Jasmine POVI slowly got my consciousness back blinking my eyes to recognize where I was. "Mommy is waking up", I could hear the chirping sound of my babies. The smell of strong iodine and septic disinfectant filled my nostrils giving me the clue that I was in the hospital."I will go inform the nurse," Arianna left the room as I held my bandage head that still hurt.After a few minutes, my head readjusted and I finally registered the person sitting beside my bed. It was Asphalt. He looked stressed like he had missed his sleep for a year."Mommy, you are finally awake,""What took you so long to wake up," Emilia and Emil chorused in my face and I couldn't resist laughing. I brought their faces close, kissing their cheeks with my dried pale lips."What happened?," I directed to Asphalt holding my kids like my life depended on them. The hospital bed wasn't so big and they could fall if they were not careful enough."The flashlight at the studio had a fault and fell on you. You were imme

Janet POVAsphalt and I sat in the garden watching my kids chase after butterflies. As described, the garden was quiet and fascinating and peaceful. The flowers were arranged in a cubic form that gave a uniform look to it.I was enjoying the gentle breeze that caressed my face until Asphalt called my name," Jasmine," I paused looking forward to see if he was referring to the bluish flower in front of us."I know that you are Jasmine, Jazz, why did you lie to me all this while," he said looking at me."What do you mean?I'm not Jasmine. I don't know who you are referring to," I denied wanting to keep my identity secret.Right now, I was feeling a bit tense and uncomfortable. Asphalt knew who I was along but if I played a fool he might reconsider, right?."There is no use lying to me Jasmine," his tone changed to stern as he showed me an envelope. I took it from his hand and read its contents.It was a DNA test he had run on my kids. "You ran a DNA test on my kids?. You have no right to

Jazz povIt was finally Saturday the day I was designed to be discharged from the hospital. Even after our argument, Asphalt still remained by my side and that pissed me off. Now he was attempting to help me with my things but no matter how many times I pushed him away he would just sigh and do what he wanted."I will take you home Jazz since Arianna isn't around," he mentioned flinging my mini cloth bag over his shoulder."I don't need your help. I can flag a taxi down to take me home. So mind your business and stay away from me.I knew he was trying to take me home as an opportunity to start another intense argument about my babies. "I don't want you taking me home Mr Lavine," I told him but he gleaned, insisting I had no choice but to agree to his demand. He was still as domineering as ever.In the end, I sat in the passenger seat of his car frowning in my face in annoyance. The only reason I was facing this trash was because I don't have a driving license. And Arianna wasn't arou

Janet POVI downed my third glass of wine brooding with anger because of Asphalt's recent behaviors. He had spent a whole week away from us because of that damn Jazz."This is so annoying I wish I could crush that wench," I almost slammed my glass cup on the floor but Camila was fast enough to retrieve it from me."You should be careful Janet, you might get hurt if you get too irrational," Camila said, dropping the glass cup on the wine table in her garden.I decided to stay with my friends since Asphalt never came home. He was seriously freaking me out and making me really hate Jazz."I'm sure they are already fucking each other already. A woman like her would like to get her hands on diamonds. And Asphalt is a precious diamond that is pretty rare," Sarah blurted out the ugly truth.I caused the accident yet I was the one who got abandoned by my husband. He should look at only me and no one else!."I swear I will crush that woman she can't take wants mine and go scot free. It's about

Jazz povToday was a work free day for me. Instead of going out to a spa or a public relaxation center, I decided to spend my free time in my house with my kids.Taking the bag of chips Arianna and I had bought while shopping, I went to the living room to join my kids who were watching SpongeBob. The animation never got old especially when it comes to their ridiculousness. At my age I still find the series amusing.I adjusted my bum short to be able to sit comfortably on the couch without getting hooked on it. Ding dong!The doorbell rang and Emil ran to open the door "I will get it," he yells as he approaches the door. The kid was too energetic to compete with."Wow, flowers and gifts mommy," Emil gasped as he led the delivery man into the living room for me to sign.As I was signing the package, Arianna came into the sitting room with another bag of chips. "What's that?Who is the sender?," she asked, joining me on the couch." please can you give me the card Mr delivery man," Emil

Jazz povAfter the incident that happened last week with the little girl, Arianna constructed a plan of having me eat in private restaurants that had less customers. My fans were very eccentric and could harm someone without knowing but I was still grateful for them in a way."Mommy, are we having Japanese food today?. If so I would like to eat sushi or dumplings or catfish soup. There are a lot of japanese delicacies that I want to try," Emil jumped around excited with the choice Arianna had made for our lunch."Don't worry you will eat everything except sushi," I beamed, sushi was a one way food I won't allow my son to eat raw food."Can we hurry up already, I'm starving," Emilia patted her belly, stringing her hand with Emil as they walked into the restaurant.The restaurant had an embodiment of the Japanese atmosphere. It was classic yet modernly decorated, there were ancient paintings of dragons, tigers, serpent etc. These animals were ancient creatures that were said to be divin

Jacob POVI waited at the entrance of the restaurant instead of going away with my secretary. For some reason I wanted to see Jazz again. She was more beautiful than the photos I had seen her in and quite interesting too.At least, she was no trouble maker. Even when that woman had insulted her she didn't leash out instead it was her manager and that was really amazing to watch. "Oh, hey you are still here I thought you left already. Did you forget something?," I jolted from Jazz's voice. I didn't see her coming and right now I felt really nervous.My palms were sweaty and my heart was beating really fast like a teenage boy caught doing something mischievous."No, I didn't, I just waited to ask if it was okay for me to drive you and your kids back home," I offered, not wanting to miss the moment of staying with her a little."Oh, thanks. It's very kind of you to wait here because of me and my family. But we came here in our own car," her voice sounded so smooth and lovely like the so

Jazz POVToday was another cheerful day to make a proposition. I happily walked into the studio Arianna and I had started to handle my career issues. The place was extremely big and comfortable. We had made an exceptional plan for it because it was going to be a good reputation for my achievements.The hallway I passed through had my pictures hung on the wall with different purposes and events I had attended in the past.The studio was a huge building in a U shape. We had selected while in Caribbean and had it furnished before coming down to California. It has this touch of classy but tropical setting. There were floor to ceiling windows that gave a spectacular view, mini palm trees aligned in pretty ceramic pots and so on.It was more classy than other studios that handled celebrities and it was really flourishing in money. We had quality employees and managed some upcoming artists who seemed promising. "Good morning Ms Jazz," one of the employees greeted me as I walked past them.
