Jasmine POV
I woke up at eight thirty. Only Zayne was still with me. She told me everyone went to help Mommy shop for a few more things but she stayed.
"You should be with Mel."
"Nah, she understands and she went with them. Daddy and Paul is downstairs cooking."
"I'm divorcing Paul."
"No. You have two kids. Imagine how that's going to affect them."
"I want to tell you something but you have to promise not to tell anyone." I told Zayne.
"Okay."
"Meadow Rain is deaf in both ears."
Zayne blinked hard. "What?"
I nodded.
"Don't cry. If you cry, we're fighting. Maybe this happened for a reason. Maybe they'll do an experiment on her and she'll hear again."
I nodded again.
"So, go and sexy yourself up and come downstairs. Paul told us what happened and he feels terrible."
We kissed, no it wasn't weird. That's my sister. Anyway, she went downstairs and I ran to the bathroom. Tears stained my cheeks, my eyes were red and I looked miserable.
I washed my face and did my makeup and changed into shorts and a tank top. I want Paul to see what he'll be leaving. I went to my dresser to get my ring to hand to him but it wasn't there. I looked around and felt panicky. No! I lost my ring. My hand felt naked.
I went downstairs to the living room by myself. I heard Paul and Daddy in the kitchen, whispering. Zayne was playing with Meadow Rain in the sun room.
I reached for my phone and realized I didn't have one anymore. I groaned.
Paul came into view with a box wrapped in heart paper and a big box with flowers. He sat next to me.
"Every time we argue, you shouldn't want to divorce. When we argue, we get closer. If we divorce, we are failures because we didn't try. And, Bubba, you have to trust me on this. I did not have sex with anyone but you." Paul said.
I pretend to look at my nails. I'm so tired of hearing this.
"So, here." Paul handed me the wrapped box.
I opened it and smiled when I saw the iPhone box. He also handed me my Sims card. I looked at his blue eyes.
"No matter how hard I try, I can't stay mad at you." I told Paul.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and kiss him. He kissed me back and put his hands on my face. I broke away and looked at the big box. I opened it.
"Me and Vin were shopping for the flowers and his mom is a baker and she told me to bring you this."
Inside was a double stacked cakes with vanilla frosting and chocolates. Reeses and Hershey and snickers and a bit of sour patch kids. I squealed and dipped my finger in the frosting and shoved my finger in Paul mouth.
"Good?" I asked and ate the little bit that remained on my finger. It was delicious.
"So when we watch Netflix later on, we'll much on this. Okay." Paul said.
"Okay." I nodded.
"And I'm sorry for being a dick." Paul kissed my head.
"Accepted." I said.
Zayne cheered in the back and came to kiss our cheeks. "Break Up to Make Up."
I gave her my finger and she laughed. I know I swore up and down that I was divorcing Paul but I couldn't. He was my world. Without him, I'm just Jasmine Jackson.
He slid my ring back on my finger and kissed it.
