BaCC - Week 5 - Cappe-Spice
Little Harmony stumbled across Oliver's hidden lamp and before she could touch it, Juliet intervened and shooed her away. She stroked the gold design and a large being appeared. The genie explained there were still two wishes remaining and after much pondering Juliet decided to wish for wealth. Before she could feel any guilt for her selfishness she had to jump back as a large bag of Simoleons fell to the floor.
She then thanked the purple man and dismissed him. Oliver would have to explain himself later.
Harmony had fallen asleep during the whole ordeal and Juliet quietly tucked in and thanked her curious daughter.
While entering the kitchen another bag fell from the sky. The money would take some getting used to, but it was fun.
The next day the Reckitt twins came over to visit Harmony. They've all grown close being the only kids in the neighborhood.
Earl Jr. and Harmony are best friends, even though he sometimes pulls pranks on her.
After the whole argument on hiding the lamp with Juliet, Oliver decided to try his hand at novel writing.
He still believed that they should earn their money the old-fashioned way, after all.
That evening the town had their very first burglary.
He stole their brand new entertainment center...
...their pinball machine...
...Oliver's telescope...
...(which he did not handle very well)...
...until Juliet ran into the criminal himself as he was grabbing their sofa.
Before anyone could react the thief was out the door.
The next morning Juliet and Oliver talked about how dangerous the town was becoming.
Being too scared to do anything else, Juliet closed up the home business for good.
As if sensing the family's woes, another lamp landed on their doorstep.
The time couldn't have been better since Oliver was suffering from a mental breakdown.
Juliet also had trouble with cooking something as simple as Mac & Cheese. After Oliver put out the fire, the couple decided that they couldn't just hide away from the world. They took the money they had wished for and Juliet opened up a small cafe a little ways down the hill. With the business being separate from home, perhaps another burglary wouldn't occur.
The new town member, Mason, dropped by and reassured Juliet that as the town's law enforcement their home would be safe. He gave a quick inspection of the building and then went off on his way.
Back home it was time for Harmony's birthday.
Harmony grew into a lovely young lady. She is attracted to blondes with high mechanical skills, but dislikes body odor.
Unfortunately Mason's promise of safety didn't come through. The previous burglar must have shared his news of good fortune because that night one of his buddies decided to try their hand at robbing the Cappe-Spices.
