She give Elise a small smile."Thank you for the understanding and also for taking care of Jacob!"
"Oh if you want he can stay with us more!?!!" Elise said looking at Jace.
"No, mom! Maybe some other time!" Jace said and shrugged his shoulder.
"Fine! But next time I want both Tara and Jacob to do a sleepover with us!" Elise said and crossed her arms on her chest. Just like Tara used to do.

Arianne nodded and went to the microwave on one corner and reheat Tara's food. There's mushroom soup, creamy carbonara and a slice of pizza.

"Mom?" Jace asked his mother but it seems like she is in another dimension right now. "Yes honey?" Elise then said after she came back from her reverie. "I'm just asking you your reason for this unexpected visit?" Jace said casually. Elise sighed as she remember her purpose in coming over. "Your dad is getting agitated about your situation especially in legal aspect." "Mom, you and dad worry too much! Didn't I told him already not to get involve on that aspect? Besides, I'm still at the process of trying to figure out a way or a solution to my problem." "How can you expect us to keep silent about this Jace?

With a heavy heart I turn to Taylor and told them to put an extra eye and protection to my woman and our children. He patted me on my shoulder. "Just do what you need to do son!

Arianne's POV I woke up with a weird feeling. I remember last night that I was feeling great after exchanging text messages to Jace before I went to sleep. But right now, I can't explain how I really feel. I feel sad and nervous. I feel like I wanna cry without knowing why. To think that my mom is already gone out of this world. Oh my god! I wanted to call the hospital and check for my dad but it's still early maybe a little later then. Seeing the time on my phone, it's just 5:20 in the morning. Maybe even Jace is still sleeping soundly by now. Knowing fully well that I cannot sleep any longer, I went to the bathroom and took a warm shower. Then after, I decided to make breakfast for me and my twins. I took my time preparing for it was still early and there's no need to hurry.

When she open the room, she found Riza on the couch reading a magazine. She greeted her and went to kiss her dad's cheek who is not that pale anymore. "So I can see your patient is having a color now huh?" she said smiling at Riza. Riza got up of the couch and gave her a bottled water from the fridge on the corner. "Yeah! I think he wants to wake up already but nobody knows when maybe even him doesn't know!?!!" Riza smile while looking at James with twinkling eyes. Her dad is such a lucky man for finding and having Riza. Arianne thought to herself. Riza filed for an indefinite leave in the office and never dare to leave James' side all throughout. She just hope that her dad would propose and marry Riza when he gets up out of that bed. Arianne don't know much about Riza but upon
