The Layla Miller Story, Part One

Meet Layla Miller. Layla is a special Sim. She may be clumsy and moderately overweight, but she loves children, loves cooking up dishes for herself and others, and loves meeting other Sims. She lives with her sister Sharon, Sharon’s husband Rick and their brand new baby.

Rick enjoyed a wide range of activities, but his biggest passion was computer games:

Sharon was in touch with nature, and loved playing music:

Anyway, Layla was lonely. She likes living with her sister and her sister’s family and all, but she longs for her own family one day. She is especially close to her niece.

Layla definitely has some faults. Most obviously, she is severely overweight and suffers from binge-eating disorder. Her favorite thing to consume is ice-cream.

Anyway, Layla once had a serious boyfriend, but he dumped her after her weight shot up to an all-time high. Layla was devastated, but was determined to get out there and meet someone new. She also was secretly and very deeply in love with her sister’s husband Rick! Layla longed for Rick to pay some attention to her. The problem was, Rick and Sharon were the ‘perfect’ couple. They seemed to be really happy together:

But what Sharon didn’t know is that Rick would go online to chat with other women once Sharon was asleep.

Layla, however, knew about Rick’s online habit, and figured that he must be unhappy with Sharon. It gave her hope, so she started to chat him up, more and more often. Perhaps if he got too unhappy with Sharon, he would leave her for Layla? Layla knew it was horrible of her to want her sister’s marriage to break up, but she couldn’t help her feelings.

Layla decided to be bold one night, and asked Rick if he was meeting women on the internet. Rick did not respond so well… he was very angry at Layla!

Layla was devastated and horrified. Rick was mad at her! What was she to do now?

She apologized repeatedly over the next few days. Once Rick didn’t seem so mad, Layla offered to treat him to dinner one night when Sharon was working late. Rick agreed, and they shared a nice meal at a local restaurant. Rick and Layla had a fun time together, and even ended the night with a hug!

Layla was so excited. She just knew that Rick was interested in her. She knew that the way to a male Sim’s heart was through a good meal, so she resolved to learn even more exotic recipes. Night after night, she studied her cookbook.

She knew she would do whatever it took to get Rick…

    I find this story very interesting and one thing that makes the Sims 3 interesting is having the right to customize a persons personality. You did a good job at making the character and plotting the story. Keep up the good work.
