Chapter 8

*Jasmine*

I haven't sleep yet. I've been sitting in my room with my kids thinking about earlier. For the first time in forever, I finally got to read a bed time story for my brother and my children again.

My brother and my babies were so excited they screamed, when they found out I would be having dinner and bed time with them, that one of our left neighbor call, he didn't call to complain us about anything but he called to congrats that were finally together with again. He sound genuinely happy about it. My mom cried and talked to him for an hours which made my dad very jealous even though our neighbor is gay. He kept peeking to the living room for every 10 minutes and snorted loudly every now and then, saying that 'I can't believe why am I the one who's making dinner while she's the housewife! Hang up and do your work woman!' Or 'woman now a day.'

My dad's reaction was so happy it's like he finally got his wishes came true also he didn't even ask about my night shift and mom smiled knowingly at me but she cried out the moment Harry called her, it was quiet entertaining watching their reactions.

It was one of these times where our family were so happy we didn't have a delicious and a table full of different meals but eating together with my mom, dad, my brother and these 2 demons was enough. I almost forgot how it felt to have dinner with my family.

Logan was a handful during dinner. He wouldn't stop picking on Mogan. I tried telling him to quit it but he didn't listen until her eyes started to fill with tears on the urge of crying, he got up and comfort her saying that he didn't mean to maker her cry he was just joking he loves her and didn't mean anything he say. I didn't cry I didn't even shed a tear okay maybe I did but no one gotta know.

My brother was quiet the whole time. Mom and Dad didn't say anything it's like they're use to it. Just because he was quiet didn't mean that he ate very little. He finished 3 times and his stomach still got places for 3 more bananas. Like I said mom and dad were use to it so it wasn't a surprise but for me it was.

From dinner last night, I learned that dad still loves mom more than anything he gave mom the best food that's on the table and serve my mom like a queen. My mom was as talkative as before she wouldn't stop talking unless dad shoved something into her mouth. My brother, Jason, eat everything but chocolate he said chocolate is the most disgusting candy that ever created into this world. My Logan was a vegetarian he barely eat anything on the table he only ate fish and vegetable that's on the table. And my Morgan, was a shy tiny little girl and quiet sassy I didn't notice at first but then whenever Logan said anything she would had a good remark.

"So the crown came to Dummling, who lived long, and ruled his people temperately and justly. The end" I looked at them, seeing that they're all fall asleep I closed the book slowly and put it under the bed so no one would step on them when they wake up to pee.

I was preparing to sleep when I heard Jason whispered. "Sis"

"Yes, love?" I asked in a small voice.

There was a long pause until he decided to talk again. "Why was he here?"

I was caught off the guard. I didn't know how to respond to him. I didn't want to lie to him. I had lie to him a lot. I have no chose but to not answer and stared into the dark. I didn't want to remember what happened earlier I just wanted to wash it all away. I knew he was the reason why I got to spend time with my family but he's also the reason why I lost my job. I couldn't go back to my old one because if I do, he'd find out one way or another and it'd not be good. It paid very well which was why I worked there from the start.

"Tick tok tick tok tick tok" my phone rang and I snapped out of my mind.

"Hello?"

"I'm dying Jasmine. My beautiful little lady. I am about to leave this world and most importantly you. Which I couldn't bring myself to say that I'm going to die. I love you. I love you so so much it hurts. I couldn't help but admire your beauty and the big heart that you have. I couldn't help but notice that you don't wear any make up but yet. You look stunning more than any girl I've ever seen. Not even the most beautiful model can compare to you. You are my one and only-"
