Jasmine dragged herself lazily to the bathroom. She brushed and had her bath. She picked a pink tank top and black shorts. She packed her hair in a tight ponytail.
She checked the list of things her aunt had written for her to buy for the kitchen. ' She's rich. Why doesn't she get a maid?'
She boarded a taxi to the grocery store where she got all the things her aunt had written on the list. She went back home and arranged the things which she had bought in their rightful places.
When she finished, she washed her face and applied little powder. She placed a call to her best friend Will.
"Hey handsome." She said.
" Hey beautiful." Will said, his voice cracking.
" Were you sleeping?"
" Nah. I just finished with some girl." Will teased.
" Pervert. Can we meet today?"
" Sure. I'll tell Francie and Todd."
" See you in twenty minutes. The usual restaurant." She said and hung up.
She boarded a taxi to Charles avenue. It was the last place her aunt would think to look. When she got to the restaurant, one of the biggest restaurants in town, she met only Will who was typing something on his phone.
" Hey handsome." She said and pecked his cheek.
"Clumsy." Will muttered.
" I heard you and I'm not clumsy, I'm beautiful. The most beautiful girl you've ever seen." Jasmine smirked.
" I wish." Will teased.
" Sorry we're late." Francie said as she came in with Todd.
" You're always late." Will teased.
" I know. Jasmine how did you escape furious today?" Todd asked as he took his seat.
" I didn't. She wasn't at home and I was bored." Jasmine smiled.
" Girl, you're eighteen and you still sneak out. Heaven knows if it was me I'd had ran out of that house." Francie said.
" That's why it isn't you. Besides she's my only family."
" Is she still tiring you. You know you could come work for me, I'll pay you." Todd teased and Jasmine hit him on his arm playfully.
" Guys I just heard the biggest news." Francie announced.
" I hope it isn't about a new restaurant coz I'm not about to try anything out." Will said looking at her.
" No it isn't. Michael Dixon is in Louisiana." Francie squealed.
" So fucking what?" Todd asked absentmindedly.
" Dude. The Micheal Dixon is in Louisiana, New Orleans to be precise and he's here to stay and you're behaving like an arse." Francie said.
" Girl you don't even the snub." Jasmine teased.
" I know him." Francie said frustrated. The kind of friends she had hates to attach themselves to the lives of celebrities. " I heard that he was here in Charles avenue."
" Who's telling you those news?" Will asked.
" Maria. She also said he's staying in Charles avenue." Francie said and they all laughed.
" You know you shouldn't believe all Maria says." Will said.
" Where precisely?" Jasmine asked.
