Step 4 (Our Life: Beginnings & Always)

Step 4 is the fourth Step of Our Life: Beginnings & Always. Unlike other previous Steps, Step 4 doesn't have Moments. Instead the game continues to have a long epilogue to the chosen storyline.
==Introduction==
Step 4 starts after 5 years has passed since Step 3 and the Main Character and their friends are approximately 23 or 24 years old. During this time they have moved away from their childhood homes and gotten careers (or are pursuing one).
==In Between==

==Epilogue options==
<tabber>Cove=
Cove's epilogue is the only one available without DLC's. It focuses on Main Character and Cove visiting Noelani and Pamela for their anniversary. Later on they meet up with Terry, Miranda and Derek to hang out.
If this epilogue is played and Main Character and Cove are engaged at the end of the epilogue, the player will have access to Cove's Wedding DLC (assuming that player owns the DLC).
|-|Derek=
Derek's epilogue comes as a part of Derek's DLC. To access this epilogue player also needs to play all Derek's DLC content during Step 2 and stay in contact with him later on. 
This epilogue focuses on Main Character and Derek meeting again after a long time apart. They celebrate Father's Day together with his family (and Cliff, if MC has that kind of relationship with him).
|-|Baxter=
Baxter's epilogue is part of Baxter's DLC and just like Derek's epilogue, all Baxter's extra Moments needs to be played in order to have access to this epilogue.
In this epilogue Baxter appears again when he, by pure chance, ends up being Miranda's big brother Jude and his husband's wedding planner. Main Character is part of the wedding planning party and has to work with Baxter. Depending on how they parted apart at the end of Step 3, their relationship is either icy, neutral or even warm.</tabber>
