One Year Later...

"Happy Birthday to you.

Happy Birthday to you.

Happy Birthday Dear Nola

Happy birthday to you." Nola giggled as she covered her face while everyone sang.

"Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday

Happy birthday Dear Nola,

Happy birthday to you!?" They sang.

"Now make a wish baby" Jazmine exclaimed.

Nola closed her eyes tightly and yelled "CoCo"

Everyone laughed. Nola's crazy about Cocomelon. In fact, that's the theme of her first birthday party. Huey gently kissed her cheek. He held Nola in his arms.

"Are you ready to blow out the candles princess? "He whispered in her ear, she clasped her hands together, which was her way of saying yes.

Malcolm, who was being held by Jazmine, gave her a round of applause.

"Mal wants to help too" Jazmine said, kissing him on the cheek.

"On the count of three," Huey said. Everyone joined in to count.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

Jazmine and Huey stooped down to blow out the candles. Everyone cheered and clapped while both Malcom and Nola were clapping their tiny hands.

Nathaniel recorded the entire scene and kept the camera mainly on Jazmine. Natalia, who had arrived with Caesar, caught a glimpse and elbowed him.

"What are you doing?" Natalia muttered. Nathaniel laughed it off as he returned the camera back to Nola.

Lying beside you, here in the dark

Feeling your heart beat with mine, mine

Softly you whisper, you're so sincere

How could our love be so blind?

As they celebrated, Jazmine could not help noticing that something or rather someone was missing. A tear fell from her cheeks, but then, all of a sudden, the bell rang.

Ding Dong!

Jazmine hastened to the door to respond. She answered the door and,

"Mi Hija!"

Jazmine's eyes widened, it was Isabella!

"Oh Mi Hija, I miss you so much," said Isabella in tears. She held Jazmine's face who was still looking at her in shock.

We sailed on together

We've drifted apart

And here you are by my side

Isabella was hurt that Jazmine wasn't as excited to see her. She thought Jazmine was angry that she had stayed away so long. She sent letters to Jazmine but she knew it wasn't the same.

"I missed you so much!" cried Isabella, while Jazmine's face began to blush and her lips trembled.

So now I come to you with open arms

Nothing to hide, believe what I say

Isabella looked at her with worried eyes, but suddenly Jazmine rushed into her arms. She did not say a word, only she cried.
