*Santana had scrolled down to a video and she was about to start talking about it with jasmine, but she was distracted by the doorbell ringing. Before Santana could figure out who it was, she heard the mumbling get louder and more aggressive. Kelsey appears at jasmine's door, looking at Santana with confusion and basically telling Santana to come and help out with whatever the problem is through that single look*

Santana: *turns to jasmine and sees the fear and confusion in her eyes* it ok sweetheart! Just lay down and try to get some sleep. Ill be back once i sort this out! *smiles at jasmine and leans in to give her a quick kiss on the head before following Kelsey to where all the commotion was happening* ... what the hell is going on here! *raises her voice a little as she looks between Carlos and Roxy!

Roxy: *had been trying to get in touch with jasmine and Carlos all week but she heard nothing so she finally snapped and had to come over to see what was going on. She was not expecting for Carlos to be so aggressive and dismissive, like he really didn't wanna give her the time of day to talk with jasmine even if it was just for a minute* hey mrs lopeirce! It's good to see you. *was obviously being polite and putting her issues with Carlos aside because she respected Santana too much to drag her into their mess* i was just coming over to see if jasmine was ok. I have been trying to get in touch with her all week but i just wasn't getting a response and that worried me so much because jasmine is always so quick to text back. And she also hates missing this much work so i didn't really know what to think *smiles weakly as she waits for Santana to give her some answers*

Santana: *knows that the explanation to jasmines silence the past week, would take some time to explain. that thought alone makes her sigh because she hates that they are in this position having to talk bout jasmine facing yet another traumatic experience* I totally get your frustration! how about we all go take a seat and ill be able to tell you everything! *san takes a deep breath and leads Roxy into the living room while the rest of them follow quietly*

Roxy: *was so scared after hearing Santana's serious tone and the fact that she didn't say any jokes or sarky come backs like she usually does* what happened? *was speaking barely above a whisper because her nerves were getting the best of her*

Santana: *sat next to Roxy and reaches out to hold onto her hand to comfort Roxy as well as herself* ...its kinda hard to tell this story because now that i think of it, i wasn't actually here to see what happened! *swallows the guilt that has made its way back to her now that she isn't just pushing the situation aside, sugar coating it to try and help her be strong for everyone else*

Roxy: oh ok! *had so many questions to ask but she isn't even sure she wants to hear the answers. She doesn't wanna hear that jasmine is in trouble and isn't the bright and bubbly girl that Roxy has gotten to work with over the past few years*

Santana: ...but anyway! It was about midday last Friday i think! I got a call from the boys and they told me how jasmine had one of her panic attacks again and it led her to lock herself away in her bathroom. The boys tried everything they could to get her to unlock the door! Then After a while they told me how she started to throw things at the walls. so considering her track record of hurting herself it made them feel completely hopeless. they called me to come over because I've always been able to talk her out of her panic attacks. *paused for a moment as she started to choke up* ...sadly by the time i got there and got through to her, she had fainted. *looks down at her lap because she doesn't wanna have everyone see her break*

Roxy: *was heartbroken to hear jasmine's panic attack get to that state* thats horrible! *can see that Santana was probably blaming herself for what happened so she reaches out and holds onto Santana's hand to try and comfort her* ...so where is she now? *hates making everyone relive the incident but she has to talk with them so she can be in the loop and help out any way she can*

Santana: *composes herself and looks up at Roxy with tears in her eyes* shes in her room having a nap right now! Considering the fact that we only got her back home from the hospital this afternoon, she became very overwhelmed with all the attention being on her. So i took her through and got her settled before you got here. *smiles up at Roxy weakly like she knows what Roxy is gonna ask next*

Roxy: *as soon as she heard Santana say that jasmine was back home, she sighed in relief but she still had a frown on her face hearing about how overwhelmed jasmine got* ...i-is there any chance i could see her? *looks up at Santana with hopeful eyes*

Santana: *sighs because she thinks about the important piece of information she is yet to tell Roxy about jasmines current state since the accident* id love to say yes too you hun but... its just not the right time for her to get any more visitors crowding her just now! *she looks up and see the hope in Roxy's eyes completely disappear* ... she lost her memory and she doesn't remember anything or anyone from before the accident! We are all just a bunch of strangers to her. *smiles weakly as Roxy does the same*

Roxy: *doesn't know how to except all that she is being told right now* w-what? ... h-how? *looks around the room at everyone as they have the same sad and sympathetic looks on their faces*

Santana: *lets more tears fall* ...i wish i knew! *smiles weakly as Roxy does the same and lets herself cry as everything sinks in. In that moment san's mother instincts kicked in so she pulls Roxy in for a much needed hug. They stay like that for a few moments, until jasmine shout through for her grandma* excuse me a minute! *lets go of Roxy and gives her a quick smile of reassurance before disappearing down the hall to jasmine*
