Holden Wozny, just graduated from high school and now moving to a new town on his own, maybe not on his own. He moved in with his best friend, Gwen Glover. He still remembers how his parents reacted to this. A smiled from his Dad and worried look from his Mom. His Dad was pretty happy that he is moving in with a pretty girl who could someday be his wife, while his Mom was very worried what will people think, but still, they allowed him, as their only son, they want him to reach his dreams, and that is to be Professional Author, but he had another dream, a very complicated one and hard to reach.
Gwen Glover, like Holden, had just graduated from high school. She was glad Holden was with her. Her parents are very surprised when she told them she is moving out of town with Holden, but then they approved of Holden in so many ways. They loved him as much they loved her. They knew that she is secretly in love with her best friend and she is now a young adult and can make her own decisions, they gave her their blessings.
One thing though, she’s not sure is, if Holden is feeling the same way. They were friends since freshmen. Some of her girl friends were surprised that she liked Holden, they all thought of him as a weird guy. She didn’t thought of him as a weird guy, but maybe a little reserved. Now they both to a moved a new town, she’s hoping all will change. Maybe Holden will look at her more than just his bestfriend.
They bought a small house with sinoleons that their parents have given and it left them with a few simoleons to spare. Gwen decided to look for a job and found one in the music business. She will start tomorrow at around 3pm. It paid a miniscule of 21§, but it will help her career and paying their bills.
Then the first guests came. Zelda Mae, Iliana Langerak and Molly French welcome them to Sunset Valley. Both of them felt really good about meeting new people.
Zelda Mae welcomed them with her music. She told them that she is working as Music Talent Scout in the theatre and Gwen was very surprise to meet her boss. Gwen told Zelda Mae that tomorrow was her first day working there. Zelda Mae got her guitar, and as her welcome gift to her new employee. She performed in front of them. Gwen felt a pang of jealousy. She loves music and it’s one of her goals to learn of how to play the guitar. Maybe if she becomes closer to Zelda Mae she would teach her.
The guest had left and they had their new home to themselves. They make silly faces with each other. Gwen was thinking of how her career will proceed if she makes friends with Zelda Mae, while Holden was thinking about her.
Gwen hugged Holden. Holden was surprised by this. He asked Gwen what’s the hug for and Gwen answered her with, “Thank you for being here with me.” His heart was beating fast. Gwen asked him that she will walk for awhile in their new tow,she’d asked him if he would like to accompany here. He told her maybe next time, he will go to the library to use a computer.
Holden went to the Sunset Valley Library. He started to write short stories when he was in high school. He would write about romantic stories, to sci-fi, to anything that would enter his mind. He gets his inspiration in the books that he read. He is a book lover and his sanctuary is the library, especially when get bullied.
He looked at his latest short story, “Hidden Agenda”. It is a story of a guy named Henry and her hidden desires to her friend Gina and how they end up together. He clicked on the comments. He read about how outstanding his stories are, and they’re asking when will have his own book. These comments make his confidence kick up a notch and he’s thinking of writing his own novel.
Meanwhile, Gwen is using her time to meet new acquaintance in Sunset Valley,like Erin Kennedy. They talked about how useful is cell phone to their lives.
Holden went home after reading the comments in his short story. He wants to surprise Gwen by making her dinner. He started by a simple recipe, “Autumn Salad.” After a few cuts in his fingers, he made it. It doesn’t look good to eat but he tried to test it and it taste like a normal salad. Not really good but it’s edible.

Gwen was very surprised at Holden did. This is the first time Holden has cooked for her. The taste of autumn salad was pretty good especially for a first timer like Holden. Her heart was tingling with joy. They are eating together in this small house with only the two of them living in it. Gwen is thinking that they looked like a married couple in their new house, maybe there is a tiny bit of hope that Holden may liked him more than a bestfriend, and with thinking, it left her with smile in her face as Holden looked puzzled why Gwen is smiling..
Who would take the risk and make the first move? How would their career progress in Sunset Valley? Stay tuned in the next chapter..
