A couple of years later, we go to a two story traditional single family home in Kansas City, Missouri . The house has a little yard and the lot is 4,356 sqft. The front of the house on the first level exterior has stone and on the second level and attic it is covered with green wood. There is a beautiful bay window on the first level. There are four bedrooms, 1 full and 1hLf bathroom. The house has a formal dinning room, a den, attic and basement. Jason got a construction gig working for his uncle in Missouri and moved them across the states. Trini ended up getting a job for a small law firm. Both of them are doing quite well.
Back in Action
Trini is standing inside her living room of her new home(it kind of looks like Buffy the Vampire Slayer's living room)while on the phone. It is Valentine's day, Trini is wearing a wear white tight fitting dress and no shoes. Her hair is in a bun. Trini walks around the room lighting some candles.
Trini:(annoyed)Kimberly what do you expect? This is Donald you're speaking about? When was the last time he showed you any romance.
Kim's voice:(angrily)Wow Trini! Really?!
Trini: What do you want me to say Kim?
Kim's voice: That this is all in my head! That he is not avoiding me! That he wants to spend time with me and our children.
Trini:(sighs)Kim(silence hits them)I'm sure he will be home soon
Kim's voice:(sighs)who are we kidding Trini? It's 7:30….he was supposed to be here an hour ago(Trini frowns)I should just get our girls ready for bed.
Trini:(softly)I didn't want this to be your Valentine's day. I am bummed for you.
Kim's voice: Don't be(sniffs)my marriage is falling apart Trini(silence)I don't know what to do.
Trini: Have you tried talking to him?
Kim's Voice: Talking is not an option. All we do is argue(chuckles)it's turning to my parents all over again.
Trini: Don't say that
Kim's Voice: It is Trini(softly)we both know it(silence)Trini he is home
Trini:(hopefully)See I told you!
Kim's voice:(simply)yeah
Henry's Voice: Happy Valentine's day Wife(Trini shivers in disgust at the sound of a kiss)
Kim's Voice:(simply)thank you husband! Thank you for the Teddy bear. He is cute(clears her voice)hey Tree let me call you later
Trini: ok! Kiss my nieces for me
Henry's voice: Happy Valentine's day Trini
Trini:(simply)you too Donald
Kim's Voice: Enjoy you night and tell Jase hey
Trini: I will(they hang up)(angrily)God I hate him
Jason: Hate(Trini jumps and turns to the door way)is strong word(Jason stands there in black slacks and a white blouse. He is holding a huge bear and flowers)hey baby!
Trini: Hey(smiles)babe(he walks over with the stuffed bear)I didn't see you there
Jason: I noticed(laughs)the huge bear must had something to do with that
Trini: No, it's your ninja like skills(they give each other a kiss)The bear is so cute(touches it)I love it
Jason: Your welcome!(smirks)So who do you hate?
Trini:(mumbles)who do you think?(crosses her arms)I was talking to Kimberly
Jason: Hmm! Oh you're talking about Dick head?
Trini:(chuckles)the one and only(sighs)I'm just ready for Kim to see that she needs to let go of him. He isn't even worth the headache. And he hasn't been a husband to her since the girls have turned one. If I could even call him one before that(angrily)I mean the…
Jason: Trini(softly)Trini(touches her chin)let's not do this tonight huh?(Trini looks him in the eyes)They are in California and we are in Missouri. It's nothing we can do about them nor their house hold(Trini sighs and nods)Baby believe me I want to go across the states, beat him up and rescue Kim too. But this is her life and her husband. She needs to make decisions in her own life and all we can do is be there incase she needs us up to pick her up.
Trini: You're right! You're right! She's just my sister!
Jason: She is mines too! I love her just as much as you do(kisses her lips and Trini smiles)Besides it's Valentine's day. We can worry about them later
Trini: Ok, if you promise(he laughs) Jason(he looks at her)happy Valentine's day baby
Jason: Happy Valentine's day(he puts the bear on the couch and hands Trini sun flowers)
Trini: Sun Flowers(smells them)in the winter(gives him a kiss)how did you pull that off?
Jason: Can't tell you my secrets(she puts the flowers down on the table)you look hot(Jason looks her up and down and Trini poses)yeah work it babe(Trini giggles and keeps posing)GOD I love you(forcefully pulls her into a hug and kisses her neck. Trini laughs)
Trini:(giggles)no wait! Wait(pulls away and takes his hand)can we eat at least?(points to the food on the floor and on a picnic basket)I slaved over a hot drive way to get it(Jason laughs)
Jason: Sorry(kisses her cheek and lets go of one of her hands)Let's eat I'm starved(they walk over and Jason helps Trini down on a pillow)
Trini: thank you(looks up at him)babe?
Jason: Yes
Trini:(smiles)you look really sexy(Jason raises his eyebrows)(laughs)what?
Jason: Are you saying I look good enough to eat?
Trini: maybe(Jason quickly sits down and catches her lips)mm(softly pulls away)whoa!(wipes his lips)I want this night to last all night long(Jason wiggles his eyebrows)
Jason: that I can agree on(they kiss again)so I love what you did with the room. I feel like I'm in an actual log cabin(leans against the couch and she smiles)
Trini: Thank you sweetie
Jason: So what did you get for us?
Trini: your favorite cheap meal(Jason smiles)Burger King(opens the tray and shows two angus burgers)
Jason: Angus burgers…..you are the best wife in the world(reaches over and pulls out a bag)and like I promised I brought desert(pulls out a box)
Trini: Key Lime Cheese cake from Cheese Cake Factory(he nods and lays it down)honey you're amazing
Jason: thank you
Trini: But I thought I was going to be your dessert for later(he looks at her and she smiles at him seductively)mm
Jason: you can be my main course(Trini giggles as Jason kisses her neck)
Trini: Quit it!(giggles)our burgers are going to get cold(Trini doesn't say anything as they meet lips. Trini leans back and Jason is now on top over her)
Jason: mm(starts kissing down her neck)who knows I think we can probably make a Valentine's baby(Trini now lets out a deep sigh. Jason stops kissing and looks at her)what's wrong?
Trini: nothing!(sits up and Jason gets off of her)lets just eat! I'm(sweetly)starving hmm!
Jason:(worried)alright(scratches his head)um Trini?
Trini:(snaps)I said it was nothing(Jason says nothing and watches as Trini starts putting out the utilizes)Do you want coke or spirit?(looks at him and he says nothing)(sighs)Jason
Jason: Now you want me to say something?
Trini: Let's not do this Jase! Please this is Valentine's day?
Jason: I think we need too! I need to know what's going on with you? Your my wife and I should know what is going on with you.
Trini: You want to know what's going on?
Jason: All of the time
Trini: Fine! My problem is that we have been trying for a baby for almost three years now. (he nods)My body has been going through so many different awful changes because of it. And we are barely making it in bills because of the IVF treatments
Jason: We're doing fine….
Trini: You don't pay the bills Jason….I know what our expenses are like(he sighs)I'm tired of getting my period every month and us getting disappointed monthly and now yearly. I'm tired of crying(he touches her shoulder)and if we don't conceive this last round. I don't want to do this anymore. I don't want to do any more treatments(they sit there in silence)
Jason: So(pulls away from her)so , I know this is your body and at the end of the day your decision. But don't I get a say in the decision you make?(she crosses her arms)This is my non existent child too. I mean Tree I want a kid. I don't think we should stop trying
Trini:(outraged)We?(scoots away)We! No this is "ME" Jason. I'm the one who can't get pregnant!
Jason: Trini it isn't…
Trini: Three years Jason(he stops talking)almost three(crying)damn years(Jason tries to comfort her)No(pulls away)No I don't want to be touched or to be told it's going to be ok because it is not. Jason you don't understand….you don't understand the pain that I'm in every day
Jason: I don't understand Trini?!(angrily)Now that is not fair! I want this baby as much as you do. I feel like less of a man because I can't provide the one thing that you want. I get it!(silence)look this will happen for us. We just can't give up
Trini: Who is not being fair now?(loudly)I can't keep doing this to myself and I won't. If you were a real husband you would be on my side about this. You wouldn't choose a "non existent baby".
Jason:(angrily)now wait...
Trini:(yells)No! This is my body and you don't have a say as to what happens to it at the end of the day.(stands)and if you want a child so badly maybe we should just spilt up and you can find someone who can have them(walks off and heads upstairs. Jason quickly stands and gets ready to go after her but stops. Jason turns to her bear and punches it a couple of times)
Jason:(angrily)Damn it(sits down on the couch and covers his face defeated)(yells)GREAT!
Trini walks into her room and takes her hair out of the bun. Trini covers her face and paces back and forth.
Trini: mmmmm(walks over to her side of the bed and sits. She then looks at a picture of her and Jason on their wedding day which is on her night stand)ugh(goes to turn it over but stops)GOD(she starts to cry and puts grabs a phone)mm(wipes her eyes and dials out)
Kim's Voice: I said(Trini puts the phone on speaker) I would talk to you later(giggles)I didn't know you would call less then ten minutes later!
Trini:(chuckles)sorry(sniffs)what are you doing?
Kim's Voice: Henry is getting a movie ready for us and the children. I'm popping pop corn. So you have about ten minutes
Trini:(softly)ok(wipes her eyes)
Kim's Voice:(worried)Trini what's wrong? Where is Jason? Is he not home yet?
Trini: He is downstairs(softly)we just got into a huge fight
Kim's Voice: About what? You two barely fight! Especially on holidays!
Trini: It was about me doing IVF. Kim I just can't do it anymore and Jason he just doesn't understand. I really do want to have his baby….but I just can't take the disappointment. He doesn't understand that at the end of the day, I am dealing with this alone.
Kim's Voice: But you are not alone….Jason is there with you every step of the way.
Trini: So he is taking the IVF shots and his body is going through changes?(Kim says nothing)exactly! I mean he is here for me physically and mentally. However, Kim he will never understand that I want to give him this baby more than I want it for myself(crying) I just can't look at him when I get my period every month. I hate seeing his eyes light up and then lose life every time I'm not.
Kim's Voice: Awe! Trini(sighs)I'm so sorry(softly)hold on ok?
Trini: ok(Kim clicks over and Trini wipes her face. A couple of seconds later Kim comes back)
Kim's Voice:(softly)Trini
Trini:(softly)Yeah
Aisha's Voice: Happy Love day….Love bug
Trini:(laughs)hey Sha!(sniffs)Kim you didn't have to call her! It's Valentine's day!
Aisha's Voice: It's fine! I'm at work until 9pm. Adam and I will start Valentine's day a little late. Well, actually we will end it a little late(giggles)we celebrated this morning and then we celebrated during my lunch break and one of my 15minute breaks
Kim:(sighs and mumbles)At least someone is getting some
Trini:(chuckles)She always gets some.
Aisha's Voice: I disagree! Adam and I went on a dry spell for over a month. We haven't had relations since New Years day(sighs)because of an argument
Trini: About what?
Aisha's Voice: AJ of course! Long story short...He wanted private school and I say it's nothing wrong with her public school. We went to a public school!
Kim's Voice:(teasingly) So who won?
Aisha's Voice: I did DUH(happily)and he apologized with some diamond earrings today and I apologized by giving my husband the biggest BJ today(Trini now burst into laughter. Kim sighs)
Kim's Voice: You annoy my life(laughs)so much! That is to much enough information.
Aisha's Voice: To each it's own!
Trini:(laughs)I agree with Kim(sniffs)but thanks for the laugh.
Aisha's Voice: Look I needed for you two to know that I'm not that much of a bunny. I can hold out for months when I'm angry.
Kim: You surprised me! Last week you two seemed ok!
Aisha: We know how to act in public(they laugh)no I forgave him sometime last week. But my period came on and then our schedules didn't give us a chance to be at home at the same time so…a month and almost three weeks without nookie(they laugh)and in all honesty I almost died(they laugh)So Tree!, What's wrong? Why are you not with Jason?
Trini: We had an argument! I told him that I don't want to do IVF anymore
Aisha's Voice: too much on your body?
Trini:(softly)yeah I can't take it anymore!
Aisha's Voice: and the disappointment is getting to you?
Trini: How did you know?
Aisha's Voice: I'm Going to be Dr. Aisha Park in a couple of months. I see this constantly with women who do IVF. How did you deliver the news to Jason on not wanting to do this any more?
Trini: mmm(sighs)Harshly! All of my anger about not having a baby came streaming out. I didn't give him a chance to say anything really. I just kept yelling (sighs)guys I feel horrible about it. I told him that if he wanted a baby so bad….that we should split and he can find someone who can give him a baby.
Kim's Voice:(gasp)Trini
Trini: I know(sniffs)I know
Aisha's Voice: It's ok Trini! We all say things that we don't mean
Trini: I didn't mean it(sighs)I don't want to lose him. He is the love of my life! He makes me laugh and feel beautiful every day. He makes me feel like a Queen. Like I'm the most important girl in his world.
Aisha's Voice: Awe Trini….that's so special
Kim's Voice: and it's true! Trini you are his everything!
Trini:(sniffs)Ladies, I rather him find someone who can give him his hearts desire, instead of regretting me in the long run for not giving him a child.
Kim's Voice: He could never do that Trini.
Aisha's Voice: You are all that he wants. Trini listen you need to talk to him. Tell him what you are afraid of. It is Jason's job as your husband to abolish those doubts and fears that you have.
Kim's Voice: and you have to let him! Don't tell him that he doesn't understand and that he never will. Because it's not fair that you tell him his feeling. You don't know how he feels.
Trini: Your right(sighs)it's not!
Aisha's Voice: Trini I hate to tell you this! But, you're husband is a good man(Trini now laughs)IVF is a hard thing to handle and it makes your hormones go crazy. It is ok that you feel the way that you do and it is ok to argue with your husband. BUT IT IS NOT OK to be mad for a month and to not have sex at all(dramatically) believe me!(Kim and Trini now laugh)I was trying to punish Adam but I realized that I was just punishing myself….he is irresistible at times
Kim's Voice: Eww! Gross!
Aisha: That's ok that you don't think so! That's my Frog Prince
Henry's Voice:(calls)Kim we are ready
Kim's Voice:(calls)coming(on the phone)I have to go!(sweetly)Trini are you alright?
Trini: I'm much better! I'm going to apologize to my husband
Aisha's Voice: and if all fails! You can One, call me back or Two, give him the best BJ in the world. It always makes up for anything you say.
Kim's Voice:(disgusted)do you ever stop?
Aisha's Voice: Negative(they laugh)good night ladies
Kim's Voice: Good night
Trini: Night I love you two!
Aisha/Kim Voice: Love you too
Aisha's Voice: Call me if you need me!
Trini: I will(they hang up and Trini puts her phone down. Trini looks at her wedding picture and picks it up. She stands and walks out seeking Jason.)
When she walks downstairs, Jason is sitting on the bottom of the stairs. He looks up at her and stands. Trini slowly walks down still holding the picture close. When she hits the landing they don't say anything to each other. Trini takes his hand and he quickly kisses it. She smiles and leads him to the pillows on the floor. He allows her to sit and he sits next to her. She puts the picture down in front of them. They look at it and then each other)Eight years ago I said "I do" and I meant it. I want my marriage babe(His eyes soften) forever and even past that. I want you Jason Scott
Jason: and I've always wanted you Trini Kwan-Scott. Nothing can or will ever change that. Not even a baby(Trini goes to respond)Look, I understand that you want to give me this child. I know that you want to make me happy, because Trini that's just the sweet person that you are(Trini smiles as he kisses her nose)but my job is to make sure you are happy.
Trini: You do every day babe!(he plays with her hair)
Jason:(softly)I don't want you to feel like you are disappointing me because you don't. You are a damn good wife to me.(softly)I don't want to lose you
Trini: and I don't want you to fall out of love with me(Jason nods "no" as she starts crying)because I can't give you the one thing that your heart desires.
Jason: That is you(kisses her)my heart's desire is you(wipes her eyes)It will always be you. I can't imagine my life without you. I can not imagine having a family without you. You are my better half and I'm not letting you go anywhere(Trini now kisses him passionately and Jason falls back into the couch surprised. They start kissing with their tongues but stop when they can no longer breathe)Wow!
Trini: I love you so much baby!(he holds her tightly) You are an amazing man and I'm never letting you go neither. I'm sorry for the things that I said to you….I'm sorry for saying that you'd never understand. I shouldn't have told you your feelings and your thoughts. Those are your own.
Jason: It's ok
Trini: No it's not! And I shouldn't have suggested that we split! I'll never do that again(he pops her bottom and she jumps surprised)
Jason: You better never do that again….or else I'll tell your parents that you are trying to get rid of eight years of marriage(Trini laughs and he pops her again)
Trini: Yes husband(they kiss again and Trini sits up and letting him get up)
Jason: If you want to stop the treatment honey! I support you 100%! There is nothing wrong with adopting. One of our favorite people in the whole wide world was adopted(Trini smiles when thinking of Tommy)and he was amazing kid and is an amazing grown man(Trini nods)I mean we barely see him(Trini laughs)(laughs)but he's still an amazing man(rubs her leg)So if you want and when you are ready we can make it happen.
Trini: Let's do it next month! If I don't get pregnant…..we will try next month. We will adopt the worlds greatest kid….
Jason: yeah because she or he will have worlds greatest parents(they kiss) I think that it would be best to start next month(she nods)Trini if it happens it happens. I'm not worried….we will have a baby together(touches her face)I promise(Trini nods and he gives her a kiss that quickly gets heated)you know(pulls away)I'm not really hungry anymore
Trini: Me neither(Trini now pounces on him and he falls back on the pillows. They laugh)I love you so much Jason. More than you can imagine
Jason: I love you more babe(he kisses her, soon Trini's dress is gone and so are Jason's pants)
