}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Maylenderton, Ophera}}

 

 

 

 

Ophera was born to John Harding, and Angela Olson of [[Moonlight Falls]], SimNation. The pair were never married, but raised Ophera together nonetheless.

 

Ophera moved in with Ronald and Thatcher to Thatcher's home in [[Twinbrook]]. Thatcher eventually became Mayor of the town, but decided to move to Hidden Springs after he was called upon by [[Catarina Vanderburg]] to help run her reelection campaign. Coincidentally, Ronald was just offered a luxurious job as a head chef at a restaurant in Hidden Springs, so he moved with him. Not wanting to give up her relationship with Ronald, Ophera decided to go with the two men, even though she already had a job in law enforcement and plenty of friends in town. Ronald chose a mint green mcmansion for their new home that greatly disgusted Ophera. Immediately after the move she and Ronald got married in a small ceremony with only a few people (including Thatcher) in attendance. She continued to rise slowly through the ranks in her Law Enforcement career, making best friends with her Partner, [[Sebastian Vanderburg]].

 

 

The first signs of her relationship with Ronald not working came way back when she first started college with him. Although she didn't go to college after her second semester, Ronald and Thatcher did. The two men rented a house together on campus and were seen bringing home dates each evening. Ronald could not stay committed to Ophera and cheated on her many times during his final two semesters in college. This led to Thatcher not speaking to Ronald during the entire duration of those semesters, as he was best friends with Ophera. Despite his anger at Ronald, Thatcher never told Ophera what went on during those two semesters, not even when they married 16 years later.

Ophera and Ronald relationship initially looked bright as he promised to never cheat on her again. He remained fully monogamous for over a year, but then went back to his old ways. He had a one night stand with the maid, Lucy, which Ophera found out about. Having had enough, Ophera finally filed for divorce, which was granted after less than four months. Having no place to go, she moved in with Thatcher, who agreed to sell his famous mock-tudor house so they wouldn't have to live directly in front of Ronald anymore. Immediately after the divorce, Ronald married Lucy and had two children with her.

 

 

Before her divorce, Ophera went to Thatcher for advice and the two (in the heat of the moment) ended up kissing. Ophera apologized and rushed back home, where she then filed for divorce from Ronald. She asked Thatcher if she could stay with him while the divorce was being finalized and he said yes. Five days after the divorce was finalized the two decided to go to Ronald's wedding to Lucy, which everyone thought was strange. Ophera, visibly uncomfortable, got drunk and ended up making out with Thatcher at the reception, but regretted it the next day.

When Ryan became a child, Thatcher began an affair with Jessica. The affair ended when Ophera joined politics as Jessica's secretary. A second affair five years later between the two resulted in the birth of Jessica and Thatcher's illegitimate child, Wesly, who was given up for adoption. Ophera never found out about these affairs, although she had her suspicions.

 

 

Soon after the wedding, an emergency election was put in place after the death a Catarina Vanderburg. Thatcher and his running mate, Jessica Colby, won the election, thus making Ophera the First Lady of Hidden Springs. A year and a half later she became pregnant with her first and only child, a boy named Ryan. Thatcher and Ophera then moved from their stately home of less than two years  to a craftsman home in the middle of town, unknowingly right nest to Jessica Colby. Ophera quit her job after Ryan's birth to teach him all his toddler skills. The two remained very close until her death. Thatcher taught Ryan to drive, but the two never really got along until Ryan became an adult.

Ophera had her suspicions in regards to Thatcher and Jessca's relationship. Instead of calling him out on it, she decided to join the political career as Jessica's secretary in order to keep an eye on the two. Ophera thought she was very observant, but failed to notice either of the two affairs that went on under her nose. She eventually rose to the position of Local Representative then died suddenly.

 

 

Ophera died of a heart attack after coming home from work. Her death left Thatcher devastated and was the main reason he moved in with Jessica Colby after she sold their Thatcher and Ophera's house. Thatcher then married Ophera's best friend [[Blake Grayson]], but divorced after less than a year. The death of Ophera caused further estrangement between now adult Ryan and Thatcher, but they made up before Ryan's first child, Thurgood was born. Thatcher eventually remarried Jessica and moved to Appaloosa Plains with her, Ryan, Ryan's wife Emily (Hunt) and their two children. They were married for 18 years before Thatcher's death. Thatcher never forgot Ophera and regretted having cheated on her multiple times. Ophera's death caused Thatcher to change his ways and he fully devoted himself to his grandchildren and wife, thus finally learning not to take things for granted.

* Ophera was pretty much the only "good" character of the second generation of the Maylenderton story. Thatcher and Ronald were serial cheaters, Ronald and his new wife, Lucy were very materialistic, Jessica Colby cheated on her husband with Thatcher and got pregnant with Thatcher's baby, along with being a major hypocrite. Ophera was none of these things and just wanted to be happy.

* Ophera was the second major sim to die before reaching Elder status, the first being Thatcher's mother, Diana.
