A month later, March 10th 1990,

Both Michael and Jasmine waited at the schoolyard with the other parents, nannies or relatives to pick up their children

His bodyguards were nearby incase they were needed

"I'm glad I see you, I forgot I was supposed to call you back to pick a date for the girls next sleepover" Michael mentioned when he saw Jasmine

"I forgot you were supposed to call me, I didn't have time to check my schedule yet, the orders for summer weddings are coming in these days" Jasmine answered "I don't have flower or cake batter on me, do I? I rushed here from the bakery" she continued

"No, you're fine" Michael smiled at her

"Thank you" Jasmine blushed

"You're welcome" Michael replied

"How about Nicole and you come over for dinner? The girls can play and we could check our schedules?" Jasmine suggested

"Tommorrow night?" Michael asked

"Sure, is there anything you or Nicole is allergic to or don't like?" Jasmine asked

"Be easy on the vegatables and Nicole will pretty much eat anything you put in front of her on a plate" Michael answered

"No allergies?" Jasmine asked

"No, no allergies" Michael answered

"Ok I hope you will like what I make tommorrow" Jasmine replied

"If your cooking is as good as your baking skills I'm sure I'll love what you're making tommorrow" Michael mentioned

"You'll have to wait till tommorrow to find out" Jasmine smiled at him

They talked some more till the schoolbell went and the children ran outside to their parents, sibling, care taker or nanny that picked them up

"Daddy" Nicole smiled happily and ran into his arms when he bent down to her level and picked her up

"How was school today?"  Michael asked

"The same as everyday, can Angel come over?" she asked

"Please?" Angel asked her mother and looked at Michael too "Please?"

"I've a better idea, tommorrow after school both Nicole and her daddy come to our house and stay for dinner" Jasmine told the girls

"A sleepover?" Both girls asked hopeful and used their puppy eyes look on their parents

"We can decide that tommorrow" Jasmine answered

"Daddy can Angel sleep at my room tommorrow after the food at her home?" Nicole asked

"Let's decide that tommorrow ok?" Michael answered

"Fine" Nicole and Angel sighed before they went home, both with their own parent

The next day,

As soon as Michael and Nicole arrived at Jasmine and Angel's place the girls went to Angel's room while Jasmine was busy in the kitchen to finish up with main course since she already made the dessert that afternoon

"It smells wonderful in here, what are you making?" Michael asked joining Jasmine in the kitchen

"Mofongo, it's a Puerto Rican dish" Jasmine answered

"You're from Puerto Rico?" Michael asked her

"Si I was born there and after a few months my parents moved to California, my dad was already a bussines man and travelling a lot in the states, mainly California, Florida and New York and my mother wanted to be an actress but her career never took off with her looking after me and my sister" Jasmine explained
