Fantasia POV

I was driving home from a long day of shopping for my children. Christmas is coming soon and I want to make sure that Santa has her job done well.

Although Zion was old enough to know the truth about Santa we still kept it a secret from Dallas. My husband Kendall and I are actively trying for a baby but it has been unsuccessful so far.

I haven't given up hope but it feels as if he has. Our relationship has been a bit rocky for sometime. I'm all for fighting through things and I pray that we can fight through this.

In the midst of my thoughts a call ringer throughout my car. I answered it , putting it on speaker.

"This is Fantasia speaking,"

"Hi Fantasia , this is Oprah Winfrey,"

Oprah? My eyes lit up
"Hi Oprah how can I help you?"

"There's a director that I've met some time ago and we were thinking of a film that requires you to be our main character,"

"Mhm," I was all ears listening. I haven't acted since broadway and acting is something I'd like to do to expand my career.

"The color purple, I know you're familiar with the story and it would everything if you could stop by and audition in a months time,"

I'm not sure if I want to do a story like this one again. Celie's character is too much for me to deal.

"Oprah ... as blessed as I am for this opportunity I'm not sure-"

"Hold on, before you say no. Please think about it, I'll send you the information to where we're holding audition through email. This is a recreation.. a re-imagination of the film,"

"Well alright Ms.O, I'll give it some thought. You have a wonderful evening , thank you for your consideration,"

"You as well sweetheart, tell the family I say hello!"

This could be a wonderful opportunity for me. Thoughts of acting in this film ran through my mind over and over as I drove.

I walked through the front door of my home , I was home earlier than expected. I'm happy though , I plan on cooking something quick before I pick Dallas up from my mother's house.

I expected the house to be empty since everyone had plans set for today but I heard voices and noise coming from upstairs, the direction I went towards.

"Zion? Kendall?" I called both names as I walked up the stairs walking into my room.

I couldn't believe what I had saw before my eyes. The pain of seeing another woman with the man I loved shot through my heart. I dropped the bags that were in my hands gaining their attention.

"Baby!" Kendall and the woman on top of him moved around quickly adjusting the blankets

I couldn't manage to create words with my mouth. All I felt was rage , lord forgive me.

"I could kill you," left my lips without a thought.

I turned the light on and went straight to my closet. Grabbing a suitcase and stuffing it with clothing as tears streamed from my eyes.
