New Beginnings

(I’m back! And I’ve learnt my lesson: no coffee cups on the desk!)

Well, guess what? Your humble and obediant servant, Abram Michael Mellon, is now Mayor of Victoria Hill! Oh, boy, would Ma and Pops be proud of my right now! I get to ride to work in a helicopter!

I’m still a dope, though. Guess who forgot his daughter’s first day at school? I had the camera all ready, and then those rascally twins found some mega-mischief to get into! Little horrors! But, they’re my little horrors, and I love em to bits!

Still, Adi managed to get a shot of Katie getting off the school bus, so I suppose I’ll have to be satisfied with that.

She sure looks happy, doesn’t she? A lot happier than I was on my first day at school, but, then again, Katie didn’t have a bossy twin to push her over all the time like I did. If I remember right, Amby shoved me down the stairs when we were getting off the bus, too. Hah, I’d forgotten how mean my sister could be. My face still remembers the ‘Textbook Incident’ though. I bet I’m the only mayor around here that has a crooked nose!

Adi had no trouble getting our only daughter to do her homework, which was probably a good thing. Even better, Adi was able to help her because the twins were taking their naps. Actually, I love those boys best when they’re taking naps! They’re perfect little angels until they wake up!

Anyway, getting back to my first day as Mayor. I was a bit shocked actually. I had no idea there was so much corruption! Council members helping themselves to funds, Congressmen with so many children that they’re almost bankrupt from paying child support, and my Aide’s been locked up for tax evasion! You know, I think I’d rather father another set of terrible twins than sort this mess out. In fact, the only good thing that happened was the welcome I got when I arrived home!

Well, I’m absolutely exhausted, and my bed is calling!

(Abe’s Lifetime Want is actually ‘Own 5 Top-Level Businesses’, but business causes the game to crash, and we all know how much I hate that!)
