Enrique RomĆ”n DĆaz for @legendofsimāās Paradise BC
IT WAS MUCH MORE CHALLENGING THAN I ANTICIPATED TO MAKE A SIM WITHOUT USING ANY CC SLIDERS, BUT HERE WE ARE! I LOVE HIM. Now, without further ado because Iām already one of the last to submit their sim (eep!), hereās more about Enrique:
Age: 25
Traits: Loves To Swim, Heavy Sleeper, Nurturing, Loves the Heat, Sailor
Favorites: Green, Ceviche, and Island Music
Personality: Responsible, a bit serious at first glance, but quick to warm and friendly. Loves to laugh and lives in the moment. Optimistic, but somewhat wary. You never know what life may next have in store for you.
Bio:Ā Enrique was born to parents who loved one another with a love that most only hear about in fairy tales. No matter what the family enduredāincluding a hurricane that wiped out their home and had them moving from the Dominican Republic to Paradise Isles when he was only 7 years oldāhis parentsā love and optimistic outlook on life carried them forward to brighter days.
It seemed that nothing could shake them, until one stifling summer afternoon when Enrique was 15 years old and his father collapsed, never waking again. A fatal heart attack that no one saw coming, especially not his mother, whose plans for the future were inextricably woven with the man she loved more than life itself. Shattered, his mother withdrew deeply into a darkness she could not rouse herself from, and it fell to Enrique, the eldest sibling to two younger siblings, to look after them all.
Enrique had quite a reputation in high school for being utterly lazy, constantly sleeping through classes and scraping Cās by the skin of his teeth, but in truth he was always tired because he picked up a cleaning job at the local luxury resort, wiping sticky cocktail spills off tables until well into the night to make enough for the family to get by.
After graduating, he put all his focus into supporting them, even picking up a second job lifeguarding to make ends meet. Slowly though, in little steps and with lots of encouragement, Enriqueās mother gradually improved, to the point where she was able to work again, and Enrique was able to take more time to focus on himself and what he wants out of life.
Perhaps needless to say, he isnāt sure. Learning to be a bit selfish has been harder than he anticipated, and though heās spent many hours on the beach or sailing on his own at sea, all this time for introspection hasnāt brought him any closer to an answer. He likes lifeguarding well enough, but despite knowing he doesnāt want to do this for the rest of his life, heās unsure what heād rather pursue.Ā
As for romance, Enrique has dated some, but no one has ever stuck. Part of him feels like maybe heās spoiled and heās looking for a love like the love his parents had for each other. Another part of him feels, however, that maybe heās afraid....Ā
Heās seen firsthand what love can do to a person when itās lost, but maybe...with the right person...he could take the risk.
I really hope you like him and thank you so much for letting me participate and for being so patient!!!! Iām excited to see where Kennedyās story will go and how all these awesome contestants will cross her future path :)
