It was hard for River to reconcile her mother's passing, but eventually the cascade of emotion started to diminish. At least her mother had passed away peacefully and was reunited with the love of her life. She could only hope that it would be the same for her and Haruo.
Haruo did his best to comfort her the best way he knew how...with lots of love and understanding, just letting her know that if she wanted to vent, or to talk to get things off her chest, that he would be there to listen. And he knew very well that the healing of her heart would take time.
Fiona had been an important part of their lives and they each grieved in their own way.
River; by grieving at Fiona's grave marker...
And Haruo...by going over to Grady's and blowing the place sky-high. Fiona would be shaking her head at her son-in-law's fascination with high explosives.
"Honey...why do you smell like...Trinitrotoluene?
Storyline still in progress
In certain Asian cultures; memorial pictures of the dead are lined with black indicating that the person is deceased.
Mayumi was not happy about HER deceased state and cried about it. Surely after several Sim years...she would have gotten used to it by now. Evidently she was so bored that she went and haunted Grim's statue and then Fiona's headstone marker. She was probably jealous that Fiona got the big marker. "Quit complaining...at least you had enough lifetime reward points to get the middle quality marker...at least you weren't stuck with Simis' poor headstone."
It wasn't much of an argument, but the Creator managed to convince her to "go away" and quit haunting Fiona's headstone.
Satoshi found himself the "woman of his dreams" and proceeded to woo her. Evidently Kurt Shallow had something to say about that too...but Satoshi wasn't the slightest bit interested in his opinion.
With River's grief still intense over the loss of her mother, Haruo played the understanding husband and let her cry on his shoulder. After all...at any age, losing a parent is not something that one could just "get over..." It would take a long time for River to heal.
...and Haruo went off to detonate Grady's again.
River still mourned her mother...paying her mother a graveside visit.
Hiroko managed to be promoted to brown belt in Sim Fu and practiced with the training dummy.
And considering that Kurt Shallow's wife had disappeared under suspicious circumstances; Haruo sent a clear message to Kurt just exactly what would happen if he planned on a repeat of his wife's demise...with Constance as the target. The message was clear: Stay Away or ELSE! Besides that pink Kompensator was an abomination anyways.
"Honey...you smell like TNT again...what did you do now?" "No-thing..." "You were playing with high explosives again, weren't you..." "Uh...maybe..." "Haruo!" "Sorry..."
