"Jas, why do I have to do this photo shoot?" I complained.
"Come on V, please." She gave me her famous puppy eyes.
Talika started laughing "Now mama can't say no."
"What makes you say that?" I said before tickling her.
"Stop mama," She laughed.
I stopped tickling her, "Okay I'll do it, though I would much rather be practicing my lines for my new role." I sighed in defeat.
"Thanks V, I don't know why you always stress you've always been a lead, even in your first movie."
My mind flashed to about 2 years ago, I had reluctantly auditioned at for a movie. Jas forced me saying the role was made for me. I auditioned for the lead but I didn't get the role. Though I left the audition happy since I was given subordinate role as the lead characters best friend.
When it came to shooting the lead fell sick and the director insisted that we couldn't push the filming back. Jas was close with the director so she insisted I play the role and that's how I got the lead in a remake of an 80's movie. First kiss
It was about two rebels who fell in love. I really enjoyed being part of the movie. Before I knew it I was famous, camera's were on me, I was always in the public eye. At that time Talika was nearly 18 months. I am so grateful to Tasha took always took care of her, even to this day Tasha is still Tali's nanny, this week she is off so Talika is stuck with me all day since today was her last day cause of the Christmas holidays.
Jasmine had a long journey, although she was a manager for a nearly a year she had to deal with a spoilt rich kid who never showed up, or if he did he was always hours late. He eventually quit he became the party boy of the town. For about 3 months Jas was a manager with no-one to manage until she was assigned to be my manager. I was over the moon that I had a manger I could trust 100%.
That's how my story began, I even got an awards for that movie. Even now I still look back in shock!
"Mama," Talika said shaking me.
"Yes sweety," I smiled.
"I need the toilet," She whispered.
"Jas how far are we from the shoot?" I asked who was sat opposite us in the limo.
"We're basically here just have to turn," She said pointing at the building.
"Don't worry we're nearly there." I whispered to Tali.
"Thank you mama." She gave me a peck on the cheek. I gave her a kiss on the forehead.
I whispered to her, "Next time listen to aunty Jasmine she asked you to use the toilet at school when we picked you up."
