CHANELLE'S POV.

It's been 2 months since I told Jovanny I'm pregnant and we don't talk. It hurts a lot. How can he completely change the way he feels about me? and reject our babies? OUR babies? I cried a lot the day after I told him. He doesn't want me, our babies, or get married.

But, my sadness and broken heart has turned into anger and hatred. Jovanny actually called me the other day. He told me he wants to drop all rights to my babies. And that is fine with me. After I told my parents they called his parents, and called off the decision for us to get married.

Which means, he'll have another wife. And I'll have another husband. My babies, will have another father. But as long as whoever he is loves and accepts me and my babies it's cool with me.

Today is the day me, my parents and our lawyer meet with Jovanny, his parents, and his lawyer to sign over all his rights to the babies. I haven't seen or spoken to him at all. Since we argued. I'm nervous but I'll feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

I put my hair into a cute sock bun and did my makeup. I put on a white muscle shirt with a black half sleeve blazer, blue skinny jeans, and tall black Stileto heels. I look into the mirror when I'm done getting ready and notice I have a baby bump. I rub it and smile. I'm 3 months. And next month I can find out what they are! I'm quite surprised my stomach isn't as big as I expected for 3 months, especially since I'm having twins.

"Chanelle let's go!" I hear my mom call downstairs. I grab my phone and go downstairs. "good luck" Cesar tells me with a smile as he walks past me. I smile back. "thanks" I tell him. We go outside and get into the limo where our lawyer is already waiting for us.

"hello Chanelle" he says. "hello" I say back. "okay, I just want you to know what to expect when we go into my office, once Mr. Graziano signs off his rights to the children and if he one day for whatever reason chooses to gain back paternal rights you do have the right to not allow it since they are legally and fully yours" he tells me. I nod.

"but you can't ask for child support if he drops his rights you do know that right?" he says. "that won't be a problem" my dad says. "she has plenty of support for herself and the babies me and my husband have it under control" my mom tells him. I smile.

I don't need Jovanny or his money. We drive to his office and get off. When we walk into the meeting room Jovanny and his parents are already there. I get extreme butterflies and nervous. He looks so sexy in his tux. No! Don't think that Chanelle. I notice his eyes stare at my baby bump. But I quickly sit down.

"okay let's get started" my lawyer says as he puts on his glasses and opens a folder. "your client wishes to drop all paternal rights to these children including no request of child support, do you have the paper work?" he asks.

"yes I do" Jovanny's lawyer says as he pulls the paper out of a folder. "okay, Chanelle you sign right here" he says as he hands me a piece of paper with 2 signature spots. I sign it. "okay, and Mr. Graziano you sign right here and this will be done and final" he tells him.

Jovanny picks up the pen but, just stares at the paper. My mom and I look at each other confused. "um, you can sign the paper Mr. Graziano, right there" my lawyer tells him. But he just keeps staring, then puts down the pen. "I, I don't want to" he says.

I instantly freeze in shock. "um-" is all my lawyer can say. "Jovanny what are you doing?" his mom asks him. "I don't wanna sign the papers" he says as he leans back in his chair. "Jovanny sign the papers!" I tell him as I push the paper towards him.

"no I don't want to! Those are MY kids!" he says back. "all of a sudden?! After not talking to me for 2 months?! Not giving one fuck about these babies! Breaking my heart n allowing me to marry somebody else?!" I yell at him. He just looks down and it gets completely quiet.

I stand up and storm out of the room. I walk back to the limo and slam the door as I get in. I let a tear escape my eye. Why is he doing this to me?! Then I see my parents get into the car. "honey are you alright?" my mom asks. "no I'm not! first he tells me he doesn't want any of this and now he's just gonna change his mind?!" I say completely annoyed.

"I know I know don't worry I'll call Ben later and see what we can do, he ain't gonna bounce fucking back and forth it isn't fair to you or the kids" my mom says. We get home and I go straight upstairs. I'm pissed off beyond belief. I hate him! why is he doing this to me?! I kick off my heels and change into comfier clothes.

I decide to take a nap cause my is just pounding. I fell asleep for about 4-5 hours but woke up when my mom called me downstairs to go eat. At least there is one good thing about this day. FOOD. Steak, mashed potatoes, salad, and pasta. I can tell my brothers are angered by the situation during dinner.

I'm actually surprised they're not saying anything. probably cause my mom told them not to. As we eat the phone rings. "oh Stella can you answer that?" my mom asks. She nods and goes to the phone. "um Chanelle" Stella says as she comes back into the kitchen and I take a sip of my coke.

"that was Jovanny" she says and all of our heads look up at her. "he, wants to talk to you, he said if you can go to his house as soon as you're done eating" she tells me. I sigh. "is he still on the phone?" I ask. "no" she says. I nod.

"are you gonna go?" Sebastian asks me. "I don't know" I reply. "you shouldn't even give him the time of the damn day" Antonio says. "and you think I want to after all the shit he's done? if he didn't wanna sign the papers to sign over his rights I need to know why and see exactly what he wants" I tell him.

"she's right Antonio, besides, this whole situation is solely between the two of them" my mom tells him. "yeah cause he's a good kid right?" Cesar says sarcastically. "what are you talking about?" I ask him. "son" my dad tells him. "how do we know Jovanny didn't make you have-" Antonio starts but my mom cuts him off.

"Antonio that's enough" my mom tells him. I already know what he was gonna say. I know he really dislikes Jovanny right now but really? To say what if he made me have sex? I shake my head and stand up. "Chanelle" my mom says but I grab my car keys and go out the door.

I'm gonna drive to Jovanny's house and get shit straight. I park in front and go to the front door and knock. And he opens the door. "we need-" I start but he cuts me off. "let's go to my room" he says as he leads me upstairs and to his room. We go in and he closes the door behind him.

"okay look" he says but I cut him off. "no you look, I am tired of your shit Jovanny! first you want to be with me and then you leave me pregnant and alone for 2 months and now you're saying you want these babies?! what do you want!?" I yell at him.

"look I was thinking I, I know what I did and said but, you gotta believe when I say this cause I've been thinking for 2 months straight and, I don't want somebody else to raise my kids, or have you" he tells me gesturing with his hands.

"how am I suppose to trust you? you, you broke my heart Jovanny! I, I thought you were gonna do the complete opposite of what you did, I'm scared, I don't wanna be a mom right now, but I already LOVE these babies to death, why can't you feel the same?" I ask with tears going down my cheeks.

"when are you gonna stop being so damn selfish!" I yell at him pushing him in the chest. "Chanelle I know I've been selfish and have done everything wrong but, you gotta trust me, you gotta give me a second chance" he says. I cross my arms and shake my head.

"I don't know, I, I have to think about it" I tell him quietly as I wipe away my tears. "please think about it Chanelle please" he says then looks down at my stomach. I nod and leave his room with him following behind. I go to his front door and open it. "I'm really sorry" he says sweetly. I just nod and leave. I have a lot to think about.
