Nova~

Today is James' party. I'm not too excited to see him after our last awkward encounter but it's my job. I'm a party planner. I decided to dress casually. I wasn't trying to find me a man, although I should've have because of Kemo's actions. With a white blouse, black dress pants, and my favorite black Red bottoms, I arrived at James' event. I came a bit early to make sure everything was all set up. The first person I saw was of course, James. James Franco. He was looking really nice today. It was his birthday so I guess he had to look his best.

I walked over to him and called his name. He turned towards me and smiled. That smile got me a little weak in the knees.

"Hello, Nova. How are you?" He said.

I smiled. "I'm great. How are you?"

"I'm great. Now that you're here."

I nodded and looked around. Everything was set up correctly. The balloons, the food and drinks, the tables and seats, and the dj was there setting up his equipment.

"You did a great job with this party," he said and looked around. "I will definitely hire you for my next event."

"Well, thank you. I should go, right? No use of me staying."

"No, please stay. The party will be starting soon and you deserve it. You're the one that made all this possible."

I had every intention of staying but I wanted to make sure he wanted me here before I stayed and partied.

"Ok, sure. I'll definitely stay and have a good time. I definitely need it."

"Yes, you look like you need to have a good time."

I smiled and remembered that I had forgotten to wish him a happy birthday. "Happy birthday, Franco."

"Thanks, sweetie."

Just then a beautiful woman walked in. She was tall, had brown skin, and very long hair. She was gorgeous.

"Hey, baby!" she said running towards James and kissing his cheek.

"Hey, babe. Adowa this is, Nova my party planner. Nova this my fiancé, Adowa."

"Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you Nova."

"It nice to meet you too, Adowa. May I ask a question?" I asked.

"Sure. Anything." Adowa said with a smile.

"Ok. Is your name African? I'm just a bit curious." I said hoping not to offend her.

"Oh, yes. My mom is from Africa!"

Adowa was very nice. She explained that she was a model. She was only 21 and Franco is nearing his 40's. They made a beautiful couple though. Although I felt a tinge of jealously, I let it go. He wasn't mines and I was married.

The party was nice. Lots of celebs showed up and booked me for their next event. I was beyond happy knowing that I would be planning these celebs parties. I had fun that night but knowing I would have to go home to all this drama kinda ruined my mood. I ended up leaving a bit early hoping that Kemo wouldn't be home.

I got home around 12 at night. I checked everyone's room and all the kids were in their room asleep. I went to my bedroom and Kemo was up watching television. I was upset that he was here but I didn't have the balls to tell him to leave. I entered the room and quickly undressed. I looked around for my pajamas and found them lying on the ground.

"Why are my new pajamas laying on the ground?" I asked pissed off.

"Calm down, babe. They must've fell off the bed when I laid down."
