"curly!". jack heard the familiar voice of his wife, "yeah baby?". he shouted back hoping she'd reply only to be met with silence meaning she wanted him to come upstairs to her. "we've allowed you to enjoy being married jackman but it's time to get back into the studio". chris stressed, "once you finish the album it'll be time for a tour and promotions".
jack sighed gripping his curly hair as he eyed his manager and record company talk to each other on zoom, "my wife is pregnant chris, she's almost six months now i wanna be there when she has the baby to help". jack said gazing at his manager who's eyes doubled in size.
"halle? s-she's pregnant". he asked in disbelief "yes she's pregnant and i don't want to start missing appointments or milestones when our baby girl get's here plus i don't want her to be overwhelmed taking care of our baby by herself". he added hoping they would cut him some slack.
"well congratulations on having a daughter but jackman you signed a contract that needs to be fulfilled, the fans want new music jackman". craig stressed.
"halle is in this music industry as well, she of all people should know about having to make sacrifices".
jack shook his head in disagreement, "y'all don't understand!". jack shouted glaring at craig "we do understand but jackman we're losing money the longer we delay the album".
halle made her way downstairs after hearing her husband yelling angrily at whoever he was talking too, "baby are you okay?". she softly asked looking over at jack who looked stressed out.
"yeah baby i'm sorry for being loud". he apologized gesturing her over, halle shook her head no noticing the other voices talking on his laptop. "jackman are you even listening to us!". chris shouted gaining the attention of jack who was indeed not listening to anything they were discussing.
"i've arranged for a driver to pick you up bright and early tomorrow so we can have this meeting in person be ready".
"tomorrow? i can't come tomorrow halle has a doctor appointment".
"what does that have to do with us? a driver will be waiting have a good night". jack gritted his teeth before grabbing his mac book slamming it shut before tossing it violently against the floor.
"they never care about shit but money! like i just told them you have an appointment and them assholes completely ignore me". halle made her way over to a red faced jack before sitting on his lap pulling him into a hug.
"baby it's gonna be okay". she whispered rubbing his back in comfort, "no it's not, halle they want me to go on tour what about the baby i can't help you if i'm across the country".
