The Surprise
"Ring! Ring!" Margo picks up her phone not looking at the caller ID
"So you decide to call me Jennifer" Margo calling out her friend and employee when she feels like writing. A husky voice came over the line. "Margo, this is Jonathan Hart"
"Oh sorry Jonathan, what can I do for you!"
"I need a favor Margo"
"Anything for you Jonathan" He smiled on the other end of the phone
"Make sure my wife meets you at the Aroma Restaurant tomorrow, that it Margo"
"Can I ask what you are planning?"
"It's a surprise Margo just set back and enjoy the ride" Jonathan and Margo hang up his cell and called his right hand man in Hart Industries Entertainment department Finch MORGAN.
Jonathan explains to Mr. Morgan his plans for Jennifer and what his part would be. Finch was to have R. Kelly at the Aroma Restaurant after Jennifer and Margo arrive. He is to serenade her with these songs the following order first one is When Woman Loves, Love Letter, and Radio Message. Jonathan went on to tell him not to take no for answer from Mr. Kelly.
It distressed Jonathan sometimes at the favors his wealth got him but when it came to Jennifer he had no quandaries asserting the power his wealth brought him.
Home Again:
Once back at the beach house Jennifer retried to her room and Max checked the messages, it was all for Mrs. H. her editor Margo.
Jennifer sat back on their bed and opens her laptop hoping to have an email from that one special person she was missing. There was no emails form him, Jennifer sent Jonathan an email:
To my darling Jonathan
I love you darling.
I'm sorry for being late again but I promise I still had fifteen minutes. When you get back we need to talk darling, remember we promise not to keep secrets for one another or skeletons in the cupboard. My sweet sailor what are you keeping from me in Mexico? I promise to be by your side forever and for always no matter what we might face. I'm madly in love with you Jonathan so much that I can't breathe some times. Darling every moment I spend with you feels like a dream and I don't what to wake up. My beloved when you are not with me, it is our memories that brighten up my gloomy days.
Jonathan when I hear your voice I can feel my heart skip a beat. While we are together, it feels like I'm a part of a fairytale. My darling you have pumped a new life into me. For you loving me I feel like a completely different person and more confident about myself. Thank you so much, for walking into my life and transforming it into something so wonderful. I thank God every day for blessing me with your love.
My sweet sailor, thank you for marrying me and loving me for the person I am. I make a prayer that no treachery, jealousy, envy, betrayal, lies or misunderstandings comes between us. Who needs superheroes and romantic novels to fantasize? I have you and that is more than enough for me! Jonathan I'd rather replace my words of love for your tender kisses of love. It's a much better deal, isn't it my sweet?
Love your darling wife, Jennifer Hart
Max walked to the Hart's bedroom door and knotted softly.
"Mrs. H can I come in" Max asked
"Yes, what's going on Max?"
"Your editor wants you to call her ASAP, Mrs. H sounds important." Max looked at her as she set up on the bed with tears in her eyes.
"Max has Jonathan called?
"No, Mrs. H he hasn't"
"Everything is important when it comes to Margo." Jennifer said in mumble, picking up her cell to call Margo.
"What is so important Margo?" Margo was confirming their lunch meeting, Jonathan told her to make sure Jennifer did not back out this time.
"Jen, change of plans meet me at Aroma Restaurant on 2903 W Sunset Blvd on Wednesday" Margo explains to Jennifer. "She has a taste for Italian and no backing out this time Missy." "Jennifer just laugh" She was about to call her can cancel again. The next morning came early and Jennifer felt like she was ravenous for the first time in weeks she felt like eating breakfast. "Hay Mrs. H, what you want for breakfast?" Max could not help but notice the change in Mrs. H; see was more like herself today. Jennifer put in her request of pancakes, turkey sausage and orange juice with a blue berry muffin to top it off. She ate all her food and wanted more. "Wow, what has gotten into you Mrs. H." Max said with a sly grin on his face. He was happy to see a smile on her face and in good spirits. Within minutes after she ate, she could feel the food rising. Without saying anything to him disappeared running to Max's bathroom that was off from the kitchen. Jennifer vomited uncontrollably and then retched for a few minutes, she was exhausted. Max couldn't help but hear her, it broke his heart listening to her but he knew this was part of bringing a new life into the world. Within minutes Max carried Jennifer a cool cloth, and a pillow. Without knocking, or calling out to her, he opened the bathroom door, and suddenly Jennifer felt a caring hand on her back as she knelt crouched over the bowl, and slumped against the wall. "Lean against me, Mrs. H just let yourself relax a second" Max said calmly, as he held Jennifer's hair back. "Jennifer didn't say anything; she was too sick, but so grateful for him helping her. She slumped into Max's arms as he put the cool cloth on the back of her neck and forehead. It was nearly an hour when she finally looked up at Max and said, "I think I can get up now and get ready to meet Margo. Max will you drive me?" "Sure Mrs. H" He was really concern about her; he felt in his gut she was pushing herself not for Margo or the book deal she was working but cause she was lonely; trying to distract her mind. Jennifer walked to the couch in living. She fluffed the pillow Max gave her, and stretched out; he covered her with a light blanket. "I'll get up in a few minutes" Jennifer said, simulating a smile. "Mrs. H, you sure you're up going to this meeting this afternoon?" Max asked, with genuine concern for his friend and daughter. "Don't ask" she said, shaking her head. Max went into the kitchen, and was back a few minutes later with a hot cup of tea and a small plate of crackers. "Max, you're my savor" Jennifer said in a whisper when she saw what he had for her. "Max I'll get up in a few minutes... Thank you Max." "No need to thank me Mrs. H if I did not take care of you I would have to deal with Mr. H", he smiles. "That's what family is for Mrs. H that what you always tell me. I'll wake you in hour" he told her. Three hours had past, she didn't realize how late it was getting Jennifer got up, went up stair to her bathroom; she shower, change into casual blue and white striped chemise and pair of black pants, she brushed her hair, and joined Max downstairs. He was working on dinner like she wanted any more food. Jennifer felt better and was ready to start working on her book but she only had an hour before her meeting with Margo.
