Day 2

Invitation/Family problems

"Okay, I want Kitana, Uncle Johnny… who am I missing?" Jacqui said as she writes down a list of people who to invite to her wedding. Takeda and Jacqui were in her bedroom sitting on her bed. Takeda was thinking on who to invite that was not on the list.

"I do not know, from what I see on your list, you seem to have invited everyone you care for." Takeda said. At that same moment Vera came into the room holding some invitation cards in her hands.

"Oh sweetie look at these cards!" Vera says as she hops onto Jacqui bed, she hands her daughter the invitations cards, it was blue with Shiria Ryu wedding writing in both Japanese and English. She opens the card and reads:

"Be here to witness the binding of Jacqui and Takeda. Location, ect, food, ect and yap yap yap!" Jacqui said as she hands the invitation back to her mother. Vera was looking through Jacqui list of people to invite, she did not look happy.

"Where is your family?" Vera asked her daughter, Takeda looks up at her.

"Family?" Takeda asked.

"Yea, her sister, grandparents, cousins and uncles and everyone. All I am seeing are your friends and people not from this planet." Vera said, Jacqui tries to take the list from her mother but Vera slaps her hand away.

"You have a sister?" Takeda asked, making Jacqui look at him with confused eyes.

"No! I don't have a sister, I am the only child!" Jacqui said, making Vera glare at her.

"Jacqui! You never told Takeda about Veronica?" Vera asked. Jacqui sighed.

"No, because I love him." Jacqui said before looking at Takeda. "I have an older sister name Veronica, there mom, you happy?" Jacqui asked.

"We have known each other for five years, and you have never told me you had a sister!" Takeda said.

"I never told you about Veronica for certain reasons."

"That would be?" Takeda asked.

"You speak her name she comes…" Jacqui said as she grabs the list from her mother hand, she then jumps off her bed and walks over to her closet. "Look, Veronica is not coming to my wedding, nor is anyone else from family expect you and dad, so drop it!" Jacqui shouted.

"I will not drop it, you are inviting your family! Especial your sister!" Vera shouted at Jacqui, her daughter turns around and looks at her with widen eyes.

"Okay, how about this, I invite everyone BUT Veronica?" Jacqui said, making her mother give her the motherly look of shame.

"Today I will call Veronica to come here with her family to have a nice lunch." Vera said, making Jacqui look at her mother as if she had lost her mind.

"Mom I am begging you, PLEASE do not bring her here or tell her about my wedding!" Jacqui said. "I do not want that girl near me OR Takeda!" Jacqui shouted. Vera rolls her eyes before standing up from the bed and walking towards Jacqui door. She looks back at her daughter with shame.

"I raised you better than that Jacqui, I hope to see you here at 12 for lunch with your family." Vera said, she then leaves the room. Jacqui grabs a shirt from her closet, puts to her face and then screams in it. Takeda just watch in horror as his wife losses her cool. When she was done screaming and shouting, she walks over to Takeda and throws her body on her bed. Takeda lays on top of her then kisses her neck, making Jacqui smile and laugh.

"I love you." She said.

"I love you too." He tells her before kissing her on the lips.

"Why do you hate your sister so much?" Takeda asked, making Jacqui sigh.

"It's an extremely long stor-Jacqui!" Cassie shouted as she runs into her best friends bed room, she face was covered in black eyeliner. She pushes Takeda off Jacqui and jumps on her for a back hug. Jacqui sits up from her position and hugs Cassie.

"What's wrong?" Jacqui asked.

"SHE KILLED BOBBY JO!" Cassie shouted as she cries even more into Jacqui shoulder.

"Bobby Jo?" Takeda asked.

"Her car." Jacqui answered. "What happen?"

"Sonya killed my car! She ran it into another car, then another car smashed into it! Oh Jacqui, Bobby-Jo is damage beyond repair!" Cassie shouted as Jacqui hugs and pats her back. "Bobby-Jo was my first love! Now he's dead!"

"Maybe now you can actually get a real man." Takeda mumbled, Cassie looks at, she then kicks him in the face before continuing to cry. Outside of her room was Sonya, she was with Vera in the kitchen getting coffee.

"So, have you told Johnny yet?" Vera asked her friend as she pour herself a cup of coffee.

"No, I think its best he doesn't know." Sonya says as she reaches out for the cup of coffee, but Vera swipes her hand away and gives her a glass of orange juice.

"Coffee not good for a pregnant woman." Vera said, Sonya sighed.

"I feel awful, and not morning sickness awful. I was in Cassie car when I got the news, I wasn't paying attention and three cars hit me." Sonya said. "I killed my daughter first car and now she won't talk to me."

"What were you doing in Cassie car?" Vera asked.

"She leant it to me because I forgot to put gas in my car. Ugh, I feel stupid." Sonya said as she looks down at the kitchen counter, she saw of plans for the upcoming wedding. "So, how's the planning going?"

"Good, till I found out that she wasn't going to invite her sister!" Vera said, she sounded really pissed. "I know sisters hate each other but not calling one to go to a wedding, that is bull shit!" Vera said. "Anyway, she will be here in a few minutes and we can discuss this issue. Maybe I can convince her take make Veronica to her maid of honor."

"I thought Cassie was her maid of honor." Sonya asked.

"I know, but maybe they can both share the title. Veronica has change and I want her to be part of Jacqui life. I mean, you only get one sister…or two…or three…of 100." Vera said.

"Oh dear god, good luck with that." Sonya said. Vera looks at her watch and saw that her daughter Veronica would be at her house in an hour.

"What should I cook…" Vera asked herself.

"Pizza!" Sonya said with a smile on her face. Vera looks at her with a lazy smile on her face. "Sorry, cravings." Sonya said with a smile on her face. Jacqui and Cassie were looking through Jacqui closet for something to wear. Cassie pulls out a white lace maxi dress that she had bought her from a fancy high class store with expensive as all hell clothing. Jacqui takes the dress and begins to strip away her clothes, as she did this Takeda could not help to ask:

"Why do you hate your sister so much?" Takeda asked.

"Because she is an attention hogging, manipulative, selfish, cold hearted bitch!" Jacqui shouted as she puts on the dress. "She made my life a living breathing hell! And whenever we were together it was ALWAYS about her!" Jacqui said.

"I think you're over reacting babe." Takeda said, making Cassie giggle and Jacqui glare at him.

"Takeda, listen to me when I say this. Veronica will still the spot light, trust me." Jacqui said.

"She always did." Cassie commented.

(2 hours later)

Jacqui was in the helping her mom make food while Takeda and Cassie set the table. Originally Cassie was about to leave the house but when she heard that Veronica was coming, she thought it would be funny to watch. Sonya stayed to help Vera cook and Jax was just sitting at the couch having a beer because he knew shit was about to hit the fan. Takeda was wearing his NORMAL cloths, AKA, a long grey shirt and some jeans Jacqui bought him. The doorbell rings and everyone stops what they were doing, Jacqui sighs as she looks down at the food she made. Vera smiles as she walks over to the door with a smile on her face.

"Okay everyone, smile!" She said, everyone but Jacqui buts a smile on her face. Vera glares at Jacqui but she did not smile. Vera sighed before opening the door. Jacqui sighed as her sister Veronica came in. She looked just like but she looked more…feminine. She had long red weave in her hair and had on thick eyeliner with blue eye shadow that matched the color of her top. She had on a long sleeve top with black jeans, with black pumps. She had on golden hoop earrings and gold chains around her neck. Jacqui sighed as the very sight of her and her husband and three boys, who were her nephews. The three boys run into the house and begin screaming and throwing their toys around the house. Jax chases them and started to play around with them. Veronica smiles.

"Hello everyone! Long time no see huh?" Veronica said, she sound like a bubble head. Cassie and Jacqui roll their eyes as they set the table, Takeda was getting the food ready, much to Vera anger.

"Veronica, how have you been?" Vera asked her older daughter.

"Bored, life is so boring being…" Veronica looks up to the roof and begins to think, Jacqui on the other hand answered her right away.

"A gold digger?" Jacqui said, making her mom and sister look at her.

"What did you say?" Veronica asked.

"Nothing!" Jacqui said with a fake smile plastic on her face. "LUNCH IS READY!" She shouted. She sets the table with chicken, corn bread, mac and cheese, cooked spinach, calloo-greens, sweet potato pie and mash potatoes with gravy (I am sorry, I had to…). Cassie is the first to take a seat and start to make her plate.

"God I love your food." Cassie said. Jacqui sits next to her and Takeda takes a seat next to Jacqui and one of Veronica's sons. When everyone was seated Veronica spoke:

"Oh I missed your cook." She said as she grabs a plate. Jacqui only takes a piece of chicken and some spinach, making Veronica ask:

"What's wrong Jacqui, you don't like mom cooking?" She asked.

"It's not that, I am not that hungry right now." Jacqui said, she picks up her fork and pierced the green food, she twirls it a bit before before putting her fork down. Takeda looks at her for a while before leaning towards her ear to ask:

"Is something wrong?" He asked.

"No…just not hungry." Jacqui said. Vera looks at one of her grandsons to ask:

"How is school?" She asked.

"It's hell!" He shouted at her. Jacqui rolled her eyes, she knew in her heart that this was not going to be a fun evening. Veronica looks at Jacqui again to ask.

"Why aren't you eating?"

"I am not that hungry." Jacqui answered again.

"Then why put mom through all this hard work?" Veronica asked.

"If she is not hungry she does not need to eat." Vera said.

"No mom, it's rude!" Veronica said. Jacqui looks at Cassie, leans into her ear and said:

"Go in the kitchen and make me a BIG sour apple martini." Jacqui said. Cassie nods her head as she stands up from the table, she takes her plate with her as she walks to the kitchen. Jacqui then picks up her fork, stabs the greens with it and put it to her mouth, at that very second her nephews started to make pig snout noises that made her throw her fork down to the plate. Veronica was laughing her ass off at this, when she stopped she looks at Jacqui and said:

"I am sorry, It was too funny." She said as she laughs. Jacqui was glaring at her as if she was about to punch all her teeth out. At that very second Cassie came back with a big cup of liquor in her hand. She sets the drink down in front of Jacqui then takes a seat and continues to eat. Jacqui took the drink and started to drink.

"Ha-ha." She said as she drinks. Vera forces a smile on her face and starts talking.

"So guess what Veronica?"

"What?" she asked.

"Jacqui getting married!" Vera said, making Veronicas smile.

"Oh my god, that is great news!" She looks at Jacqui with a smile on her face. "Well I guess we will be having TWO new additions to the family." She said before looking back to her mother to say:

"I'm pregnant!" She said, making Vera stand up from her seat and walk over to Veronica and hug her.

"Oh my god! Another one! I am so exisicted!" Vera shouted.

"I know, and do not worry, I have a list of things you all can do before the birthing of my child!" Veronica said, Jacqui rolls her eyes and stands up from her seat. Vera and Veronica look at her with confused faces.

"Where are you going?" Vera asked.

"I need to take a walk. And also get away from Veronica, excuse me." Jacqui said, making Veronica stand up from her seat and walk towards her sister.

"Jacqui, this is an important moment! We are about to discuss the birthing of my child." Veronica said.

"Listen to yourself, everything about you, my pregnancy, my child birth, my fifth grade reading level." Jacqui said, making Cassie giggle.

"Well I am sorry if my pregnancy upsets." Veronica said.

"It's not that it upsets me, it's when you said it. Two seconds after telling you about my wedding and you're already changing the subject on how we are going to care for your birthing." Jacqui said.

"But that is important." Veronica said.

"Yea, like everything else in your life." Jacqui said before opening the front door. "Takeda, can I talk to you for a second." Jacqui said. Takeda stands up from his seat and walks over to Jacqui. She gently pushes him out the door and walks out behind him. When the door slammed Jacqui makes her way to the garage of her house, with Takeda behind her.

"You okay?" Takeda asked.

"Yea, I am fine, just a little tired that's is all." Jacqui said as she rubs her eyes. She looks at the cars in the garage and saw her sisters, making her frown.

"I knew she do this…" Jacqui said.

"Jacqui?" Takeda asked.

"When we were growing up…my life was so pointless." Jacqui said. "While Veronica was like the queen B, everyone loved her, everyone wanted to be, I lived in her shadow. One day, popularity disappeared because she got knocked up…that's when my parents realized they had two daughters." Jacqui said as a small tear falls down her cheek. Takeda walks over to her and hugs her.

"I am sorry." He said.

"It's okay…life…when it gives you lemons…." Her voice trails.

"You make lemonade?" Takeda said.

"No, you throw back at the person, and ask why the hell should I make lemonade?" Jacqui said, making Takeda smile as he kisses her forehead. Jacqui smiles and kiss him back before looking at her sister roofless sports car. She smiles as she gets a naughty idea in her head.

"How about we finish what we started last night?" Jacqui asked Takeda as she sits on her sister sports car hood with her legs spread out. Takeda smiles as he closes the garage door then makes his way over to Jacqui.

(An hour later)

"That was good." Jacqui said. She and Takeda were in the backseat of her sister car, both naked and hugging each other.

"A long waited moment." Takeda said as he kisses his wife neck, making her giggle.

"No joke." She said as she climbs on top of him and kisses him. He moans as they kiss each other, enjoying the blissful moment together, sadly it was interrupted when Veronica and Jax enters the garage. Takeda pulls the tarp that was over the car over them. When Jax's turned on the light Takeda and Jacqui were hidden in the darkness of Veronica car. Her sister was shouting and complaining.

"I can't believe she's not home yet! I hope she knows I am her bride's maid." Veronica said.

"Vera told you-you might be her bride's maid of honor-she didn't say it was a guaranty." Jax said.

"I should be her maid of honor, I am her sister!" Veronica said. "I have a good 7 years on Cassie."

"Yes sweetie, use that excuse, that will surely convince your sister." Jax's said. "Remember all the crap you put her throw during your younger years." Jaxs said, he then pulls out a rench before leaving the garage with Veronica behind him. She turns off the lights and closes the door. The minute it shut Jacqui jumps out from underneath the tarp and walks over to her clothes, which were hidden under the car, and begins to get dressed.

"Like hell she will be my brides' maid." Jacqui said as she puts on her bra and her boxers. Takeda jumps out the car and stop her.

"Jacqui…" Takeda said as he walks over to Jacqui.

"Do not stop me Takeda, I refuse to allow that woman anywhere near my wedding!" Jacqui said as she continues to get dress. "I swear I will smother my mother in her sleep one of these nights…" Jacqui said, making Takeda look at her as if she had lost her mind. The girl shakes the thought of her head before looking at Takeda. "I was joking…or do the rocks energy still in my system?" She says before dressing fully. She then walks to out the garage and then to her front door. She opens the door and was greeted with a cup of grape juice to her chest, leaving a big purple stain on her white dress. Jacqui gasps as her nephew laughs and sticks his tongue at her. Vera and Cassie walk towards her with widen eyes.

"Oh no, grape juice is hard to get out of this fabric." Cassie said as she examines the dress. Two seconds later Veronica comes into the room with her two other sons.

"Oh dear, what happen Jacqui?" Veronica asked, Jacqui takes a deep breathe before answering:

"Damion spilled his grape juice." Jacqui said as she stares down at her dress.

"Oh don't worry, just soak it in lime juice." Veronica said.

"That would destroy the fabric." Cassie said, she then starts to cry and hug Jacqui. "Everything I love is dying!" Cassie said, Jacqui sighs as she leans into Cassie ear to ask.

"Are you on your period?" Jacqui whispered.

"Yes!" She cried. Jacqui nods her head as she takes Cassie to the couch and sets her there. She then looks at Veronica with a confused face. She then rolls her eyes before looking at Damion to say:

"Aren't you going to say sorry?" Jacqui asked her nephew.

"Aren't you going to eat you fat pig!" Damion shouted at Jacqui. The young girl looks at her mother before looking at Veronica.

"Aren't you going to do something?" Jacqui asked, Veronica just shrugs her shoulder. Jacqui nods her head before looking back at Damion to say:

"How old are you Damion?" Jacqui asked.

"7!" He shouted, Jacqui smiles and nods her head as she examine her nephew body.

"And is that a Nintendo?" She asked.

"The New Nintendo 3DS aunty piggy!" He shouted at her. Jacqui smiles at the boy before forcefully taking the portable device away from her nephew. The boy shout and screams as tears run down his cheeks. He falls to the floor and starts to have a fit but Jacqui rolls her eyes and walks away from her nephew.

"Mine!" Jacqui said before walking back to the dinner table. She grabs Cassie plate and starts to make her a plate of food. As she did Veronica walks over to her.

"Give my son his Nintendo back." Veronica said but Jacqui ignores her. Veronica reaches for the device but Jacqui holds it out of her reach.

"I rather not, in fact, I will keep it till my wedding day." Jacqui said, making Veronica eyes widen.

"You give my son back his Nintendo right now! He is only 7 years old Jacqui."

"That is no excuse to call me a pig!" Jacqui shouted. "I have you been telling them stories about our childhood again? Have you been filling their heads with how big aunty Jacqui was?"

"It was a joke!" Veronica said.

"Yea, a joke that made me anorexic and bulimic." Jacqui said. "Five years of being called porky and fatty really puts a scare on you Veronica! But you wouldn't know because you were always miss perfect!"

"Now you sound like a jealous dwib." Veronica said. "If you still remember those small little staunts, then you have serious problems and I feel sorry for you." Veronica said. "And to be honest, I think I did you a favor. If it wasn't for those taunts you wouldn't be able to fit in a size 6."

"I am a size 7 thank you." Jacqui said. "It was because I never ate and all my exercising. But you wouldn't care. Everything was about you wasn't it?" Jacqui said before looking at Veronica. She gives her the Nintendo before walking out to where Cassie was. She gives her the plate full of food, she then turns to her mother to say:

"I need to send the invitation out, I will be back before 7. By that time I expect to see Veronica gone." Jacqui tells her mother before opening the front door. Takeda was standing in front of her when she opens the door. She smiles at him before leaving the house. Takeda watches his wife leave before entering the house. When he did he heard Veronica yelling at her mother.

"I can't she still won't forgive me for what happen 10 years ago!" Veronica shouted. Takeda takes a seat next to Cassie as she eats her food.

"Well sweetie, you can't expect someone to forgive you after years of torture."

"WHY NOT!" Veronica shouted. "I always always the giving one, if it wasn't for me she would not be as skinny as she is today! She should be thanking me!"

"Yea right!" Cassie shouted from the couch. Veronica walks over to Cassie in a fit of rage. When she was close she shouted:

"Oh shut up missy Richie pants!" Veronica shouted. Cassie sticks her middle finger at the woman, making her walking away from Cassie with her nose to the air. When she was gone Takeda looks at Cassie and Jax to ask.

"What this deal with Jacqui and Veronica?" He asked. Cassie licks her fingers of the cheese from the mac and cheese before setting her plate down on the table to answer him.

"When Jacqui was eight her grandmother died, this but her into depression where all she did was eat and everything. She still box and worked out, but she didn't do it much. A month after her grandmother Jacqui gain 100 pounds, she looked like a chubby ball of fat it was so cute!" Cassie joked. "Anyway, Veronica made it her personal duty to make fun of Jacqui every day. And her torture was not a normal ether, she would call her mean names, she would buy her clothes 10 sizes too small to her, every time she eat something she would make pig noises, and worse she would take pictures of her when she was changing or in the shower on her phone and show it off to her friends. One day she showed the picture to a boy Jacqui liked in her boxing team at school that she was going to the middle school dance with. He broke up with her…after that I didn't see Jacqui eat that much…"

She didn't eat at all." Jax muttered. "I watched my baby girl starve herself till she was a size 10, then starve herself some more till she was a 7."

"And yet she still had the strength to kill people at that age." Cassie said. "It was amazing. Anyway Jacqui hates Veronica with a burning passion for those years. And trust me when I saw that was not the worst thing she had ever done to her." Cassie said.

"Oh god it gets worse." Takeda said. Jax stands up from his seat and leaves the room, a few seconds later he comes back with a photo album. He takes a seat next to Takeda and opens the book, he turns a couple pages till he stops at a page with what looks to be a young chubby Jacqui crying her eyes out, she was standing in front of a birthday cake that had blue box on top of it.

"What's this?" Takeda asked.

"Oh dear god I remember that day…" Cassie said in a sad voice.

"Jacqui 10th birthday. A couple of months after her grandma, she put in her will that all of her jewelry were to go to Jacqui. And my mom had A LOT of expensive jewelry. So Vera and I decided to give Jacqui her grandmother jewelry on her birthday. Veronica found out about grandma last present to Jacqui and got upset. So when we brought out Jacqui cake, Veronica grabbed grandma jewelry box and smashed into her cake. We later found out she flushed the jewelry down the toilet." Jax's said, he then looks up to the roof with eyes filled with tears. "That was the last day Jacqui cried…"

"Talk about a bitch…" Takeda mumbled. At that very second, Veronica walks into the room with her purse in her hand.

"I am not going to sit here and be treated like trash! I am leaving!" Veronica shouted. "I have tried to be nice to her but you see how much of a bitch she is!" Veronica shouted, Takeda makes a grunt sound before standing up and walking over to Veronica.

"You're the bitch!" Takeda shouted, Veronica looks at him as if he lost his mind.

"Who are you and why are you here?" She asked.

"I am Jacqui fiancée." Takeda said, making Veronica stare at him in shock, she then turns to her mother to ask.

"Jacqui marry this guy? I thought she was marrying a black guy." Veronica said. Vera just face palm herself before Veronica smiles and giggles. Takeda on the other hand was not amused.

"Listen to me you back-water bubble head." Takeda said, making Veronica smile disappear. "You are invited to our wedding, but you will not be my wife maid of honor. And on my wedding day you will be on your best behavior and you will not RUIN her day. Or so help me I will rip that thing you call hair off your head in one rip." Takeda said as he gently tugs at Veronica weave. The girl looks at him with worried eyes before walking straight towards the door. She looks back at Takeda for a few seconds before leaving the house, with her sons and husband. Takeda sighs, five seconds later his world went dark because he forgot that Veronica was also Jax daughter, and be wary of a father wraith. After an hour of the events Jacqui walks into her house to find Cassie holding a steak on Takeda face. Jacqui walks over to her husband.

"Oh my god what happened!?" Jacqui shouted.

"Your fiancée told your sister off, then your daddy punched his eye out." Cassie said as she slowly removes the steak off his eye, reviling a big shiner on his face. Jacqui moans in pain as she climbs over the edge of the couch and lays on top of Takeda. She then leans down and kisses him on the lips.

"You told my sister off, I love you!" She said before leaning down and kissing him again. When the separated Takeda looks at Jacqui with his good eye to say:

"If you were fat I would still marry you." Takeda said.

"What?" Jacqui asked.

"I saw your picture when you were younger, I want you to know that I am not marrying you for your looks…okay that is 10% why I am marrying you, 40% is for your personality and 30% is your fighting spirit." Takeda said, making Jacqui smile.

"That is only 80%, your missing 20." Jacqui said, Takeda gives her a sly smirk, giving Jacqui a hint on what it was. It made her smile as she leans down to kiss him again.
