The Singer and the Fan: A Brave New Love

The Aftermath & Feelings

Jo and Kassie make their way to the hotel, so they can relieve Gizelle of Auntie duties.

On the way they stopped at a soul food restaurant and picked up some to go orders for dinner.

Jo was in the mood for some fried catfish, which is a rare occurrence and the singer's fiancée was happy to oblige by it.

Kassie has pretty much adapted to Jo's standard of eating. They switch back and forth between eating vegan, vegetarian and pescatarian, that it's their normal.

Walking out of the elevator and right into their home for the next week, the women are greeted with their loving daughter.

Ella must of heard the elevator coming because she ran right into her mothers legs, trying to hug them both at the same time.

"Mommy! Mama! I missed you. Where have you been?"

Kassie smiles at the little girl and bend down to kiss her curly mane before walking towards the dining table to put the food down.

Jo carried Ella towards the table where Gizelle was standing at drinking a bottle of water.

"What up my favorite couple? How was counseling?" Gizelle whispers the last part, so Ella couldn't hear.

"Mommy, what's counseling?" The little girl mimics her aunties words.

Jo laughs before answering.

"You're just picking everything up..." Jo whispers underneath her breathe but Ella heard that and gave her mom a big smile.

"Well baby, mommy and I are just speaking with a friend before we get married."

"What's married!" Ella rebuttals.

"It's when two people who love one another, walk down an aisle and commit to staying with each other for the rest of their lives."

Kassie jumps in as she finishes placing the food on the table.

"Oh. Okay, mommy." Ella says as she grabs a piece of cornbread and begins munching on it.

Gizelle just laughs at the little girls antics and takes a bite out of her own cornbread.

"So what did you ladies talk about?" Gizelle inquires as she takes a fork full of Mac and Cheese in her mouth.

Both of the women look at each other and wait for the other to respond.

After a tense second Jo speaks.

"Well we started answering simple questions like, "why do you want to marry each other?" Then Dr. Sherry switched it up on us and got a little deep. She - she um..."

Jo starts to stutter a little bit and Kassie grape her wrist gently, letting her know some he would take over.

"She asked us if there was ever a time that we didn't trust each other. I answered no because I haven't had a moment of such..."

Kassie looks to Jo who is slowly chewing a piece of catfish before she continues.

"...However, Jo did."

Gizelle eyebrow raises as if she's asking for more but neither woman opens up.

"Oookay...well...are you two alright now?"

"Yes. We are good."

Kassie answers before taking a bite of her own catfish.

Jo smiles hesitantly at the two women sitting across from her and continue to eat her dinner.
