Karma: Beautiful Soul Chapter 01

Read the “About” page to learn more on how Karma came to be.

Meet Karma Allan. She just moved to a new neighbourhood to start a new life. She was born disfigured in the face, but she has a big caring heart. Her sister was born very pretty and never had a hard time in her life. Karma on the other hand always had to work extra hard on everything she did. People either stared at her or ignored her altogether. They were making her feel inhuman, like some sort of monster. But Karma was no monster. The few that took the time to get to know her didn’t regret it.

It wasn’t bad enough that she was born with extremely large eyes, but when she turned sideways her nose was nonexistent. That’s what bothered her the most about her facial disfigurement. She’d heard so many jokes about her nose that she was sick of them. Not to mention nose picking remarks.

She just bought a big beautiful house in a quiet neighbourhood.  She didn’t like how the inside was laid out, but she would change it to her liking in time. The price had been hard to beat so she had jumped at the chance. Now she would be saving to have plastic surgery. She was doing research on it while saving money, trying to find a good doctor who could help her.

She’d always been very playful. She was like a child at heart. She could find fun in anything. Living alone she felt unjudged and enjoyed herself freely.

She’s always had a drive to learn. She can spend hours reading and learning new things. That’s why she’s hoping to get a job in the education career in this new neighbourhood. She has so much knowledge to share.

She looked through the job section in the paper and called for an interview. She didn’t want to get her hopes up, but she did get the job. They were impressed with her knowledge and charismatic ways. They told her they would test her out.

She loved making friends, so when Gyll started being friendly to her, she was so happy. They had a lot in common and enjoyed chatting together for hours. He was also new in the neighbourhood and worked at a restaurant. He was shy and a bit eccentric.

She invited him over for lunch one day. She wasn’t much of a cook and made him promise to make her a good dinner one day. He agreed and started planning on it.

Gyll often dropped by or called her. He was so shy that he would ask her advice on how to treat the customers at work, he told her she had a gift of making people feel at ease. He admitted that he had trouble getting close to people, but with her he felt he’d known her all his life.

Gyll had often touched her hand and given her friendly hugs. He was such a beautiful man that she had never allowed herself to think of him being more than a friend. But one night he put his arm around her shoulder and drew her closer to him. She had no idea what to make of it.

“I have been wanting to kiss you for a long time now.” He admitted shyly.

“Are you making fun of me?” She blurted out. Maybe he had a bet going on with some friends just to make fun of her.

“I didn’t mean to offend you… I’m sorry. I would never make fun of you.” He stammered. “I just like you so much.” He blushed.

It happened so quick. Karma’s head was spinning as they kissed. She had never kissed a man before and it was even better than she had ever imagined. He held her warmly and drew her closer as they kissed.

Karma was rarely speechless, but after that kiss she was. He teased her about it being the first time he saw her shy.

“I’ve never kissed a guy before.” She admitted.

“What have I done to be so blessed to be the first one?” He said as he continued to hold her. “Can I come again tomorrow to cook you a nice dinner?” Of course she wanted to see him again, now more than ever. She had never allowed herself to think of dating, and now here she was being held by such a sweet and handsome man. She told herself she would just enjoy the fling. He was new in the neighbourhood and probably bored and needed a little fun. Just the same, she agreed to see him again the next day.

She had trouble sleeping that night. She couldn’t stop reliving her close moments spent with Gyll. She wondered if he’d even call her again.

He did call. And he did drop by to fix her a nice meal. When he arrived, he gently kissed her and told her he had thought of her all day. He made her the nicest meal she had ever eaten. But then again she could have eaten Kraft Dinner and she would have thought it was the best.

She had the best night of her life. He swept her off her feet, literally. They danced, kissed, cuddled, and talked for hours. They couldn’t get enough of each other.

After he left, Karma got on the computer and Emailed her friend. She had to tell someone about Gyll or she would burst. Her friend Emailed her back to tell her to be cautious, he could be thinking she had a lot of money or out to con her in some way. She tried to keep a level head, she knew her friend meant well and she could be right. But her heart felt that he was sincere.

She woke up to find flowers on her doorstep from Gyll. Thanking her to have let him in her life and heart. He then came by and proposed marriage to her. He said he couldn’t stop thinking about her and felt his best whenever he was around her. He told her he was head over heals in love and asked if she’d marry him.

“Gyll, I still think I am dreaming.” She said nervously but happily.

“So do I.” He said. “And if I am, please don’t wake me.”

They had a small wedding ceremony outside with Karma’s friend.

They talked for a while afterwards, but Gyll couldn’t keep his eyes off of his new wife.

He later surprised Karma when a limo came by to pick them up. He promised her a beautiful honeymoon. She couldn’t help but feel like Cinderella and she feared loosing a shoe as she ran towards the limo.

But she didn’t loose a shoe and she wasn’t dreaming. They had a wonderful honeymoon, spending every minute together. Making love and talking till dawn.

  1. Gyll's a bit cheesy, and I agree with Karma's friend, he's too good to be true, but guess we'll have to wait and see. BTW, how long did it take for their relationship to develop (not sim time, but the story timeline)?

  2. I would say a couple of weeks after their first kiss they were married. Some people rush in. I am sorry if the story is odd, I am very amateur at writing stories, but I am having fun doing it so far.
