Jasmine

I got out my car and grabbed my things and walked into my house.

When I arrived in my house, I rolled my eyes looking at the note on the counter. I already knew my dad was on another date with some chick. He has never been home after a couple of months my mom died.

I went upstairs into my little brothers room. He was sleeping on his bed. I kissed his cheek and accidentally woke him up.

"I'm sorry Day" That's what I call him, but his real name is Abner. My mom named him from the bible. 

"Jazzy I'm hungry"

"Okay let's go downstairs"

I grabbed Day's hand and walked him downstairs. I went in the refrigerator and grabbed the milk. I poured Day a glass of milk. Afterwards, I went into the cabinet and grabbed pasta sticks and pasta sauce. I got to cooking, but then stopped when I heard the door open.

I looked over to see my dad with a woman walking upstairs. I looked at Day and noticed he was going to say something. I shook my head hopping he would keep his mouth shut.

I finished cooking and gave Day and I a plate full of spaghetti.

"How waj yo day?" Day asked not speaking clearly.

I laughed and replied "It was good and how was yours"?

"Good" Day yelled throwing a thumbs up.

I giggled. After Day and I finished eating we cleaned up and then, sat on the couch to watch whatever Disney movie was on.  After awhile, Day and I fell asleep on the couch.

I woke up hearing someone walking downstairs. I quietly and slowly took Day off my stomach and laid him on the couch. I tucked him in and walked over to the stairs. I saw my dad and the girl he came home with walking downstairs. My dad had on shorts and the girl had on his shirt which fit like a dress on her.

They both looked drunk. I rolled my eyes. My dad is always bringing home a different girl every other night. The longest the same girl has been over here is 1 week.

"Hey dad" I said

"Hey Jasmine, it's like 2 in the morning you need to get some rest".

"It's actually 5.  I rolled my eyes and sat back on my couch. I turned on my phone trying to see if Christian texted me back. Tears came down my face. I know I am very emotional, but that is just me. I cried seeing he did not text me.

Day was still sleeping so quietly. I caressed his cheek, his cheek was smooth like a babies bottom. I don't know what I would do without Day. He got his nickname because he reminds me of sunshine which only shines in the day.

I got really bored, so I decided to just listen to my dad's conversation.

"So can I come over again tomorrow" the lady asked giggling.

"I don't know, what is your name in the first place?" My dad asked with an attitude. I could tell by his tone, he didn't like her that much.

Bing

I looked down at my phone to notice Brandon texted me.

Brandon: Hey would you like to go on a date

Me: Sure when?

Brandon: Tomorrow at 7

Me: Okay

I smiled afterwards. I put my phone in my room hoping Christian wouldn't text me. My life is so jacked up. Everyone expects me to be the good girl my mom raised me to be.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. Please bear with me this is my first romance book I am writing. I will try and write every other day. Also, I made this chapter on just Jasmine's POV because I thought you should get to know her better and Brandon's name changed to Jordan.
