The meat truck took him back to Sunlit Tides
He looked longingly out the window as they passed the newspaper business. He’s halfway to getting his degree, halfway to starting his dream career.
He filled out the test from the kit again, and got granted a bit more of a scholarship this time.
He didn’t notice his neighbour coming up the street from somewhere to go to her home.
Cecilia Rock stopped and took a good look at Wilfred’s behind over the hill.
“What is he doing? And there’s nothing there” she thought.
Her mum and aunt arrived after her, they must have all been on a Sunday outing.
“That’s an interesting chap for our daughters” said Marsha. “He’s got nothing” Patricia told her.
“Looks like he’s moving out anyway” said Patricia, as Wilfred’s university meat truck picked him up again to go back for his third stint.

“Slow poke roommates again” Wilfred sighed.
During his previous life in Lucky Palms, Wilfred made an effort to befriend the Jocks in the first couple of stints. In the third stint the game seemed to recognise this and all of his new roommates were Jocks, by the game’s hand. He’s not done that this time, he’s focusing on building skills and book royalties. He can just buy Jock status with his happiness points.
“Oh well, best get to it. Round three” he told himself.
