It was mother's day all I wanted to do was lay in bed but Of course I had to go put on a front for the whole damn world . This wasn't my first time on live television but it still didn't change the fact that I didn't want to lie and act like I'm happy when I'm not .
We were rushed over to the place , Supposedly they were going to get me fixed up over there and I didn't have to worry about doing my hair . I've been here since 6am & we go on at 9am , It's suppose to be a friendly mothers day show that everyone can enjoy .
The make up artist I had had literally taking forever , She was worried more about my personal life then she was about getting my makeup done . They had me wearing a pretty ass light pink givenchy dress with these Versace heels . I loved my attire especially my hair , It was slicked back and I actually felt pretty for once without caring what anyone else has to say .
Ash seemed like he was in a ok mood , I didn't get a happy mothers day from him even after carrying his son for 9 months . It was nothing new tho so I just accept it and move on , The reason for the dress was to show off the bump everyone said I had but only think I seen was a gut . Of course he had to put on a show infront of his business that he was the perfect man and dad which he wasn't . I know the can sense he wasn't too because he didn't come over and bring a flower .. rose petal nothing .
11am
" alright y'all we going in in 5 .. 4 .. 3 .. 2 .. 1 " the producer said as I put on a smile while me King and Ash sat in this beautiful coach like the happiest family in the world .
" Helllooo America & happy mothers day , Today we have the only and only Offset from the migos with his soon to be wife & today were going to celebrate mothers day for all the mothers out there . Say Offset how's the family , fill us in ! We wanna know everything " she said and I just wanted for his response . How are we doing , If only we could be truthful but we have go sorry about his " Career " & " image " .
" well it doesn't get more happier than this , My beautiful lady and my handsome son are a great impact on my life . Without them I wouldn't go this hard to make sure they're good " he said and I knew those words coming out his must've killed him inside .
" wow that's wonderful , There's nothing like a man who puts his family first . So Jennifer right ? .. Well I know your young do you feel this is the best thing that's happened to you so far ? I mean you're living a beautiful life at a young age just fill us in on how your life has change every since . " she said and I was deep into thinking about what my response was going to be .
" well every since my parents died when I was younger family was important to me . Ash has been showing me different things I've never seen before and he's an amazing person .. just a few flaws but everyone has flaws right ? I mean he's perfect and my son well seems like I got a 2 for 1 package deal . These two keep me safe and loved always . " I said feeling sick to my stomach , I just lied about how perfect he was when I know none of that shit was true.
" looks like you got a keeper right here Ash . What made you feel she was the one Ash ? Because you've had a bad pass with relationships " she said and I couldn't remember who ash was with before me , I wonder if she went through what I went through or had some words of advice .
" I knew she was the one when I layed my eyes on her . She's smart funny & very beautiful . I knew she would complete me in so many ways , Which is why I wanted to wait but this is the perfect timing for us . She's pregnant you guys !! " he said and the audience went crazy .
" wow that's amazing ! " she said clapping her hands along with the audience .
" Also being that were about to have a second child it's only right I make you my wife , Jennifer Melani Carter would you take the honor of being my wife . I can't imagine life without you and you're so perfect to me , My son you and our soon to be baby . " he said and I did not see that coming , It was only supposed to be a talk show revealing the baby and that's it . I wonder if the words he was saying came from the heart . If he finally realized how special I'm am or is he trying to act Infront of everyone . It took everything in me not to say no , I let out a few tears as he was turned towards me . I looked up at his eyes and seen the lies and dishonestly coming between his lips as he continued to speak .
