Re: Year Game
Year 0- Georgetown, Guyana
DH [27]: Dario Osvalso Rivera (curly blond hair, grey eyes, bassist)
DW [24]: Sita Pooja (Sharma) Rivera (wavy brown hair, brown eyes, chef)Dario and Sita live in Guyana. Dario has a little bit of everything in his bloodline, making him look rather unique. His grey eyes were what caught Sita's attention when she met him at the beach. Sita's family moved from Nepal when she was six so she has grown up in Guyana. Dario is a bassist and plays in a pretty popular band called Sodaim Me Noo (Sometimes I Know). Sita owns her own Nepali style restaurant, the one her parent's started and left to her. They met when Dario's band played at her restaurant. Sita loves music and Dario loves food, so they're a perfect match!Dario [27] and Sita [24]Year 1- Georgetown, Guyana
It's been a tough year financially for the Riveras, so Dario and Sita decide to renew their vows for their anniversary.Dario [28] and Sita [25]Year 2- Georgetown, Guyana
Sita gets bogged down in her work and needs to get excited about cooking again. She discovers the Japanese principle of ikigai and finds new purpose in her work.Dario [29] and Sita [26]Year 3- Georgetown, Guyana/Parika, Guyana

DS/DS [nb]: Čedomir Rajani & Pushpa Zacarías Rivera (curly brown hair, grey eyes)Dario and Sita decide their ready to have children, and they get two for the price of one! Meet Čedomir and Pushpa, identical twin boys. Dario is home more often than Sita and a schedule is erected: Dario cares for the boys during the day, and Sita is the one to get them at night. She wakes up every time they cry anyways. Čedomir and Pushpa are their parent's pride and joy. They get their curls and very unique eyes from Dario, who is proud to have passed the grey on. Their soft brown locks are Sita's, making them easily recognizable as hers. In other news, the Georgetown hustle and bustle was too much for the two young parents so they move to Parika, which is quite close to Georgetown but far enough to give them some peace. Sita starts her family restaurant anew there, as the commute is too much for her. It picks up popularity fast. Dario still drives to Georgetown for his band practices and such.Dario [30] and Sita [27] with Čedomir [nb] and Pushpa [nb]Year Four- Parika, Guyana

DS/DS [1]: Čedomir Rajani & Pushpa Zacarías Rivera (curly brown hair, grey eyes)
DD/DS [nb]: Ana Sita & Prashant Urbano Rivera (straight brown hair, grey eyes / curly brown hair, grey eyes)Once again, Dario and Sita try for a baby, and once again, they get two for the price of one. Meet daughter Ana Sita and son Prashant. They have brown hair like their siblings, Ana Sita's being straight and Prashant's curly, and both have grey eyes. Dario's contract with his current band ends, but a new band, a more popular band, wants him to sign on. His pay will be more so he takes the job. Sita is very happy that he's been "promoted" since they have four children to care for. The older boys sometimes go to work with Sita, while Dario is still on daycare duty.Dario [31] and Sita [28] with Čedomir [1], Pushpa [1], Ana Sita [nb], and Prashant [nb]Year Five- Parika, Guyana

DD [nb]: Marina Ysabel Rivera (wavy blonde hair, brown eyes)Another baby is tried for, and this time only one ends up happening. Meet Marina, the first Rivera child to have blonde hair and brown eyes. Both sets of twins look at her strangely for a while, but soon realize she looks like Dario so she is NOT an alien creature. Now the hassle is more than ever, with five children, none of which are school age. Sita is bringing the older boys to work even more now, while Dario handles the youngers at home.Dario [32] and Sita [29] with Čedomir [2], Pushpa [2], Ana Sita [1], Prashant [1], and Marina [nb]Year Six- Parika, Guyana

DW [30]: Sita Pooja (Sharma) Rivera (wavy brown hair, brown eyes, electronic technician)Sita gets tired of the restaurant business again but is able to quit this time. Her brother has taken over the original restaurant and a very good chef that she mentored is ready to take over the Parika branch. She decides to become an electronics technician. She has her associates degree for this, as a fallback if the restaurant failed. Sita must be recertified but her new career soon takes off. She is not her own boss anymore which is a pretty big change. She must travel for some of her work and so Dario has the kids more often.Dario [33] and Sita [30] with Čedomir [3], Pushpa [3], Ana Sita [2], Prashant [2], and Marina [1]Year Seven- Paika, Guyana/Georgetown, Guyana
The family must move back to Georgetown for Sita's new job. The commute from Parika was too much, plus much of the family lives there. They dine at the Sharma family restaurant on occasion to catch up with Sita's brother. The kids are in awe of the large city. Čedomir and Pushpa are in preschool now, taking a heavy load off of Dario who now has more freedom for his music and band.Dario [34] and Sita [31] with Čedomir [4], Pushpa [4], Ana Sita [3], Prashant [3], and Marina [2]Year Eight- Georgetown, Guyana

DD [nb]: Hira Vedrana Rivera (wavy blonde hair, green eyes)Dario and Sita decide they could try for another child now that both sets of twins are in some form of school, and they gain another daughter. Now the boys and the girls are even. Marina is rather put out at not being the youngest anymore, but she soon warms up to Hira. Maybe it's because Hira has blonde hair as well. She is also they only person in the family to have green eyes. This year, the Riveras spend Christmas with the Sharmas. It's a family reunion because all the Sharma siblings come. The kids get to meet all of their first cousins, some for the first time. The Riveras have a great time.Dario [35] and Sita [32] with Čedomir [5], Pushpa [5], Ana Sita [4], Prashant [4], Marina [3], and Hira [nb]Year Nine- Georgetown, GuyanaDario and Sita try for another child, but are unsuccessful. Dario only has little Hira to keep him in constant company. Prashant gets a nasty stomach bug right before school starts, missing much of his first month of kindergarten. He catches up quickly, but is bullied and treated as the stupid kid because of his initial missing. Sita's heart breaks for her boy, but Dario says he must learn to deal with it (up to a point) and prove them wrong. Ana Sita tries to defend her brother, but Dario encourages her to watch and step in when necessary to avoid teaching Prashant to be dependent on her. Prashant soon excels in class, reading at a high level and able to multiply and divide. Now no one calls him stupid!Dario [36] and Sita [33] with Čedomir [6], Pushpa [6], Ana Sita [5], Prashant [5], Marina [4], and Hira [1]Year Ten- Georgetown, Guyana

DD/DD [nb]: Ena Laxmi & Drishti Nina Rivera (curly blonde hair, brown eyes / wavy blonde hair, grey eyes)A surprise set of girls! Ena Laxmi & Drishti Nina, fraternal girls. Drishti is the first child to have grey eyes since the second twins. Both girls have blonde hair, a seeming trend. Ana Sita is the only daughter without blonde hair. Ena Laxmi is the first child to have curly hair since the second twins. Dario once again is in full SAHD mode, but still has quite enough energy for music, unlike when there were five babies at once. Hira is fascinated with her baby sisters. Sita is spending less time at home now, under a lot of stress at work. She's also taking extra hours, but Dario doesn't resent her. He knows she escapes through work.Dario [37] and Sita [34] with Čedomir [7], Pushpa [7], Ana Sita [6], Prashant [6], Marina [5], Hira [2], Ena Laxmi [nb], and Drashti [nb]Year Eleven- Georgetown, Guyana

-DD [3]: Hira Vedrana Rivera (wavy blonde hair, green eyes)Dario and Sita divorce! Sita was too stressed with family and work life. Dario is confused and a little betrayed, but the seperation is amicable. They explain to the children what is happening. The older twin sets immediately start questioning it, Marina bursts into tears, Hira declares "Everyone needs hugs!" and Ena Laxmi and Drashti... are still asleep. Sita moves closer to her parents. The Rivera kids are in shared custody, but to make it easier on the family are split into halves. The older twin sets are split up, Dario taking Pushpa and Ana Sita, Sita taking Čedomir and Prashant. Sita also takes the two singles. Dario is the best with kids, so the babies go to him. For six months the siblings stay with the one parent, seeing each other at their maternal grandparents' house on the weekends, then Sita takes Dario's and vice versa. The whole family sees each other at Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Dario also starts giving bass lessons to compensate for his low-for-four-kids pay.Dario [38] and Sita [35] with Čedomir [8], Pushpa [8], Ana Sita [7], Prashant [7], Marina [6], Hira [3], Ena Laxmi [1], and Drashti [1]Year Twelve- Georgetown, Guyana

-DS [nb]: Wilson Rishi Rivera (curly brown hair, brown eyes)Dario adopts a boy from Ethiopia named Lencho. Pushpa had been complaining about being surrounded by girls all the time, and so voila. Lencho is a good deal older than Pushpa, though. Lencho had a bit of a hard time learning the Guyanian culture and how to decipher the Creole, but he knows English so he adapted quickly. Pushpa looks up to his brother a lot, learning the hardships he came from. The other Rivera kids quickly accept Lencho, giving him a tour of Baaje and Bajyai's house upon their first meeting.A few months earlier, Sita had been chatting with Dario's younger brother, salesman Adalberto "Adal" Rivera. With the kids all at some form of school, it gets lonely at home. Long story short, it ended up being romantic and they've had a son, Wilson. Dario's first four actually get the baby news first, while Sita's first four get the boyfriend news. The family dynamic is a bit awkward now, with a half-sibling/cousin and whatnot, but Dario claims he's happy for Sita (while internally he's seething with rage butthat'sbesidesthepoint MOVING ON).Dario [39] and Sita [36] with Čedomir [9], Pushpa [9], Ana Sita [8], Prashant [8], Marina [7], Hira [4], Ena Laxmi [2], and Drashti [2]

-DD/DD [nb]: Amita Guiomar & Eugénia Suman Rivera (curly red hair, grey eyes / curly black hair, green eyes)Dario and Čedomir get into an argument over what the family has for dinner. Dario lets Lencho pick, but Čedomir complains he never gets to eat Guyanian food unless Adal is over at Sita's and she never lets any of them pick dinner. Dario is appalled, but says that Sita is mixed up right now. Čedomir asks why, and Dario responds by asking what he wants for dinner.Adal and Sita are engaged, and have twin girls. Amita gets red hair, meaning Adal has a gene Dario doesn't, and Eugénia has black hair, something no natural born Rivera child has. All the kids are apathetic to the Adal Rivera three, except Ena Lazmi and Drashti, who are too young to tell any difference between their half-siblings/cousins and their siblings. Tension runs between Dario and Adal, who were quite close for their age gap before this ordeal.Dario [40] and Sita [37] with Čedomir [10], Pushpa [10], Ana Sita [9], Prashant [9], Marina [8], Hira [5], Ena Laxmi [3], and Drashti [3]
