The power of love

Is it my voice?

Yesterday was a disaster. It's morning and everyone have already left Jen och Alex's "party" . Except for Leah and Lynda. Alex wakes up two hours before Jennifer.

Alex's POV
It's already 11am and she's still sleeping 🙄🙄. I won't wake her up, I'll just let her rest so that she doesn't blame me for ruining her sleep.

Two hours later
Jennifer's POV
Omg 😳 it's already 1pm. How long did I stay up last night? I don't even remember a shit.
I've got to go check on my kids. I get got the living room and it's like hell. Glasses, plastic mugs, food, even drinks are EVERYWHERE. What's happening? I look for Alex and I see that his in the garden with Lynda. Now I Kind of get it. They are cleaning up the mess from yesterday. I really don't feel like helping them but I have to. I get to the couch trying to pick up the things and guess who I found there? Leah.
I shake her and she won't wake up.
"Bitch wake up" I say slapping her
"Fuck, what's your problem hoe?" She says waking up
I laugh and say "good morning to you to".
"Why are you sleeping here, you know there are some guest rooms right?" I say
"Do you think I had the brain of thinking about that yesterday?" She says
I help her up and she goes to the bathroom.

3 hours later
"Well, that took some time" Lynda says
"I'm gonna go and make lunch." She adds
"Lunch?" Leah says
"Yeah " she replies

1h 30 minutes later
"The food is ready.." Lynda says and everyone goes to sit on the table
I don't know if it's just me but I feel like Alex is ignoring me. Or maybe it's just me thinking.

We sit around the table and Alex won't sit next to me. At first I think maybe he just wants to sit next to max or something.
"So last night was fun" Leah says
"Oh yeah, best night ever" I reply
"Mom? Why was there so much mess in the morning today, yesterday it seemed pretty ok" max says
"It's because we did some fun grownups things after you guys left." Leah answers
"Like what?" Lucie asks
"Girl believe me you don't want your mind to be blown away " Leah replies
After that we eat "lunch" in peace.

2h later
"Jen I have to go home now, I have some things to get done. " Lynda says
"Let me drive you" Alex offers
"I'll come with you too" I say
"No it's fine, stay." Alex says
"But the kids can stay with Leah and Angelo. Right Leah" I say
"Yeah, whatever " she replies
"I said you can stay" Alex repeats
"Ok" I say I go to the bedroom
I know he doesn't want me to go but I don't care, if I want it then that's what I get. I change quickly and just when they're about to leave I get in the car.
"You're not coming with us" Alex says
"Ehh, yes I am. I changed my mind. I'm coming " I reply putting the seatbelt on
Alex sighs heavily and then drive. During the whole ride Alex only talks to Lynda as if I'm invisible or something. Every time I try to get into conversation he find a way to exclude me.

Alex's POV
Why couldn't she just stay? I mean she's being such a pain in the ass.

30 minutes later
I drop Lynda back and I'm about to drive back.
"Finally we are alone. Now tell me why you've been ignoring me all day. You know you're stuck with me right?" Jen says
I don't answer
"Papiii.." she says and has me weak
"What?" I say
"Talk to me please. Tell me what's happening. And please don't tell me it's about yesterday " she says
"Please be quiet, I'm trying to drive" I say
"Really? So you can't drive while I'm talking but you could talk when Lynda here?" She says
"I-" I say before she cuts me off
"I know it's about yesterday. Just forget it. I've forgiven now put it behind." She says
"What? You forgive me? For what? I'm the one you should be apologizing to" I say
"Wtf? For what. Oh I'm sorry because you made out with my best friend, not even once." She says
"Excuse me? I don't care if it was your best friend or not, it was a freaking game. If you're that sensitive maybe you shouldn't be starting stuff you can't handle" I say
"What? I started it? " she says
"Technically yes, it was your idea to have a party" I says
"And it was also my idea that you kiss people?" She says
"Don't change the subject, blame yourself for whatever happened. If you know that you can't stand me having fun then you shouldn't play the game in the first place" I say
"Having fun? You were the one who told me to join the game. And-" she says before I cut her off

" Please shut up, I don't want to hear your boring and annoying voice right now ." I say without thinking. Well I guess she deserves it, she said that same thing to me yesterday. Now it's her turn to know how it feels.
I'm waiting for her to answer but she's just quiet. I don't care.

Gosh this is boring, I'm waiting for her to talk again. But fucking won't. Jesus Christ, what am I gonna do? I didn't mean and now she'll probably never talk to me again.
She then opens the window and have half her face out. I watch through the mirror and she's crying. Omg, I'm doomed. Like for real doomed.

"Jen?" I say calmly but she doesn't say anything
"Are you crying?" I ask,  still no answer
"OMG you're crying" I say
"No, I'm not." She says.
Something about Jennifer is that: she's the toughest/strongest and the same time the most sensitive person ever. Sometimes she just can't control her feelings, she can cry about everything, happiness, sad, anger, confusion, honor , you name it. But this time I know it's because she's hurt. Maybe I shouldn't have said that.

"I'm sorry, I-" I say before she cuts me off
"I said I'm not crying" she says but I know it's a lie
I just turn the radio on. Music always makes her feel good. But not this time. I just drive in silence.

When we arrive she just get out of the car before I could even finish parking.

"Baby, pls wait. I didn't mean it that way" I say trying to make her stop
"Please don't get in the house this upset, I don't to be explaining things to the kids" I say and she finally stops
"What do you want?" She says without looking at me
"Don't be angry with me" I say
"I'm not angry but if keep asking me I will be" she says walking in the door and slamming it after her. And that proves that she definitely is, maybe a little space will make everything better.

08pm
"Jen?" Leah says
"Yes," Jen replies
"When are you going back to Miami?" She says
"Eh tomorrow, why?" Jennifer replies
"Good..me too, we'll take the same flight. I miss fooling around at the AirPort with you" Leah says
"Ohh Leah, of course we can take the same flight except it'll be a private one this time" Jen says
"Oh of course🙄🙄🙄 it's you "Jennifer fucking Lopez" who can't stand people so she has to take some private piece of shit." She says standing up and walking away
"What did I say? Is it my voice again?" Jen says
Alex knows that the last part was about him.
"You did say anything wrong" Angelo says
"Yes I clearly did, because look how upset she is" Jen says almost tearing up
"No, I know my wife she can be angry sometimes out of nowhere, don't mind her. I'll talk to her when she calmer" Angelo says
"I'm sure it's something I said. Maybe I should just keep my mouth shut forever since it's so fucking annoying and upsetting" Jen finally says

Alex's mind: omg she didn't forget about the thing I said in the car.
