Episode 24

Pattie's POV

We found the room 305 after a few minutes and when we found the door Justin ran inside, "Jasmine!!" I walked inside the room and saw Jasmine sitting on her bed. Justin climbed on the bed and hugged her. Jasmine hugged back and I heard her ask, "Why am I here?" Justin looked at her, "You fainted Jas." Bernie walked inside the room after Jeremy did and ran to Jasmine as soon as she saw her. "Jasmine." she said as she hugged her, Jasmine didn't look so happy, there were mixed expressions on her face, "Why are you here? You were working right?" she asked Bernie, "Yes, but Pattie called and told me that you fainted, I rushed to get here as soon as possible." Bernie explained, I saw how Jasmine was acting she wouldn't talk so much, "Oh.." I heard Jasmine mumble, Bernie almost had tears in her eyes. "Are you alright?" she asked her stroking her hair worried "How are you feeling?" Bernie asked once again, Jasmine didn't even look at Bernie, "I'm fine." Jasmine said almost in a whisper.
Suddenly Bernie's phone started to ring, probably her manager asking where she is. Jasmine sighed, Bernie took her phone out of her pocket and looked at Jasmine, "Look sweetie I gotta answe--" Bernie was soon cut off by Jasmine, "Yes, I know, you gotta answer it." Jasmine said almost in a whisper again. "I'll be right back." Bernie said in almost tears.
Me and Jeremy walked to Jasmine, "Sweetie are you ignoring your mom?" I asked her softly, she looked down, "Jasmine you know it's bad when you do that." Jeremy told her too, "Yes Jas it's bad." I heard Justin spoke up too, he was sitting next to her, "We'll be out for a minute okay?" I told Jasmine, she nodded then me and Jeremy looked at each other before walking out. We needed to talk with Bernie.



Justin's POV

Mom and dad walked out the room, Jasmine was silent the whole time, she didn't even want to look up. "Jasmine why are you sad?" I asked her, it was really silent so I decided to just ask a question, "I am not." Jasmine said, she was still looking down, I knew she was sad because of something. I wanted to cheer her up because I don't like seeing her like this. "I know you are Jasmine..." I told her, she kept silent for a couple of minutes. "Mommy's never with me." she stated, "That's not true Jas..." I trailed off trying to make her believe that aunt Bernie just did it for her, "Aunt Bernie's just working for you." I told her, she shook her head a little, "But she's not with me..." she said sad, I frowned. I felt bad for her, I stayed silent because I didn't know what to respond to that, she then looked up at me, "I don't wanna be alone." Jasmine said softly, I saw how a tear escaped from her eye and rolled down her cheek, I moved closer to her, "You won't be alone Jasmine, never..." I told her while I opened my little arms to hug her, "I promise.." I said almost in a whisper, she hugged back and cried a bit.



Pattie's POV

We talked with Bernie about her work and Jasmine, she couldn't just leave her work, there were things she needed to pay. We walked into Jasmine's room again and we found Jasmine asleep, Justin was sitting in her bed. I heard Bernie sighed while she looked at her daughter, "Why has this to happen to me? My work... My daughter..." she said, "Come here Justin." said Jeremy, Justin climbed off Jasmine's bed and walked to Jeremy. I looked at Bernie "Do you really have to go?" I asked her once again, she looked so depressed, "I have to..." she said looking at me then at Jasmine, she walked towards her bed "I'll see you soon." Bernie said kissing Jasmine's forehead. I noticed Justin looked up at Bernie, "Aunt Bernie, are you gonna leave Jasmine again?" he asked frowning a bit, "I have to Justin." Bernie said looking at Justin with tears in her eyes, "She'll cry.." Justin spoke up once again.
Bernie sighed deeply and looked at me and Jeremy, "Take care of her please." she said with some tears in her eyes, I nodded at her, "We will Bernie." I told her, "We'll try to make her understand." Jeremy said too, Bernie was already tearing up looking at Jasmine. She's having a tough time, she doesn't wanna leave Jasmine but neither her work... She's hurting so much because her daughter is starting to realize she's hardly ever with her, Jasmine needs her too, her dad isn't here so she's hoping Bernie will try to spend more time with her but no, Bernie needs to leave and spend time on work. I know it's a hard thing to do, leave your daughter knowing she needs you, it hurts.


Bernie covered her mouth, she was crying quietly not to wake Jasmine up, "Thank you so much." she said then hugged me tight, she hugged Jeremy too. "You're always welcome Bernie." I told her smiling a bit, she smiled a bit too then wiped some tears. She looked at Justin, "Bye Justin." she said and hugged Justin, "Bye aunt Pattie.." Justin replied back, Bernie pulled away and looked at Jasmine one last time, "Bye." I heard Bernie say then left the room.
