Mario POV
"It's so beautiful out here. We really needed this vacation." Jasmine said as she laid on my chest with her left leg swung over my legs.
"Yeah we did. Get away from crazy Chicago. I low key want to buy a house out here just to have." I shrugged. It's not a bad idea.
"I mean, it would save a lot of money and we don't have any vacation homes. I think that while we're down here, we should look." Jas said. I nodded and rubbed up and down her leg.
"I wonder what the kids are doing." She said.
"They all went to the beach. They have Nasir too. Ja texted me earlier on." I informed her.
My phone started ringing and I reached over and grabbed it. I looked at the caller id and surprisingly it was Arabella calling me. She barely ever hits my line so there must be something going on with Jasmine's dad.
"Hello?" I answered the phone.
"Mario, c'è stato un terribile incidente! Bisogna tornare a casa subito!" She spoke quickly and definitely not in English. She sounds like as if she's panicking.
"Woah, slow down and tells me what's wrong. In English this time please." I said calmly. Jasmine looked up at me and I just shrugged.
"It's just terrible. Louis called me and said that Loriana and Chris got shot! They're being rushed to the hospital as we speak. You have to get back home!" When she said that my heart skipped a beat and I immediately sat up.
"What do you mean they got shot? How?!" I yelled through the phone. I moved Jasmine off of me and I got up from the bed. I walked to the other side of the room and opened my laptop that was sitting on a desk.
As Arabella tried to explain this shit, I was booking my airplane and making sure that it will be ready in the next hour. I got irritated and just hung up the phone. I'm still trying to figure out how this shit happened. Last time I checked, Lori said she was going to stay over at Louis's place for a little. How does this end up with my little princess getting shit? I slammed my laptop closed and said a quick prayer.
"Mario what is happening? Who got shot?" Jasmine asked. She got out of bed, and although she was in all her naked glory, the news I just got has me sick as fuck.
"I can't explain right now Jasmine. I just need you to pack your stuff up because we have to get out of here immediately. The kids are gonna stay here where they got security and they can continue their vacation." I said. I stood up and started to pack up everything.
"Wait, we can not leave three little kids in Barbados!" She yelled.
"Jasmine, we really don't have time to argue about this shit! What I need for you to do is shut up, and pack your shit." I yelled, making her back down. She rolled her eyes and went to pack up her things.
I chose to not tell Jas what's going on because she always assumes the worst and she'll act like as if Lori actually died the whole way back to Chicago. I'll notify her when we're in the car, on the way to the hospital. From what Arabella was saying, Lori got shot once and on her hip so I do believe that by the grace of God, my baby girl will be fine. Hurt, but alive. I also pray that Chris is just fine because if Tammy and Ant loose another son, I think it will really ruin them.
My phone started ringing and it was my PR manager calling me. This is not what I need right now at all.
"Yo." I answered the phone.
"Sorry to bother you but I heard what happened to your daughter. I'm so sorry. I can't believe this." She said with a sympathetic tone.
"Everything will be fine by the grace of God." I said, low key trying to convince myself. "Why are you calling me?"
