Lately I have had Justin and Lashawn over a lot more than before . I want Jada and Kameko to get along with their cousins. Out of our family we are close since we were the last ones in our parents house.
Photobucket
Justin and I start talking about our old times to the sorrow of Lashawn and Cara.
Photobucket
The kids are getting along and I it reminds me when my life was care free.

I talked with Cara because I have to go and spend some time downtown Viramontes at my restaurant. Cara says that im going to get overworked but I don't think so. I love owning my own business.
Photobucket
I decided to hire Goopy Gilscarbo as manager. I need to focus on my job but I want to make sure the restarunt is taken care of.
Photobucket
Came back home and I loved the fact that my family was ready to eat dinner. These are the moments that I love. I love my family and I think hiring a manager was the best choice.

Adam Barillas ch 7

Adam (33), his wife Cara (29) their kids: Jada and Kameko (4)
Narrated by Adam.
Adam ch 7
Cara and I have finally settled into our new home and we both are doing great in our careers. It seems so long ago that we actually had time to ourselves.
Adam ch 7
Being a celebrity chef allows me to spend more time at home. I have a manager at the restaurant so I don't go as often. Because of this I have decided to stay at home with the girls while Cara works.
Adam ch 7
It's not as easy as it looks. I managed to get the girls down for their nap and then im off to clean all the leaves. Its fall and I want our new house to look clean and neat. I don't want the neighbors to complain.
Adam ch 7
I also practice a little yoga. I like Yoga, it relaxes me and gives me the patience to deal with two twin toddlers.
Adam ch 7
My niece in law Vanessa started working with Cara and they are fast becoming friends. I am glad that Vanessa is getting along with the family. I still feel that I should try to visit my family more often than I do.
Adam ch 7
My brother Ian came over to have dinner with us. He worries me because I have heard rumors that he is having not one but various affairs. His cheating on Mary is becoming too obvious.
Adam ch 7
We planned a party for the twins and we managed to invite our whole family. I was amazed at how many nephews and nieces I have. The house seemed way too small for all these people.
Adam ch 7
The girls were more happier than usual to have new doll houses to play with. They do share with each other but Cara wants them to have their own things at the same time.
Adam ch 7
Just because they have their doll houses, does not mean that they do not use the computer. Cara and I have to learn to set more boundaries.
Adam ch 7
For now Cara is being strict with the girls completing their homework. I just hope that the friends they meet are good influences in their lives.

Adam Barillas --Ch 6

Adam (31), his wife Cara (27), their children (twins) Kameko and Jada (2)

The first thing we realized when we had the girls is that we needed a new apartment or a home. I really didnt want to move all of our stuff but it was too over crowded in our apartment. Cara and I looked at various houses and decided that this one would be the best for us. It was small two bedroom house but it fit us perfectly. The first day we moved in it felt like we were finally home.
adam 6
As soon as we had settled everything down, my sister-in-law Brandi called to make sure we had made it OK. Cara was happy to see that my family not only helped us move but they were making sure we were OK.
adam 6
When we woke up it was strange to be in a new bedroom. We received a little deal because the house was not painted inside. I just managed barely to have enough money for the down payment. Cara hugged me and said that she couldn't believe that we were parents and homeowners at that. I still couldnt believe that I was in bed knowing full well I had a business to check up on.
adam 6
I still work as a celebrity chef but on my days off I head over to my restaurant to make sure things are running smoothly. I must admit that since I did the makeover business has picked up somewhat. One of my celebrity clients told me that the best thing I can do is be there for my customers to see me and interact with me. It's hard because I would rather be at home than being here. In the end with my new mortgage, I need to work hard to pay it off.
adam 6
My brother Oscar Simon II came by to make sure I was handling the stress of moving and the restaurant. I assured him that everything was fine and he in turned questioned when we were going to have our house warming party. I really didnt think of that but I guess it was one of the things that Cara might have planned.
adam 6
I asked Cara over breakfast a few days later and sure enough she had planned it for the upcoming weekend. I could not believe how many things one had to do when a house was bought. We had not even finished painting the upstairs and we were having a party? Cara confirmed that we were having a housewarming party and we would have a great time.
adam 6
We put the girls to bed early so that we could concentrate on our guests. I am sure that with my family they would be up here any minute looking at the girls. Cara hoped that no one would disturb their sleep.
adam 6
Finally my family started to arrive. Sadly not everyone could make it which is a good thing given my small house. My little brother Justin did come over and I was so happy to see him and LaShawn. They lived on the outskirts of Viramontes so it took them a while to get here. Being that the party was a late dinner, they decided to leave the girls at home with a babysitter. I made a mental note to go visit my nieces the first opportunity I had.
adam 6
We all sat down and discussed what was new in our family. My brother Oscar Simon II was telling us how they had renovated their vacation home. They were encouraging us to buy into vacation property. Both Justin and I own business that give us no financial freedom to own a house at the moment. I know that Justin shut down his business for a while so I am assuming that he has no plans on a vacation home anytime soon.
adam 6
Everyone finally left and before I knew it Cara and I were going at it in our living room. She gave me a wink and I was all hers.

Adam (29) Cara his wife (25)

Being married two years seemed easier than thought it would be. We had fallen into a wonderful routine of getting up going to work then coming home and enjoying our company. I am still employed as a celebrity chef as well as owning an up and coming restaurant. Cara is still working at the travel agency as a receptionist but she loves her job. I had my brother Ian and Nephew Alfredo over for dinner the other day.
I had not seen my brother since the dinner over my other brother Marco's house. Since I am the youngest of the family it is hard to bond with them. When my sister Adrienne (god rest her soul) and I were born, they were out of the house and in college. The only brother we really knew was Justin.
Photobucket
After dinner we walked our guests out and I was listening to my brother Ian talk when I noticed Cara looked green. She quickly straightened up and excused herself. When I got in the house I noticed she went straight to bed.
Photobucket
We tend to work the same schedule;however, there are a few weeks when we work opposite schedules. By the time I got around to asking Cara what was wrong , well she already knew. She proceeded to tell me that she was pregnant. I did not know what to say. We were not planning it but at the same time we were not avoiding it. I have to admit the first thing that came to my mind was to go visit my parents grave and telling them.
Photobucket
Cara came with me and she was shocked to see how well decorated with flowers the graves were. She said hello to my parents and promised them to take care of me and their new granddaughter or grandson.
Photobucket
Then i showed her Adrienne's grave. Adrienne my twin sister, my better half. She and I were always together. I could not believe that it had been almost 6 years since she had passed. How is is that I still miss her and my parents so much. Cara chuckled a little when she remembered how jealous she was of the blonde girl's picture. then she felt bad when she found out it was Adriennes picture. Now she cherishes the picture as much as I do.
Photobucket
I was so emotional that Cara just hugged me and told me that I would never be alone. All she wanted for us to be happy with her family.
Photobucket
Cara was pregnant and big before we knew it. I was so ecstatic to be a father and so was Cara.
Photobucket
To our surprise when Cara gave birth she did to to beautiful girls. One we named Kameko and the other Jada. I am happy as well as Cara.

Adam Barillas-- Chapter 4

Adam (27), Cara Nanale (25)
Narrated by Cara Nanale.
Adam4a
I came to Viramontes and decided to stay with Adam. I enjoy this town since its so differently from the island where I was born. Everytime that I think about home I miss it more and more. I love being here with Adam and my new job definitely provides me with financial security while im here. Adam is a chef and also has started his own business.
Now that I am here Adam wants me to meet his family and get to know them. I am an only child and didnt even have an idea on how big Adam's family is. He tells me that he has seven brothers and sisters. I can not even imagine having that many siblings.
adam4b
we decided to have a barbecue in downtown park. It was nice that his whole family was there. I noticed how Adam looked like his brother Marcos a lot.
adam4c
I guess Adam figured that I was a little overwhelmed trying to remember everybody's name.
He caught me in the outskirts of the park taking a breather.
"Are you OK? I know its a lot of people to meet at once."
"Yes. I cant believe all of you get along. Its nice to see that you guys have parties together"
"I know. I wanted to tell you that you are so important to me and this is why I wanted to share you Cara. I want my family to know that you and I are together and that we love each other. "
Before I knew it he got on his knee.
adam4d
Adam said so many beautiful things that he wanted for us to live together. I was amazed that he would do this here...but the outcome would have been the same no matter when or where it happened. I of course said, "yes".
adam4e
After we sat there and we looked out at the park.
"Do we tell them all now?"
"No. We have to talk to Oscar and Brandi first and then they will all know."
Adam proceeded to tell me about the legacy life style and how out of respect Oscar Simon would have to be notified about our wedding. I have only heard of this legacy lifestyle but never imagined myself marrying into it. Given the details of this lifestyle im glad that Adam is not the Legacy heir.
adam4f
I wrote everyone at home and told them about my engagement and they were all excited to hear my news. My parents were also excited but they told me that unless the wedding was on our Island then they would not be able to come. My parents have a phobia about flying and I understand.
adam4g
The day came when Adam and I met with Oscar and his wife Brandi. They were easy to get along with . Im happy that I got to meet them.
adam4h
In the end, Oscar laughed when I asked him if he approved of our marriage. He replied, "I may be legacy heir but I do not have that kind of power".
adam4i
We had our wedding in the northern park of downtown.
adam4j
I still can not believe that were married. Adam's vows to me put my vows to shame. He stated that he loved me and would give his life to be by my side. He just makes my heart swell.
adam4k
Now that were married Adam has vowed to get his restaurant up and running. He didnt dedicate much time and now he was going to make it happen. He asked me to help and of course I said yes. Hopefully we can get the restaurant up and running.

Adam Barillas-- Chapter 3

Adam ch3a
Adam Barillas Age 27
Job: Executive Chef.
Marital Status: Actively dating.
adam ch3b
Adam had been busy in the restaraunt and had lost track of time. When he got home he was ready to go in and go to sleep. When he arrived at his house he was shocked to see Kaylynn standing there. He thought that she had come back to visit their neighbors. He had not seen her in over two years and did not hope that she would start a lengthy conversation. He was wrong because as soon as she saw him she ran over.
"I thought you would never get here."
"Hi Kaylynn. What a surprise. I thought you moved and never thought about visiting us poor folk in Viramontes."
"Of course I thought about everyone here. I especially thought about you."
Adam didnt believe none of it. After he spent months looking at his phone and email religiously he knew that she would call him.
"Oh really well how can I help you? tell me whats up"
"You see Adam. I actually got transferred back to Viramontes and well I was hoping to bribe the person who rented my apartment with this cake. I really loved my apartment here and I thought it would be just super to be able to move back in."
" I see. Here I thought that you were just bringing that cake for little ol me." Adam sarcasticallyh replied.
"Oh, well you can have a piece once your hopefully soon to be ex neighbor gets a bite."
"I cant wait. Listen I have to go in and rest. I have been working all day and Im quite tired. Good luck on your mission."
"thanks. Maybe we can go out to dinner and maybe catch up?"
"Sure. Just call me. you have my number"
Adam didnt even give her a chance to say she didnt have his number. He walked off and ran up his stairs to the comfort of his home. "that was easier than I thought it would be" he thought to himself.
adam ch3c
Adam kept his nights off busy by dating. He dated Anna Leive for a while but all she wanted was sex and lots of it. Adam didnt mind but he was getting tired of being caught in the phone booth. If he even mentioned any other activity she would flee from his side. He finally came to grasp that he was just her booty call as she was his. Funny how things have changed. Before Adam was shy but now he didnt mind having casual sex with girls especially Anna. When he finally got tired of her he gave her a break. He hated that she would become clingy and called him at all times of the day. She would leave suggestive messages on his machine but when he was not in the mood he would just press delete.
adam ch3d
On a brighter side, he did managed to keep contact with his friends and family via email. It was hard for him to see them often due to his time schedule. His last vacation was well over two years ago and that was with Kaylynn whom he now despised. He was happy to hear that his new neighbor had turned Kaylynn down. It had also been two years since his twin sister Adrienne passed away. Gerard, Adrienne fiancee, was busy running the hospital that his mother had ran for many years. He was happy to see that Gerard was happy. As Adam opened his email a smile came upon his face when he saw an email from his epal turned friend named Cara Nanale. They met on his vacation holiday to Twikki Island. She was a beautiful island girl that caught his eye but he was with Kaylynn so he didnt pursue it. They had written to each other and even exchanged pictures.
To his surprise she had written him requesting a day to see him. It turns out she was travelling to Viramontes to promote travel to Twikki Island. He was nervous but happy to see Cara again.
adam ch3e
When Cara saw Adam she was so excited. She had almost forgotten how gorgeous he looked. No matter what she had to keep focused on her job here in Viramontes. She was going to be here for a little over two weeks but her job was tourism to her island and not dating Adam. Adam too felt a little warm inside when he hugged Cara. He didnt expect her to be as beautiful if not more than when he saw her picture.

adam ch3f
They caught up on old times and the new. Cara loved Viramontes city and was happy to see that Adam was doing well. She imagined that he was due for a vacation so she managed to slip him a brochure. Unfortunately Cara was unable to see Adam due to both of their schedules being full with work related activies. Cara did managed to leave Adam a voicemail hoping to come back again and maybe spend more time with him.
adam ch3g
Marcos, Adam's older brother stopped by to see how his brother was doing. It was hard for Marcos to come out since he was now suddenly a single father. Adam still remembered when he heard that Linda left Marcos to join a band on tour. No matter what Marcos said Adam knew that he was still in love with Linda. Linda was his true love but Marcos would not touch that subject with a ten foot pole. Instead Adam mentioned how Cara came to visit and how he thought that there might be something there. Instead of receiving support from Marcos he instead got Marcos negative comments about the whole thing.
"Trust me Adam. Long distance relationships never work. Its bad enough having a relationship with some one here. Give yourself a chance. Im sure you will meet someone that doesnt live so far away."
Adam just hoped that his brother's bitterness would one day leave him.
adam ch3h
Adam followed Marcos advice somewhat. He stopped seeing Anna Leive all together. Adam wanted a serious relationship and he was not going to get it through booty calls. He therefore met and began dating Viola Parker. Viola was an executive at a marketing firm that the restaraunt hired for advertisement purposes. Viola caught his eye but sooner rather than later he lost interest. She was never available and when she was she would excuse herself a million times saying, "Im sorry I have to take this call". Adam got fed up and left Viola at the club. He figured she could call a cab on her cellphone.

adam ch3i
Adam came home one night and began emailing his sister Amarilis when a chat window from Cara popped up. They began chatting and finally Adam worked up the nerve to ask her to come for a visit. He would pay for everything but she didnt want to hear a word of it. She too had missed Adam and wanted to see him. They arranged a date for Adam to pick her up at the airport. Adam was more than excited to see Cara. He wanted to explore these feelings he had for her.
adam ch3j
This time when he saw Cara he was more nervous than usual. Cara herself felt nervous as well. They both knew they had chemistry together but they never acted on it. Before Cara knew it she was staring at his green eyes and being hypnotized by them.
adam ch3k
One thing lead to another and they were soon in his room making out. Cara loved feeling like a woman in Adam's arms. They both declared how they liked each other and how they both were attracted to one another. In between hugs and kisses they declared their love for each other. One didnt want to declare something before the other. They fell onto the bed and let their love flow from within them out. Adam made the most tender love to Cara and she felt as though she was walking on air.
adam ch3l
After a couple of weeks Cara knew and dreaded that it was her time to go back home. Adam and her had lived such a wonderful two weeks. The past two weeks were full of love, happiness, sex and joy. No matter how much she tried to convince herself it was just a fling she couldnt. She was not the type of girl to give herself to anyone. Now that she was no longer a virgin she would have to stop wearing her native Wreath and begin wearing the bindi. The bindi showed she was now a woman. Cara always imagined she would wear her bindi with her husband next to her but it would not be so. Sure she could lie to her village but that would only be lying to herself. She looked at the mirror and was amazed to see a grown woman staring back at her.
adam ch3m
Cara stepped out to wait for the cab that Adam had called to take her to the airport. It had been a while and she was amazed he had not called up to her. When she stepped on the front stoop she asked Adam where the cab was.
"There isnt going to be a cab."
"what? why not? Did you borrow a car?"
"No. I just want to ask you to stay with me. We will get married. I dont want to lose you or this. Cara what do you feel?"
Cara thought of a billion reasons not to do this. After all she had only lived with Adam for two weeks. But werent these two weeks pure bliss? She weighed the pros and cons and she finally said, "I have to go back home."
"You do? I mean Cara we can have so much more for us. I dont want to lose you."
"I have to go back home to ask to be transferred here. They offered me the position at our local embassy. I told them that I would give them the response when I returned."
"You little.. you had me scared that you were leaving me forever. Your not going home alone because Im going with you."
And with that Adam reserved his plane ticket to Twikki Island to gain the happiness that he so deserved.
