Where Am I?

Fantasyland

Grace
There are times when you just know that you can stop the grim reaper from taking lives, then you watch your mom or dad actually having conversations with their lost love ones. I knew when mom started discussing things with her mother who had died long ago it was getting close to her time to leave her body. I watched, listened and waited as she left this world. Everyone came to say their final goodbyes to mom. She left us at 4am the time she woke up on the farm. As her daughter I wrote down her time of death but I can't officially sign the death certificate for my own family. She is going to go and prepare a place for dad.

Carrick
I think everyone said their goodbyes but Theo and it wasn't for lack of trying but he was too weak to be there. He left two days later. The coroner arrived and pronounced the deaths. Grace wanted them to pass away with their loved ones. I understood why because they asked her to make sure they did. My folks were all alone when they died. So I saw how sad Grace was when she watched them both die as she held their hand. The funerals were huge because they had a lot of friends. We had already hired someone to live on the farm and run it. The wills weren't updated because they left something for Mia along with a letter. I wasn't going to read the letter until the attorney suggested we go ahead. It pretty much said they loved her no matter what bad things she has done and they will always love her, they hope she can make changes and stop doing bad things. They left her numerous things that they thought she could use. Money, a home, a car and a small amount of stock. They left her less than the boys. The attorney said they subtracted what she owed the family from her inheritance. They gave each of us money she spent of ours. I had no idea they knew all of this information but they had their ways.

Barney
I can't believe that Maddie and Theo left me a place to build my creations and get them patented. I gave them a gift that kept on giving. Shelby was surprised that they left me anything at all. I was stunned but I couldn't turn it down. The things that I created could be very easily turned into a fantasyland for all ages. Shelby has been building models to go to the patent and copyright agencies. I did a lot of things for the Trevelyn farm that brought in more customers. Mia did more than people knew in regard to her grandparents and I caught her again and again. I reminded her exactly what I am capable of without getting caught. That stopped her doing anything on her grandparents farm.

Shelby
Mia never scared me because she found out the hard way not to cross Barney or myself in anyway. Had we known everything she was doing. Thinking she was dead we let our guard down until the body couldn't be found. Then the babies were the focus. We were able to do a lot with the property they gave us. They made an impression on me when they didn't mind cutting all Mia's cash and credit from her family members. I think I saw relief from the whole family. They stood their ground about Mia.

Christian
We are invited to a place that Barney and Shelby created a world of various things some cute, some scary and all controlled by a computer command. It was great to see what they had created and I decided to invest in the amusement center they had set up for us to look at. The boys were even tickled to see the what they had developed for them.

Anastasia
I found it hard not to take photos of everything but they insisted none be taken of the creations at all because they still have a patent pending and copyrights still in the process. All electronic devices were taken from us if we wanted to go inside. It was hard for me but harder for Christian to give up his devices. Running after the boys wore me out. Christian was helping but he was also interested in talking business with Barney and Shelby. Elliott and Kate helped us with the boys until Elliott got into the business conversation as well. There is a good reason my husband and his brother are billionaires and that is that they have an uncanny ability to find lucrative opportunities in everything they come in contact with. They see the prosperity in everyday life mundane things that no one else notices it. It's like how Christian hired Barney as a 14 year old computer tech, he saw a genius and wanted to assure no one took advantage of him. He made sure he had bodyguards and a guardian as well after he got him out of foster care. Both were looking to advance and make money. Christian gave Barney autonomy and it worked quite well for them both. Elliott helped with his construction abilities along with his design and architecture skills. He also brought along his talented teams to put it all together seamlessly.

Kate
I watch as Elliott runs after the nephews and talk business with Barney, Shelby and Christian. This means long after hours of planning and remodeling and costs of everything and then the profit and loss guesstimates. I sit by Anastasia and ask her how her pregnancy is going and she looks at me and says I should have stayed home and I am sure you are bored out of your mind here as well. We both laughed because it is true. My in laws are enjoying themselves on the more mature side of the center. We couldn't go into the adult center while our in laws were in there.
