Jasmine
When I woke up I was in the basement. So I got up but my legs couldn't seem to function right. Then all of the events that happened last night came flooding back into my mind. I broke down crying, but i stopped when u felt a sharp pain in my stomach. I slowly raised my shirt and seen where Demarcus had whipped me on my stomach. I knew i had to get out of here and soon. I couldn't take anymore. So I was try to sneak out within the next week. but where will I go? I might just take some of his money out of his pocket when he sleeping or out of his safe.
Today Demarcus had an important meeting and left early. This is the perfect time to try to escape. I hurried to the basement and packed the little clothes I had. I then went to the safe ( thats in hs room) and got me enough money to get me a hotel for a week. I rush downstairw into the kitchen to pack me some food and some Advil.
With my bag in my hand and the money. I took one last to to make sure that ,I had everything then rushed out if the front door. As I was running I turned around and took one last look at the house that I been trapped in. I looked for a moment then continued running until I felt u was far enough. I was taking in my surroundings and seen there was a lil cafè. A lip break wouldn't hurt I need to rest anyways. And maybe somebody could tell me where a hotel is. As I walked in the cafè the smell of cinnamon was strong. I took and big wiff and went to sit down. As I was waiting I was pooping round making sure Demarcus was no where around. Just as I wasn't to close my eyes the waiter came.
"May I take your order?"
"Yes may I have a cup of coffee"
"Yes ma'am would that be all?"
"Yes thank you. "
After the waiter left I checked my bags for the money. The waiter came back with my coffee and check. I thanked her, paid, then left but no before I asked her where the hotels are she told me on 35the street. As u was walking out of the cafè I realized that u could really have a chance in escaping maybe I could change my name and start over or move to a foreign country and start over there. I was knocked out of my thoughts when somebody blowed there horn at me. I didn't deserve I was standing I. The middle of the street. I hurried and entered the hotel.
It was a nice gold and red color scheme, it smelled like Fall,, and made me feel like I was at home. I walked up to the front desk and asked how much there rooms were for a week and paid. I read my key card and I was on the 15 floor. When I got to the room I feel out on the bed. I was exhausted but u was happy I could finally live my own life..
Next day
I woke refreshed. I took a hot shower and let the water relaxed my muscles I got out and did my hygenie then went sat on the bed.
What am I going to do next? This money wontkast forever I need a job. But I don't really have skill besides cooking and cleaning and I could make drinks but where could I use those skills? Any way I got and got dressed u was going to look for a job. I went to get a phone because I need one. When I was walking I noticed Demarcus car in the parking lot. So I hurried and turn and ran. Was he out looking for me? I didn't know and didn't want to find out. A phone wasn't even that important Right now.
Few hours later
Ughhhhhhh. Nobody is hiring. Been walking around all day. My feet hurt I need a brake and a drink. Just as I said that a bar came into view. I walked in and sat down and asked the bartender could I have vodka on ice. (Idk bout drinks💀). But he seemed busy running to every customer. Then when he mad it to me he seemed exhausted. I asked him do he need help.
"you need help,u seemed over whelmed"
"I am Selena just quit and I have to work this shift alone. "
"I know how to make drink I could help..... "
He looked at me like I said would give bum a million dollars then introduced himself.
"My name is Trey."
"Mines Jasmine nice to meet you Trey. "
"Nice to meet you too, you do know how to make drinks right. "
I jumped over the counter and make him one of my special drinks.
"Damn,, when u gonna teach me how to make this. "
I laughed and got a apron and tied it around my waist.
It's wasn't 2 in the morning. I back back to the hotel and took a shower I counted the money I made from the bar and it was $1,025,, dollars! I was happy. Trey bought me home. He said he didn't want me to walk home this late. He said I would have to come in and talk to the boss to see if I got the job, but I already know I do. Things are starting to look up. I got a job,, I'm making good money. I made a new friend. And with that I went to sleep with a smile in my face
I was debating on updating cause I thought this book was shitty. But my friend told I did good and would keep updating. So here you go.
Do y'all want the next chapter to be in Demarcus pov or keep it in Jasmine's?
