junior nodded as he thought about the idea.
"i mean i'm down,why not?"

"we're all probably gonna be busy this summer,it's for the better-"

"but we should at least give it a try. this could be our last summer together,and if we have the opportunity to spend three months traveling around the country,i say why not?"

"oh my god,you both look so good!"
jackie jumped up and down,looking at destiny's prom dress.

destiny laughed as she fixed her hair before hugging miles.

"okay pictures pictures."

jackie rushed destiny and miles together before taking multiple different pictures of them,from different angles.

"okay okay,mama,that's enough. can we go now?"
she asked with a sigh.

jackie smiled before nodding,hugging her husband.

"i'll drive!"
miles yelled as they exited the door,closing it behind them.

jackie and her husband sat down at the island as they began conversing,aaliyah watching tv on the couch with rocco.

"ohh i'm so happy for them. i hope they have fun and don't stay out too long."
she explained.

"yeah,hopefully,i was thinking about giving them a curfew but i think they're a bit too old for that."
james lugged making them do the same.

james asked the two if they would like a snack before walking to the pantry,jackie turned looking back at aaliyah.

"aaliyah baby,why didn't you go to prom? you would've looked gorgeous in one of my dresses?"
she asked.

aaliyah let out an awkward laugh as she focused her attention on the screen.
"thanks,it just didn't work out,that's all."

jackie hummed with sympathetic smile.
"that's okay,all will be well."
aaliyah looked back and nodded before letting rocco.

"how about we go out to eat?"
james asked as he wiped his hands with the rag.

"it's not too late,the kids are out,we can talk and get a few drinks if you guys want?"
james asked.

they both nodded before getting up,preparing to leave.

"aaliyah? you coming,you haven't ate anything all day?"
james asked as he slipped on his shoes.

aaliyah shook her head as she laid down on the couch,pulling the blanket up to her shoulders.

"i'll bring you back something okay?"
james told her as he took his keys off the hook.

she nodded,"drive safe"
she told them as they closed the door.

aaliyah sighed as her and rocco laid on the couch,sulking in gushers and sad drama movies from ten years ago.

"are you having fun?"
jessica asked as she leaned in to talk,sipping her punch.
