“I know that you can hear me because every time I tell you about your kids, you move. So why do you refuse to wake up?” Chris asked without taking his sight off Jackson.
When he got no response, he breathed a sign of misery, one he had been holding in since he first arrived.
Then Chris's fingers tapped the table in unison with the rhythm of his feet as his bright eyes surveyed the room, knowing that he was slowly giving up on hope since so far his plan didn’t seem to be working on Jackson.
Even though Chris understood that an important task had been placed on his shoulders to keep Jackson up-to-date with the latest news about Miya and the kids, he felt overwhelmed by it all.
All heads turned to the right when they heard the sound of a male shoe stepping on th

The atmosphere in the room quickly shifted as Jackson gazed at Chris like he was the biggest fool that he had ever seen.“Did you hit your head or something?” Jackson asked with a dead serious look on his face.“No,” Chris replied as confusion settled in his eyes, then he loudly chuckled when he understood the question.“If that's so, then why are you talking gibberish?”“Gibberish? Uhh, is that how I sound?”“Yes.”“Well, I'll be on my way then.”With a smirk on Chris’s lips, he turned around and slowly walked to the door with his hands resting in his pocket.“Wait!” Jackson shouted, feeling more stupid for falling for such words.“Yes,” Chris mysteriously said after turning away from the door to face Jackson.“Let's say, I believe you.

As the morning light creeped into the room, it met Jackson awake, fully dressed, and standing by the window, staring at the busy streets.“How are you feeling today, Mr. David.” Doctor Daniel asked as he shut the room door behind him.Then his eyes stared in shock at empty bed, and with fear in his voice, he anxiously gazed at Jackson and said, “Mr. David, I don't think it is wise for you to remove the wires from on your body since they are for monitoring your health conditions.”A frowned surfaced on Jackson's lips as he turned around to face Doctor Daniel, then his index finger smoothly rubbed against his cheek while his cold gaze settled on the d

Then she reached into the car and picked up her son from in his car seat."What do you mean?" Miya asked while handing the boy over to Jackson before lifting her other son from the seat."I come out here to see what's taking you so long, and you are here, handing my kids over to this nig..." Lucas shouted without ending his statement."Watch your languages, dude." Jackson calmly said, but the dominance in his cold eyes was all the warning Lucas needed to shut up.With a carefree expression, Miya looked her husband directly in his face and boldly said, "As you said, I am the one who wanted these babies.

So let's not go there because it won't change anything."Right after his remark, Jackson walked out and slammed the door behind him. But it took only a few seconds for Jennie to catch up to him, and without any hesitation, she grabbed his shirt and firmly held onto it."I am not signing a divorce paper. I am not losing you." Jennie shouted."Suit yourself. I honestly don't give a damn what you choose to do with your life." Jackson mumbled while staring her cold in her eyes.The brutal honesty in his tone had Jennie dumbfoundedly gazing back at him as her fingers slipped off his shirt."How can you say such cruel words to me!" Jennie mumbled in disbelief."How could you do such a cruel thing to me, uh? And now, you want to do what? Play the victim?" Jackson calmly asked,

The next morning when Jackson opened his eyes the first thing his sight rested on was a key, his old phone, and a credit card on the night stand.With a faint smile on his lips, he got out of bed and headed for the shower. After he returned to the bedroom, he got dressed, put the key, phone, and card into his coat pocket before he left the house.Since Steven arrived at the office at six o'clock, he had not left from behind his desk, nor did he change his sitting position since he had been consumed by work all morning.By eleven o'clock a knock on his office door finally cause Steven to raised his head. Then he dropped his pen, leaned back in his seat, and said, "Come in."When the door opened, he expected Julie to walked in. However, when he saw Jackson, his eyes grew dull for a moment."Is that disappointment I see on your face?" Jackson teased as he sat down, then he crossed his leg above the other."Good morning to you too. Why are you here? I

Jackson walked into the dining room, fully dressed in a suit, and Rose and Miya gazed away from their food and awkwardly stared at him. “Dada!” Milo shouted, jumping in his seat. Then Mila and Milu followed his lead and started yelling, “dada.” Those words brought a smile onto Jackson's lips even though he had heard it countless times for the past few months. Beaming with joy, he walked over to his kids' seats and took Milo, Mila and Milu out of their chairs one after the other, playing with them for a moment before putting them back into their seats. “Where are you going in a suit?” Rose asked, setting her fork down on the table. “Today is Miya's final trial date, and I'm driving her to the courthouse?” Jackson said, adoringly staring at Miya. Taking her focus off her son, Rose gazed at Milo, Mila, and Milu and said, “Can you guys say ‘Nana?” “Mom, you've been trying to make them say ‘nana’ for six months now. Th

Okay. We will be out in ten.”After the wedding planner left, Jackson turned to gaze at Steven, and a frown settled on his face.“Steve, breathe,” Jackson mumbled, walking over to his friend.“I'm getting married today,” Steven whispered, holding in his breath.“I know.

Then he stared at Miya and whispered, “It's like I am invisible to her. Is it legal for a mother to replace her son with her grandkids?” “I think I have lost my rights as their mother,” Miya mumbled, chuckling softly. Rose rolled her eyes at both of them, and said, “Haha, fun… my grandbabies needs their nana.” “How long do you plan to stay here?” Jackson mumbled, struggling not to laugh. “Until they are old enough to call me Nana.” “Well. That's some plan. Anyways, I got to go. Steven is planning to invoke my right as his best man if I don't show up.” In a rush, Jackson kissed the babies on their foreheads and turned to stare at Miya, striving to say the words

And they love you even though they can't say it.” Jackson mumbled, taking his eyes off her and focusing on the ocean.“Oh,”“I know how much my mother means to me, and the love I have for her is endless. I think they feel the same way even though they can't speak now.”“How would you know that?”

When she heard footsteps approaching the living room, Rose lifted her head and her gaze rested on her son and Miya. “Mom, we are going out. I just hired a nanny to come over, but can you stay with the kids for a few hours until we get back? Also, there will be a few other people coming over, would you please supervise them as they carry out their task?” Jackson said. “Sure, you two run about your business, and I will be right here with these adorable cuties,” Rose mumbled with a smile as Milu’s tiny hand grabbed onto her finger. His lips curved into a smile as Jackson watched his mother's face glowed with joy. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Thanks, mom.” “You don't have to thank me. These are my grandbabies, and I would do anything for them.” Rose said. The corner of Jackson's mouth raised as he watched the bright smile on Miya's pinkish lips.

Then Jennie walked over to the bed, sat down on the mattress, and mumbled, “You are a dad. That was something you always wanted, and it hurt so bad that I am not the one who made you a father.”“Believe me, that's exactly how I felt when I walked into that room and saw you with your son. It hurt, it hurt so bad that I felt like I couldn't breathe, like the air I was inhaling was suffocating me.” Jackson calmly intoned.As her hand gently caressed the sheet, Jennie ushered her eyes closed and took in a deep breath.
