Jasmine
"How are you feeling today Jasmine?" I looked up from my bed to see my mama standing there rocking Malaysia. "I'm okay mama." I say sitting up. She nodded and handed my baby to me. I smiled looking at her. She was just looking around with her finger in her mouth. "Have you thought about the announcement you're gonna make Sunday? About what you're gonna say?" She sat on the edge of my bed and gently patted my leg. I nodded my head. I was going to confront Marcus in front of the whole congregation on Sunday and I can't say that I'm not nervous. I don't know what's going to happen and why I'm even doing this but Mama is right. He doesn't love me or care about me. I've been stupid and foolish long enough and the fact that he beat me so bad, I was in the hospital for 3 days? I have to let go. He is not the man for me. I thought I loved him. I think I love him but I have to be around for my daughter. I thought I had lost her when I passed out, I thought I was dead. I now know what Raven has to deal with and I feel sorry for her. "I'm going to tell the church how I was involved in an affair with him and had a baby. Also I'm pressing charges for him beating me and I'm going to have the police waiting there with me." I say rocking my daughter while my mother nodded in agreement. "Excellent." She said getting up and walking out of the room. I continued to play with my daughter as she cooed and made little spit bubbles. "I'm about to go baby. Call me if you need anything." Mama said, I got up to walk her to the door. "See you sunday." I say and closed and locked the door. I'm not opening it up for anybody else. Just me and Malaysia and movies until we go to sleep.
