Tim and Ariel's Wedding

The wedding day arrived! Just in time, cause Ariel is pregnant, but whatever, she and Tim are happy, and are Harold and Sam, Tim's fathers.

Sonja shares their happiness, only Ethan hasn't digested the idea, you should see his face at the beginning of 

Everyone applauds the newly weds. Ethan doesn't show it, but deep inside he shares their happiness.

Everybody to celebrate! Ethan is finally clapping. Sonja can't stop throwing rice.

Tim and Ariel are going to cut the wedding cake.

Ariel does the honors.

Ethan enjoyed his piece of cake while chatting with Natalie Landgraab, who had just arrived from work.

That same evening, Natalie and Alexander went steady. Everyhing seems to indicate that soon there will be yet another wedding in Sunset Valley.

Harold and Sam celebrate their son's wedding by dancing together in the kitchen.

Tim and Ariel, on their way to their new home.

Tim is in the Sports career, Ariel gives dance lessons. She's on maternity leave now, but they're both doing well in their jobs, they surely won't have problems when the baby arrives.

Alexander is going home happy, he's about to start a new life too with his beloved Natalie.

Tim's Proposal

Ariel just got out from work and is going back home in his father's old motorcycle.

Tim run with all his might to arrive on time and have dinner with her.

He has been very anxious because of what happened with Phillip and Natalie. He doesn't want the same to happen to him and Ariel.

But that's not likely since Ariel is very sure about her love for Tim.

Finally, the big day arrived. Tim forgot his anxiety and proposed marriage to Ariel.

"Ariel Bunch, would you marry me?"

"Of course I'll marry you, Tim Langerak".

Well, it's done. Soon there will be another wedding in Sunset Valley.

Natalie's Dilemma - Part 2

It's Phillip's birthday! All his roomies are there to celebrate.

Phillip makes a wish... 

Doris thinks she knows what that wish is. Anyway,  Phillip became an adult.

And yes, his wish came true. Natalie accepted to be his girlfriend.

They seem so much in love! It's a dream come true for Phillip and the end of poor Doris' illusions, Natalie is so happy that she doesn't seem to care about anything.

 

A picture for the memory album...

That was the beginning of what promised to be a long lasting relationship.

Natalie's Dilemma - Part 1

Since in those days it was not yet possible for everyone to go to university, a few young adults from Sunset Valley decided to leave their parents to work and look for success in their jobs. That was how Ariel Bunch, Tim Langerak, Alexander Goth, Phillip Bachelor and the Landgraab twins, Natalie and Doris, moved into an apartment together.

 

Everything went smoothly for a while, until a problem emerged: both Alexander and Phillip fell in love with Natalie.

It was a true dilemma para Natalie, cause she liked Phillip a lot, but she also had feelings for Alexander.

Alexander was her best friend, the one who always listened to her, who cheered her up when she felt sad. And you could tell he was crazy for her.

Natalie didn't want to hurt Alexander's feelings, cause she really cared about him, and loved him, but her attraction to Phillip grew stronger every day.

Alexander was aware of Natalie's doubts, and the situation turned to be so awkward that he seriously considered moving out.

Natalie got in trouble with her sister Doris, cause she was in love with Phillip too, and thought that Natalie was only playing with him. The wisest thing to do for Natalie would've been picking Alexander and leave Doris and Phillip be happy, but, unfortunately for everyone, that wasn't the case.

Cristina Bunch, in her Youth

Cristina and Ari's Wedding

Cristina Bunch at last revelaed who his secret lover was: no less than Ari Keaton, the son of Justine and Marty Keaton (may they rest in peace). Ethan wasn't happy at all cause Ari is much older than Cristina, he could be her father! But she's very much in love with him, so she doesn't care.

Sonja doesn't mind the age thing, she's just happy to see Cristina happy, cause, just like Ethan, she loves her as if she was her own child.

Before their cheerful guests, Cristina and Ari make their wedding vows and exchange rings.

During the ceremony, the guests could notice that another member of the Bunch and Keaton families is on its way.  One more of the many surprises Cristina had for them. Her sister Ariel (her cousin really) is in the first row, applauding to the top of her lungs.

Cristina and Ari are husband and wife, now let's celebrate!

Ethan (right) seems resigned, all he wants is for Cristina to be happy. Ah, if her mother could see her! But sadly, it was all so rushed that it was impossible for him to locate Lisa and notify her.

But anyway, Cristina is happy. And she has the obsession for finding her biological parents now that she's going to have a family of her own.

Ethan loves her as if she was his own child, so he has no other option but to celebrate with her.

Ari and Cristina Keaton, enjoying their wedding cake.

The baby is coming! Cristina and Ari hardly had time to prepare for its arrival.

Back home with the baby, they called her Stacey. Luckily, a few days earlier, Ari was able to buy a crib and give the house a hand. Now it looks much more cozy.

It's the same house where Harold and Pauline Langerak lived before, with a nice and refreshing view of the Old Pier Beach.

Cristina is beaming and ready to enjoy her new family life. But she still wonders, where could her real parents be? Do they know about her existance? Do they care? Well, why worry about that now that a life of love and happinnes awaits for her next to Ari and little Stacey?

It's Ethan's Birthday!

It's Ethan Bunch's birthday. Today he'll become an elder. Cristina is here to celebrate with him, Ariel is still in school but she'll join later.

Now he's the same age as Sonia, who celebrated her birthday a few days before him.

Now both are seniors, but they're still as much in love as the day they met.
