Jasmine lay on the mattress in the middle of the floor. She was unaware of the time, but she knew it was late.
She knew she should be asleep right now, but instead she just lay there, blinking at the naked walls around her. In this moment, they seemed suffocating. Her new room made her feel so claustrophobic, while also feel so... alone.
As she rolled onto her side and closed her eyes for the thousandth time this hour, a tear fell out of her eye. Jasmine felt it slowly roll down her cheek, and eventually into her ear, slightly muffling Pheobe Bridgers' delicate voice in her headphones.
Out of frustration, she ripped the cords from her ears, before forcefully sliding her phone across the hard wood flooring. It hit the opposite wall hard, but Jasmine couldn't care any less.
Instead she closed her eyes one last time, and let herself fall into the black hole of exhaustion.

This story was actually inspired by a dream I had the other night, so I'm just tryna get it out on to paper at the moment.
I know this is real short but it's just the prologue, and I promise the actual chapters will be much longer :)
Anyway, enjoy!
