[Cade]

Today I am out of the office for once, and I’m working on some academic work for the college. My mom put in a good word for me at the university, so I am assisting with some curriculum for the students in the college of medicine. I really love being a doctor. I love helping people. I also love assisting with academia and definitely see myself getting into lecturing. 

While I’m working, I hear someone call my name. 

Voice: Hi Cadence. 

You have got to be fucking kidding me. 

Cade: Ava? Ava: It’s been some time.  Ava: You look amazing.  Cade: *Silent* Ava: Can I sit down with you? 

Cade: I’m not sure that’s a good idea. 

Ava: I promise, I’m not here to cause drama.  Ava: I just happened to see you and wanted to say hi. 

*Ava sits down*

Cade: Did you send me flowers? Ava: You got them, I was afraid you didn’t. Ava: I did. I just wanted to congratulate you on your achievements. 

Cade: Well, thank you; however it was not necessary.  Cade: I shouldn't even be talking to you. 

Ava: Why? Because of your wife? Cade: No, because I had a restraining order against you, Ava.  Cade: In fact, I’m going to go.  Ava: Cade, wait. Can I just say this… Ava: I’m sorry.  Ava: I never wanted our friendship to end so turbulent. 

Ava: I know what I did was wrong, and I’ve been paying for it since the last time I saw you.  Ava: I’ve been working on myself the last few years, and I promise; I'm not that person anymore.  Cade: That’s good to hear.  Ava: I was hoping maybe we could catch up.  Cade: Ava, we are not friends. 

Ava: I know. I’m hoping maybe after we have lunch, you’ll reconsider.  Cade: There’s nothing -  Ava: Just think about it, please.  Ava: If you decide to do it, I’ll meet you back here on Friday at noon. 

Ava: I’m really happy I got to see you, Cadence. 

*Ava walks away*

After seeing my last patient, I pack up and head home. Once home, I see Taylor has already started dinner, and the girls are playing in the living room. 

Cade: Babe, I’m home.  Taylor: Hey babe! I just started dinner.  Cade: I see, do you want some help? Taylor: Nah, I got it. You rest, you worked all day.  Cade: I like to help you.  Taylor: You’re so sweet.  Cade: You’re the sweetest, with your little surprise today.

Taylor: What surprise? Cade: Ha ha, the flowers you sent me!  Taylor:....... I didn’t send you flowers today?

Cade: C’mon, stop.  Taylor: Babe, I’m serious. I didn’t.  Cade: What? Then who sent me…. Taylor: You got flowers today?

Cade: Yeah, a big beautiful bouquet. It even had a note.  Taylor: What did the note say? Cade: “Gorgeous flowers for the most gorgeous woman in the world.” Taylor: Excuse me? Cade: I thought they were from you babe?

Taylor: Who would be sending you flowers, leaving you notes like that? Cade: I have no clue babe.  Cade: I genuinely thought it was you. Taylor: I know, I’m not upset at you.  Taylor: I would like to know who the fuck is hitting on my wife!?

Cade: I would have no idea sweetie.  Cade: Don’t work yourself up about this.  Cade: I will just discard them tomorrow, okay?

Taylor: Okay.  Taylor: Now I have to buy you bigger and better flowers.  Cade: *Giggles* They would be better regardless! 

Taylor: Damn right.  Cade: I love you.  Taylor: I love you too. 

[Kaige]

I left to take a walk last night because I needed to calm down. After walking around the block, I realized how fucking stupid I acted. I know she doesn’t want to be with him. I know she doesn’t love him. I just got so jealous so fast. I love her so much, and I lashed out for no reason. When I got back, she was in bed sleeping and I didn’t want to wake her, so I just got in bed and went to sleep. I planned to apologize profusely this morning. It's the day of our wedding. She needs to be the happiest she’s ever been. Wait - Where is she?

Kaige: Dani?

She’s not in bed. Maybe she got up to start getting ready. I get out the room and go downstairs, and everyone is sitting in the living room worried. 

Kaige: What is going on? Dakota: Do you know where Dani is? Kaige: She’s not here???? Cai: I went to wake you guys up but she wasn’t in bed so I went around to find her, and she’s not here.  Kaige: She’s gone??? Dakota: Do you know why she would be gone? Kaige: Fuck. 

*Kaige starts to cry*

Cade: What?? Kaige: We had a slight argument last night… She’s probably mad at me. Fuck.  Theo: I’m sure whatever it was, you can work it out.  Kaige: Well I was going to this morning, but she’s gone.  Kaige: I ruined my wedding, I just ruined our fucking wedding.  Dakota: No one's wedding is ruined.  Theo: Do you know where she might’ve gone? Kaige: I know no clu- wait. I do know where she is….  Kaige: I’ll be back. 

Dani most likely went to clear her head or needs to think. She goes to one particular spot near our house. I head over there to apologize and bring my wife back so we can finally get married. 

Kaige: You want some company….? Dani: Aren't you mad at me…… Kaige: No, I’m not. I’m actually quite disappointed in myself. 

Dani: I swear, I don’t have any feelings for him. It was just a nice speech.  Kaige: I know, I know. You don’t have to explain.  Kaige: I however need to profusely apologize.  Kaige: I’m sorry babe, I’m so sorry.  Kaige: I was so stupid last night. You didn’t deserve that, at all. I love you so much, and I just got extremely jealous; but there was no reason for me to be, because I know you love me. 

Dani: I do, very much.  Kaige: I’m sorry, I’m so so sorry Daniella. 

Dani: Thank you.  Kaige: Can we get married now? Hell we can do it right now in our pjs, I don’t care.  Dani: My dad would kill me if I didn’t wear that expensive ass dress *Laughs* Kaige: *Laughs* then let's get ready.  Dani: Yeah, let’s get ready.  Kaige: 🎶 We’re getting married 🎶 Dani: *Giggles*

First things first is work. I got into modeling after helping my aunt with an event one evening. She received a lot of praise with my spread and offered me a contract at her agency. She opened NAYA MODELS (or Ayan backwards) about two years ago with Oba. Asa is also a model under NAYA. We don’t get special treatment whatsoever. In fact my mom made sure my aunt was very fair with me. I appreciate it, as it allows me to prove I am a good model and I am working hard. Besides, there are far better models here.

Take Jazmyne for example; She’s been here since they opened, and her career took off. She’s done so many campaigns with so many designers. She’s also very sweet, and we have become very close. I’m pretty sure she also has a crush on my brother. I saw them flirting with each other when I invited her over to the housewarming recently…. 

My aunt and I meet for about 45 minutes and then she goes and grabs the newbie. I’m excited to get to know her, my aunts have been raving about her. 

Ayan: Dani, sweetie, this is Kaige. Kaige, this is my niece, Dani. 

Wow, she's incredibly pretty…. 

*Dani smiling and staring* 

Kaige: Nice to meet you Dani. 

Kaige: One of the guy models told me I was the prettiest one here, but I see he was lying. 

Dani: *Blushes* Ayan: My wife told me you were a sweet talker… 

Kaige: I think I’m pretty sweet. 

Ayan: Trayce better watch out. He might have some competition.  Dani: *Nervous Laugh* Oh stop. 

Kaige: I was thinking we should go to lunch to get to know each other, since we have an upcoming campaign together.  Dani: Yeah, let’s go!

When I got home, Taylor was watching TV in the living room. The girls are upstairs playing in their room, so I’m going to talk about this now while they aren’t around….

I am so fucking nervous. 

Cade: Hey baby.  Taylor: Welcome home! I was wondering when you’d get back.  Cade: Before we get too comfy, can we talk about something.  Taylor: Is something wrong? Cade: No, it shouldn’t be.  Taylor: What’s going on?  Cade: I ran into Ava the other day.  Taylor: What.  Cade: She showed up at the coffee shop I was working at.  Cade: She also was the one who sent those flowers. 

Taylor: Are you fucking kidding me? Taylor: She’s stalking you now? Cade: I wouldn’t say that.  Taylor: Then how the fuck did she know where you were and where to send you flowers?

Cade: Well I’m a doctor, you can easily search my name and my location will show up babe. 

Taylor: We’re getting a new restraining order, tonight.  Cade: Wait.  Cade: I met with her today, to tell her- Taylor: You met up with her?

Taylor: Without me?

Cade: Your sister was watching from another table.  Cade: I didn’t have you there because I just wanted her to hear it from me, that I don’t want her in my life. 

Cade: I told her I wouldn’t get another order if she would just let me go. She agreed. Taylor: And you believed her???

Cade: I want to see if she has truly changed as she stated.  ........... Taylor: Well, looks like you got it handled.  Taylor: I’m going to get dinner started. 

Cade: Are you upset with me? 

Taylor: I’m disappointed that you couldn’t tell me.  Cade: Baby, I- Taylor: It’s okay. I’ll be fine.  Taylor: You should get comfy and see the girls.  Taylor: I’ll start dinner so we can eat. 

I’d rather her get mad and yell than shut down like she just did. I just wanted to nip it without causing chaos or involving legal aspects again. I feel horrible now…. 

Well.. I guess I’ll get ready for dinner….
