(Jasmine's POV)

I wake up in my bed with Mitch lying next to me...

I walk downstairs with me thrown over his shoulder...

I kiss him on the lips feeling fireworks every time...

I feel his arms wrap around me...

I pick my head up to see everything destroyed around me. Picture frames are shattered, tables turned, chairs flipped, and blood... My blood. My hands are bleeding from the broken glass. Why would this happen to me? Why do I have to be so miserable? I sobbed into the floor. I'm never going to be happy without Mitch...

I get up and rinse the blood off of my hands. The hot water stings the cuts but I don't mind it. I bandage them up and take Isabella to Jerome.

"Jerome..." I knock on his door.

He opens the door groggily. "Yeah?"

"I... I need to tell you something." I swallowed.

"Oh come right on in..." Jerome was only wearing plaid long pants and no shirt.

I sat down on the couch. "Mitch is dead."

"What...?!" Jerome gasped. "You're lying... You have to be. My best friend can't be gone! I knew he was shot but I didn't know he would be dead..."

"Yeah... Which... Which is why I need you to take Isabella. She's too much for me right now. You know how to take care of children... I just can't be around her anymore. She looks just like her father... It's so painful for me." I got up and left.

I walked back to my house. I took a match, lit it, and threw it into the carpet. I sat inside my house watching it burn.

This is how it's going to end...
