Jonah entered his apartment after another appointment with his therapist. Therapy has been going great for him and he feels better than ever. Cali, Kyran, Asia, and Killian have sat in on a few sessions with him for better understanding which has been going good as well. They've been seeing his improvement, and they are excited about his future.

"Cali, you didn't go to your study group?" Jonah asked when he entered his bedroom and found Cali lying in his bed.

"It was cancelled." Cali replied.

Jonah leaned over and kissed a lips a few times. "You wanna go to that party tonight? Ky and Asia are going."

"Yeah, we can go. I haven't partied since homecoming." Cali said.

"Yeah, me too." Jonah said. He eyed Cali and noticed that she was bra-less. "Ky must not be here."

"No, he went with Asia to her mom's house." Cali told him.

"You think I can get some?" Jonah asked as he kissed Cali's right nipple through her shirt.

In a therapy session, Cali learned that Jonah's bipolar disorder has a symptom of a high sex drive. Jonah damn near wanted sex every day and when he couldn't get it, he would please himself with his hand. Cali did enjoy his drive and he knew how to accept the word no so it wasn't a problem for her.

"Yeah, you can have some." Cali said. Jonah pulled Cali's shirt up and began to suck on the same nipple he was kissing. "Go close the door just in case."

Jonah went and did as told. Just when he was taking his clothes off, Cali's phone began to ring. "Ah shit." Jonah cursed when he peeped that it was Taylor. He knew Cali was going to answer.

Cali pulled her shirt down and quickly answered the phone. "Hey daddy." Jonah stood in the center of his bedroom with his shirt halfway off and his sweatpants to his ankles. Cali folded her lips so she wouldn't laugh.

"Hey, Zuri had to go to the hospital. The twins are trying to come." Taylor told her.

"Wait—she's only twenty four weeks." Cali said as she sat up.

"Yeah, the doctor is going to do her best to stop the labor. If she can't then the babies will have to be in the NICU for several weeks." Taylor said.

"I have to be there." Cali replied.

"No, you're going to focus on your finals." Taylor told her. "We'll keep you and your brother updated. Right now, the doctor is focusing on stopping the labor."

Cali sighed. "Can I at least talk to her?"

"We had to step out of the room, but I will call you once we're with her again." Taylor said. "Everything is gonna be okay, tink. Don't stress yourself."

"Okay, daddy. Don't forget to call me."

"I won't, tink. I'll call you in a little bit."

They hung up and Cali pouted. Jonah pulled his sweatpants up and sat next to Cali. "What's going on, baby?" He asked.

"Zuri is in preterm labor." Cali said as she began to cry.

"Don't cry, Cali." Jonah said softly while holding her. "It's gonna be okay, mamas."

"I'm so worried, Jonah. I don't know what to do." Cali cried.

"C'mon, let's pray." Jonah told her.

"Mommy." LJ cried as he walked into the room. "Mommy, let's go home."

"I can't go home, LJ. Mommy needs to stay so your sisters don't come too soon." Zuri replied while wiping her tears.
