Stop desire

Round 17: May 2027


(Cal and Elissa are 65, Nyah is 41, Brooke is 35 and Lilly is 22.)


Narrated by Josh.

I moved to Exmoor after graduation. Lilly used to live in this building too but she bought herself a little house in Allerdale right after graduation. Can you believe it, a 22-year-old with their own house! Not that I blame her. It's close to her workplace and to be honest, this part of the neighbourhood is not very nice or safe. I don't mind so much though. It's not like I'm planning to stay here forever either. I'm just trying to save up money so that I can't get my own studio some day. The apartment is really tiny and there's not much entertainment apart from reading books.

Running out

Round 16: July 2026


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 64.
(Stella is 62, Brady is 7 and Tate is 5.)


Narrated by Elissa.

Cal and I are finally in the clear after years and years of financial struggles. To me the biggest luxury is to be able to pay the rent without worries and help our children if they need something. Dining at the finest restaurants is a nice bonus but being stress-free is the best thing.

Flake

Round 15: May 2024


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 62.


Narrated by Cal Cooper.

I got the flu this spring and it felt like I would never get better. Secretly I kind of enjoy lounging all day in my pajamas but I know Elissa was getting worried that I'd need to go to the hospital. Luckily we have a doctor in the family and Grace assured me - and Elissa - that it was just a regular flu and that I just needed to rest.

Push the button

Round 14: Winter 2022


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 60 and Josh is 17.
(Lilly is 17.)


Narrated by Josh Cooper

It's my last year in high school and I'm working my butt off. I usually stay up quite late to finish my homework because I don't have the time to do it before heading off to work. All my hard work has paid off though because not only was I accepted into Brixton University but I also got five scholarships!

Show me

Round 13: Autumn 2020


Ben Cooper is 42, Denise is 34, Riley is 10, Liam is 8 and Brady is 1.
(Ryland and Jackie are 69, Cal and Elissa are 58.)


Narrated by Denise Cooper.

Ben was very busy at work during summer because his boss Bobbie took some time off after her sister's death. She got back to work recently and said that she might as well have stayed away because Ben was doing such a good job. I'm seeing this as a sign that she's thinking of retirement which would make Ben the head of the architect office. Ben tells me that I'm just imagining but I know that he wouldn't mind being the boss.

The other side

Round 13: Autumn 2020


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 58 and Josh is 15. 
(Ben is 42 and Lilly is 15.)


Narrated by Josh Cooper.

Lilly and I have been dating for about two years now and I'm more than ready to take the next step. Unfortunately she seems quite happy just holding hands and watching tv together. I've brought up the subject of sex and she always says she's not ready but I've figured that maybe she'll give in if I keep trying. It feels like everyone else is doing it and I'm still a virgin.

Precious

Round 13: Spring 2019


Janie Greene is 25, Danny Cooper is 23 and Bridget Greene-Cooper is 1.


Narrated by Danny Cooper

I've been slaving off at the faculty building this spring, taking extra courses in drawing and painting. My GPA dropped to 2.9 thanks to my slacking off and I really want to raise it before graduating.

If it comes from my heart

Round 12: Summer 2018


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 56 and Josh is 13.
(Lilly is 13.)


Narrated by Josh Cooper

Lilly's been my girlfriend for a few months now. It all kind of started last summer when we kissed for the first time but then she got grounded and I wasn't allowed to see her for a long time.

We've been seeing each other a lot during this summer. We usually meet at Generation X because it's so close to our homes.

Venus as a boy

Round 12: Spring 2017

Janie Greene is 23 and Danny Cooper is 21.


Narrated by Danny Cooper

Janie and I rented a house together on campus. She got a job at the Dean's office although she's constantly looking for a job in the business world. So far living together has been great. We spent practically every moment together even when we were still living at the dorm so it's not that big of a change.

Heart-shaped box

Round 11: Spring 2016


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 54 and Josh is 11.
 (Sam is 38, Grace is 33, Danny is 20, Madelyn and Ross are 5, James is 3 months .)


Narrated by Elissa Cooper.

I can tell Josh is getting closer to puberty as he seems to enjoy spending time alone in his room and doesn't want to play on the playground anymore. He's always playing with that PSP that he got from Danny.

Chasing pirates

Round 10: Summer 2014


Sam Cooper is 36, Grace is 31 and Madelyn and Ross are 3.


Narrated by Sam Cooper

We were all so shocked when we heard the news of Olivia's death. Grace took it pretty hard especially since she hasn't been in touch with her family very much during the past few years. The saddest thing is that our kids will never really get to know their nana Olivia because they only met her a couple of times and are probably too small to remember her.

New born

Round 10: Winter 2014


Cal and Elissa Cooper are 52, Danny is 18 and Josh is 9.
(Liv is 16 and Riley is 4.)


Narrated by Danny Cooper

I saw dad checking the real estate agency's website one day. He noticed me and asked me how I'd feel if we moved. I said I don't really care since I'll be moving out soon anyway. I already know I probably won't be going to college since mom and dad can't afford to pay for my tuitions. It's not like I have big career plans but I still would've loved to get a proper education.

Wish I could fly

Round 9: Autumn 2012


Cal Cooper and Elissa are 50, Danny is 16 and Josh is 7.
(Janie is 18.)


Narrated by Danny Cooper.

I've been spending a lot of time with Janie lately. We get along so well - I haven't told her about kissing Liv though. I don't know why I kissed Liv. I mean we've always been friends but I don't even think about her that way.

Can't change me

Round 7: 2005-2008


Narrated by Elissa Cooper.

We had another boy and named him Joshua, Josh for short. I was kinda hoping for a girl since we already had three boys but I'm not disappointed. We have a beautiful healthy baby and that's the most important thing.

Supermassive black hole

Round 6: 2001-2004


Narrated by Sam Cooper.

Ever since Ben went to college I've been feeling a bit lonely. It's not like we were joined at the hip but twins have that special connection. I wanted to go to college too but I didn't get enough scholarships.

Rock on, Rudy

Round 5: 1996-2000


Sam's girlfriend Grace is a regular guest at the dinner table in the Cooper residence. Elissa doesn't mind though - she's happy that her son has found a nice girl. In fact she wishes that Ben would bring his girlfriend over sometime too.
