Blossom

I felt a little bit better with the future divorce later at night. Jason had a long talk with me about how it was for everyone's happiness. That it lifted weight off his shoulders to cut off the dead and felt like switching pages. I felt better when Jason suggested watching a disney movie and I actually felt relieved that Alyssa and Madison would be officially out of this home by tonight.

20 minutes into Finding Nemo, Jason's phone rang and as the screen lit up, so did his face.

"Hey." He cheesed into the phone. He bit his lip as the person on the other side of the line spoke. "Hmm. Maybe later." He said.

I tried focusing on the movie but I also couldn't stop being extremely curious about the person whom had earned Jason's soft voice. And his giggles.

"Now? Oh you're outside? Sure. Come on up."

Yes, I thought to myself. Mystery person wasn't going to be so much of a mystery anymore.

He hung up and looked up at me. "My friend is coming over for a little bit. I'm sure she doesn't mind watching this movie with us. Maybe I can make some hot chocolate?"

"Yeah that would be great." I smiled, getting kind of nervous.

Alyssa snook her head out of her room as soon as the door bell went off. "Is it Mommy?"

"No." Jason answered without emotion.

The door revealed a beautiful, breath taking young woman. Her chocolate skin was complimented with some nice shimmering red lipgloss and amazing highlight.

"Hey, Jason." She gave him a hug and then she looked at me. Before we had the chance to greet, Alyssa voiced an animalistic grunt and threw her door shut.

"The little one had her first period today. Ignore it. She's just impatient to get out of here."

"Oh." The girl giggled and took a step forward. "Can I have a hug? Or should we shake hands?" She smiled at me and I couldn't do anything other than stretch out my arms and embrace her. Goodness, she smelled great. And she was one of those huggers who stroked your back while hugging. I liked her.

"Blossom, this is my co-worker and good friend, Isabela and Isabela, meet my daughter Blossom."

"That's a beautiful name." Isabela put her hand over her heart.

I blushed. "I love yours too."

"Aww. Thanks, girl."

"So.. Finding Nemo is still rolling. Have a seat and I'll be right there with some hot chocolate." Jason grinned and pointed with his entire arm towards the living room.

Isabela took her coat off and placed her high heels nicely next to my shoes.

"Actually, Blossom. Maybe you can show Isabela around the apartment? She's never been here."

"Sure." I smiled.

I started off with the master bedroom. What should I have called it? It wasn't Jason and Maddie's. "This is where Jason sleeps." I just pointed to the door.

Next was Alyssa's room and I opened the door up. "And here lives the monster creature herself, my little sister."

"I can hear you, Blossom. And who the fuck are you?" She asked Isabela.
