The Hate and Love Game

Game #130

CHRESANTO POV

"Ma, let me in! I want to see my kids!" I yelled through the door. This day was planned for me. I want to see them, especially my girls. I hear the door unlock, and swing open quickly. "Okay, okay. They're upstairs." she said laughing at me a little bit. I ran upstairs and looked in all the rooms for them. I found them all in my old room. I walked in and looked around the room that I use to sleep in. The room I made a lot of childhood memories in. The room that was left untouched ever since the day I moved out to take care of Ella and the twins in our own house. I sighed aloud. "Papì!" Christina yelled running up to me. I smiled bending down to her height. "Hey baby girl. I missed you!" I said hugging her. She kissed my cheek. "I missed you more." she said smiling. "Where's mamà?" Chris asked crossing his arms. "She at work right now. But I'm here." I said looking at him. He shrugged his shoulders. I gasped. "Really Chris? Whatchu mad or somethin?" I asked standing over him. He shook his head. "Hi Papì." he said smiling at me. I smirked and hit him in the back of the head playfully. I looked around the room a little more when I felt arms wrap around my leg. I looked down only to find Trey hugging them tightly. "Sup." I said looking down at him. "Can we go home now?" he asked. I nodded my head. "Yeah, we can go home. Get your stuff ready." I said patting his back. He nodded his head and did as I said, along with the twins. I'm missing one more person though. I looked around the room some more only to find my itty bitty daughter, Crystal sitting in, what used to be my favorite chair. I smiled walking over to her. She was sitting there so quietly. I can't help but wonder how she got up there though. She's only 2 feet tall, and her feet can't even touch the ground. "Hi Crystal." I said smiling at her. She smiled back and waved to me. She's got Ella's shy side for sure. "You know this is my seat right? I didn't say you could sit in it." I said to her. "I sorry." she said trying to get down. I shook my head. "No, no, no. You can sit in it. Only because you're my daughter. Can I have a kiss though?" I asked poking my lips out. She smiled, and kissed me. I picked her up, and kissed her cheek. "Let's go." I said walking downstairs with her in my arms. Crystal is a beautiful little girl. And everyday, she is starting to look more like Gabriella. When she was born she looked more like me and she still does! But, she just has her mothers beauty along with Christina. All 3 of my kids were standing by the door with their bags and other stuff. My mom was talking to them. I walked over to them and put Crystal down. My mom crossed her arms looking up at me, and I put my hands in my pocket looking down at her. "Thank you so much Ma. Like, you've helped me and Ella in a really big way." I said. She smiled. "I'm just doing my job. You 2 might be adults, but you're still my baby and she's still is a daughter to me." she said. I smiled. "Glad to hear that." I said. She laughed. "Well I'll see you later okay?" she hugged me. I hesitated for a moment but eventually hugged back when I realized she means the world to me and I love her more then myself. "You tell me when something is going on okay?" she said in my ear. I nodded my head pulling away. "I love you." I said. She smiled. "I love you too." With all that being said, me and the kids left. I buckled them in their seats in the back, and we went home. I was kind of missing Ella. She's only been gone for like, 5 hours. But she's been home for a few weeks all day not working. I'm kind of missing those days.

GABRIELLA POV

I sat in my office trying to figure out what colors should be on the front cover of this magazine. It's so hard trying to find the perfect color Mr. Clark will be impressed with. I was so frustrated. I sighed an took a sip of my coffee. I pulled away looking at it. Who made this? It had a funky taste to it. "Shit don't even taste right..." I said to myself. I shook my head and put it back down on the desk. I looked at all the colors I had to choose from when my phone started ringing. I cleared my throat and put it to my ear. "This is Gabriella August. Speak please?" I said. "This is how you answer you phone?" the person on the other half of the phone said. When I realized who's voice it was, my eyes widened and I sat up quickly. "Mr. Clark, no this isn't." I said laughing nervously. "Mhm. Okay. Are you done with the colors yet?" he asked. "Uh, no actually. Still struggling." I said looking down at what I had accomplished today. Nothing. "Well I need that tomorrow. But I'm calling to let you know someone is here to meet you. And I hate that they did it while you were working, but they said it was urgent." he said. "Okay." I said confused. "You're not the only one though. It's sort of like an interview. They said there was a lot more people they interviewed. They also said they chose wisely of the people they wanted to interview and you're one of them. They are in Room #278 on the fourth floor." I threw my stuff down and stood up. "Alright. Thank you." I said pulling my shirt down. "No problem." he said. I smiled and hung up the phone. I took a deep breath and walked out the room closing the door behind me. Nobody informed me about a damn interview. I don't even know what it was for. And I am not in the mood to do anything today. I took the elevator upstairs and walked to the room. I opened the door, and saw 3 people sitting next to each other. 2 men and 1 woman. They had serious looks on their faces, and they looked completely professional. I smiled closing the door. "Hello." I said nervously. "Are you Gabriella August?" the woman asked. I nodded my head. "Please, take a seat." one man said. I did as they said and took the seat across from them. "I'm Isaac James, this is Ashley Collans, and this is Richard Kelly. We are here today to talk to you about a upcoming reality show of someone's life. Problem is, we don't know who's life we are to tape video of. We've saw you on multiple movies, and also seen you on the news a few times. It's good you're still breathing and you're alright also. But, a reality show of your life will bring you to the top. You could call yourself a celebrity now, but you'd be much bigger in the industry. All you have to do is let us know a little about your life right now." I gave them all a blank face. "I'm honored really. But I'm married, and I feel more comfortable talking about this with my husband also." I said messing with my thumbs. "No problem. Can he come here?" Ashely asked. I raised my eye brow at her. Is she serious? "I don't know." I said. "Do you mind giving him a call? We don't mind waiting." Richard said. I thought for a moment, and shrugged my shoulders. "I guess so." I said standing up and pulling my phone out my pocket. They all modded their heads. I sat back down, and dialed his number. They just sat there staring at me. This is weird. "Hey baby girl." I heard Chresanto say. I smiled. "Hi Chresanto." I said. "Chresanto?" he asked. I nodded my head. "Yes. Can you come up to my job for a few minutes. Maybe 25 at the most." I said. "I just picked up the kids. You want me to take them back to my moms house now?" he asked. "No. This is really important. Just, call Monse and Ray. They need a little children experience anyway." I said. "Right. Okay. I'll see you in a minute then. What room?" "278." I said. "Alright. Love you." "Love you too." I said hanging up the phone. I looked at them, and they were still staring. I nodded my head and looked down. The only thing we have to do is wait now. And I feel entirely uncomfortable right now, so I hope he hurries. About 20 minutes later, he finally showed up. "Can you give us a second?" I asked them. They nodded their head, and I ran up to Chresanto. We walked in the hallway and closed the door. I cupped his face in my hand, and kissed his lips. I felt his arms wrap around my waist. "What's up in there?" he asked me. "They want to interview me for a reality show." I said looking at his big brown eyes :) They widened. "A reality show?" he asked. I laughed a little nodding my head. "They want me to tell them a little about my life, but I don't want to talk about my personal life. And of course, get into detail about it." I said. He nodded his head. "I know baby. Just don't say anything you aren't comfortable with. I'll be right next to you." he said rubbing my cheek. I smiled. "You're right. I couldn't do it without you anyway." I said. "I know. C'mon." he said opening the door. We walked back to where I was sitting back down. "Start when you're ready." Isaac said. I nodded my head. "Well, uhm. My parents, they were never around that much. I don't even know the feeling of having a parent who loved me for me until I met his mother. But anyway, high school? I wasn't that popular but I was well known. I got into a few fights before but never got suspended. I hated this man with all my heart in high school but things changed one day. When we started going out, drama started. But it didn't stop us. After a few months, I learned to love him and things started flooding my mind. My hormones were going crazy. Next thing you know, I got pregnant at 15 with his baby. I didn't get to keep the baby though. Uh, things happened. But I got pregnant again a year later with twins. Christiana and Christopher. When we were 18, he moved out his moms house to be with me and the twins. Of course, we both graduated from high school and college wasn't in the picture since we had 2 kids. I ended up going to college anyway for 4 years. Juliard to be specific. I was 22 when I got out and I was still young. I was all about partying. Anyway, we just struggled to keep people out of the picture. It felt like high school drama was stuck with us. And it's still is. But we did it." I felt my eyes watering. "He ended up proposing to me when I got back. I was too young for it and for having kids, but I've known him since we were kids. Plus, the twins needed to grow up with 2 parents anyway. But I said yes, and we got married. I even was pregnant during the wedding which felt weird but I was fine. Uh, my 3rd child Trey. But he was brought into the world safely and after he was born and a little before that's when my acting career started a little. But yes, there was still drama surrounding us. His ex's kept trying to split us up and do all these things to manipulate our relationship. It didn't work though. We just did our own thing for 2 years after he was born and it worked out fine. I still didn't feel safe though. I've got shot more then once, he's got shot more the once, and ...it just felt like life was throwing all these complicated situations at us." I felt a few tears fall down my cheeks. "You want to take a break?" Chres asked wiping my face. I shook my head. "I'm fine." I said looking at him. "Uh, just recently I had my 4th child. Crystal. She is also the last by the way. And I just recently got out the hospital too. I'm fine now though, but I can never look at my body the same way anymore. I think me and my husband are finally getting our life back on track now and I'm happy. There has been so many tragic things in our life and hard obstacles to get through but look where I am today? I've got 4 kids, a great husband, a incredibly well paying job, I delivered a baby, and now I'm being interviewed for a show." I wiped the new tears that fell down my cheek. The woman was a little teary eyed also. "I think you're life has been the best to hear about so far." Richard said. I smiled. "Thank you." I said. "We'll just have to figure out who we'll pick though. If its you, we'll get back you okay?" Ashley said. I nodded my head, but gave her a stank look too. I don't like the way she was looking at Chresanto.
