Chapter 9: Chapter 9

Alexis's POV;

After Jasmin dropped me off i went straight up to my room and arranged it a little not that it wasn't arranged before its just that my room was always kinda messy whenever i prepare for school.

I then go to my mom's room to look for her, but she wasn't there. So i go downstairs checked the kitchen but she wasn't there so i guessed she was at the store since even Sophie wasn't there too.

So i watch some TV to pass time and then there was a knock on the door and I go to check it out and find a smiling Sophie who comes in

"Where's mom?" I ask.

"She's doing a night shift at the cafe so I'm in charge." Sophie said with a smile plastered on his face.

"Okay.. I wanted to tell you-"

"So Mark's coming over tonight so stay in your room till tomorrow morning." Sophie interrupted me.

"I will cause I was saying I want to tell you that Jazz is coming over." I finally completed my sentence.

"Great, so what's for dinner?" Sophie asked.

"We are having spaghetti and meatballs." I answered.

"Yum, I love your meatballs." She said back.

"That's great just leave some for Jazz." I told her.

She nodded and started eating, in between eating, the doorbell rang and I ran to open the door.

"Come on in girl!" I told her smiling and she entered and said.

"Something smells divine!" Jasmin closed her eyes with a smile on her face.

"Is your mom home?" Jasmin asked and I shook my head.

"It's her meatballs." Sophie yelled from the dining table.

Jazz greeted Sophie and walked into the kitchen. She grabbed a plate to serve her portion but paused.

"Have you had dinner?" Jasmin turned to look at me and I shook my head.

" Want to eat together?" She asked and I nodded with a smile.

The thing about Jasmin is that she treats my home like it's hers and my family like it's also hers. My mom on the other hand was extremely excited that I had a female friend that she started treating Jasmin as another daughter.

After having our dinner, Jasmin and I went up to my room to leave the living room for Sophie but Jasmin kept staring at her phone.

"Hey are you okay?" I asked in a worried tone.

"Yeah it's just June telling me that my dad is home drunk again." She said slightly sighing.

June is Jasmin's little sister they are a family of 'Js' because her mother's name is Julia while her dad's Justin so they decided to have children with matching names.

"I'm so sorry." I say softly while holding her shoulders.

"It's okay, we are kinda used to it." She muttered in a low tone.

"So what should we do now?" I ask Jazz who was already yawning.

"Sleep!" She answered quickly but I didn't really feel sleepy so I just left Jazz who had already gone to sleep and wanted to drink cold water. I tiptoed to the stairs but I only saw Sophie making out with her boyfriend on the couch.

After a long while of playing Sudoku, I got tired and played chess on my laptop until I yawned and sleep began to creep into my eyes. I turned off the laptop and went to bed but before I could sleep it took awhile because of Jazz's snoring, hard to believe that such a pretty girl snores but that's the irony of life.
