For a while, that was enough, and Primrose was truly happy.

Little Qiana grew into a calm infant, and Quentin continued to adore his baby sister. Meanwhile, the bakery became more and more successful, and Primrose decided it was finally time to hire an employee to help run the business.

But the moment she interviewed the young man, it was love at first sight.

As the weeks passed, her feelings for Sean only grew stronger. Sean seemed to enjoy the lingering glances Primrose couldn't help but steal whenever they were together, and before long, the attraction between them became impossible to ignore.

One day, they crossed the line.

Consumed with guilt after kissing Sean and betraying Nigel, Primrose confessed everything. With a heavy heart, she suggested that they end their relationship.

Nigel was devastated.

So was Primrose, in her own way.

It was the end of the stability they had built together, the peaceful days, and the comfortable routine they had shared.

On Love Day, Primrose and Nigel had planned a romantic evening together in the privacy of their bedroom. They had thought of everything: charming decorations, sweet treats, rose petals, and an intimate atmosphere.

However, their baby decided that this was the perfect night to make her grand entrance.

Primrose and Nigel had no choice but to put their plans on hold and rush to the hospital, where Primrose gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Qiana.

As time went by, things were going fairly well at home.

Little Quentin celebrated his birthday, and despite their financial struggles, Primrose was determined to make it a day to remember. She didn't hold back when it came to gifts or desserts, and the naturally curious little boy was absolutely delighted with his birthday celebration.

To Quentin, Nigel was simply another parent. He didn't really understand the difference between him and his biological father, Manuel, whom he stayed with every other week. Although Quentin felt especially close to his dad, Nigel remained a constant and loving father figure in his life.

He adored his half-sisters, Aeris and Erin, who were much older than he was, even if he didn't get to see them very often.

Not long afterward, Nigel told Primrose that he had finalized his divorce from Sara. A little while later, he moved in with Primrose and her son, promising to love Quentin as if he were his own.

Together, they settled into a peaceful routine that brought Primrose a great deal of comfort, even though she occasionally found herself longing for something more.

As money became scarce, Nigel made a difficult sacrifice. He gave up the job he loved as a gardener to join the corporate world—a career he had always despised, but one that paid far better. They needed the extra income if Primrose was going to keep pursuing her dream of making a living from her bakery.

Especially now that they had discovered they were expecting a baby.

By then, Primrose had already become close friends with Nigel, a regular customer at her bakery. She knew he was married and had seen his wife and their children around town a few times.

One evening, they decided to grab a drink at the karaoke bar. Each of them was weighed down by their own troubles, and before long, they found themselves opening up to one another. Primrose talked about her rocky relationship with Manuel, while Nigel admitted that things with his wife weren't going well and that he longed for something different.

They drank a little too much, and by the end of the night, they were wrapped in each other's arms like two lovebirds.

Primrose had always been known for acting on impulse, but helping to break up a marriage was a first, even for her.

Yet when Nigel returned to the bakery a few days later to pick up his usual order, Primrose couldn't stop herself from kissing him out of the blue. Instead of pulling away, he asked her out on a date... perhaps to get to know each other better.

In the end, they grew far closer than either of them had ever expected.

As for Manuel, he had already made up his mind to leave by the time Primrose brought up the idea of separating. He spent a long time with his son, wondering how Quentin would grow up surrounded by so much uncertainty—shared custody, constant arguments, and the possibility of future half-siblings.
