Chapter 3

Huey had woken up from his recurring dream. The dream always consisted of Jazmine and Huey siting on the hill. Huey would be reading while Jazmine would be either picking flowers or looking over his shoulders and reading along side him. But then it would change, the once beautiful blue and sunny sky turned dark. It was just like the day she left. Jazmine stood in front of him, she looked a mess. Her hair was falling apart, her eyes were red, and she looked thinner. He would examine her body and every time he did he saw new bruises and cuts. Jazmine would then walk up to him and open her mouth to say something, but before she could speak Huey would open his eyes.

He grabbed his face. He always had this dream. What the hell did it mean? Huey got up and headed to the bathroom. It was five in the morning, a bit early to get ready for school. But he figured that he might as well, he could never go back to sleep after that dream.


Jazmine sat in her closet crying. He had forced himself on her again. This time her Aunt held her down so he could do more disgusting thing to her teenage body. Jazmine just wanted to accept this reality but in the end she couldn't. This was not right and she just wanted to go home. Back to Huey. Her body was still sore from when he punished her. She could barely move but she had to force her way up otherwise he would do it again. Jazmine grabbed the permanent marker in her closet and wrote the words 'be strong' on the wall. It was becoming worse for Jazmine. After Jeremy had left her aunt Martha beat her.

"You dirty whore! It's all your fault! This is how you thank us for taking you in. By taking my men? You are a disgrace!" Martha said as she hit Jazmine square in the face.

Jazmine touched her cheek as she kept thinking about it.

"You are a fucking disgrace! How does it feel fucking my man? I bet you like it when he is rough with you."

Martha kicked Jazmine's stomach, the girl wailed in pain.

"Tell me Slut!" She yelled as she grabbed a cane and beat Jazmine with it.

All Jazmine could do was cry and beg her to stop.

"Go back to your closet and put on some damn clothes while you're at it." Martha said as she left.

Jazmine was still naked, she was counting the bruises on her body. Twenty-four bruises on her belly, five bruises on her chest, two on her neck and shoulders. She couldn't see the ones on her back but she knew the existed. She lay in a fetal position as she stared at the words.

No escape.

Be strong.


Marleen was determined to try again and again until Huey was hers. She was walking with him as they headed to their math class. She leaned in closer, their hands were nearly touching. Huey moved away while Marleen moved closer.

'Just like her.' He thought. Marleen smiled, her wavy brown hair flowed as she walked. Huey had to admit that he had some sort of attraction for the girl. I mean who the hell didn't like her? She was friendly, book smart, pretty, and she had a nice body. What else can a man want? Huey did think about dating her and he has considered it but at the same time he felt like it was too soon. His heart still belonged to one girl. It was as if Marleen read his mind since she gave up on getting close to him. They arrived and sat in their assigned seats, which were next to each others. They pulled out their home work and focused on the lesson. Marleen was disappointed.

'Another missed chance.' she thought.


"Aw Mar don't worry. Huey has always been that way, he'll come around." Cindy said.

"I know I know, but still..."

"Mar-mar,"

Marleen smiled at the silly nick name Caesar had given her.

"Cindy and I know Huey. You just need to give him time. He will come to you when he's ready."

"So are you saying give up on him."

'Yes.' Cindy thought.

"No, Just give him time. Huey has been through a lot with Jazmine leaving."

Cindy flinched at the mention of her best friends name. It was taboo to talk about Jazmine and Caesar knew this. She glared at him but he kept speaking.

"We never really told you about Jazzy but she was a great friend of ours and she was also Huey's best friend."

"What happened to her?" Marleen asked.

She was happy to learn more about Jazmine since she knew nothing.

"She had to move since her parents died in a car accident. We don't know where she's located, all we know is that she moved to another state with her uncle and aunt." Caesar said.

Marleen nodded.

"You need to give him time to move on. He will." Caesar finished.

Marleen nodded.

She was going to follow his advice and give Huey time. She could wait.


Jazmine sat in her closet, fully dressed, listening to her aunt and uncle arguing in the other room.

"The fuck wrong with you? You know better. Why did you hit her face? She has a big bruise on it." Jeremy shouted.

"So you can punish her but I cant! I need to relive my stress too! You the one who wants to leave me, I'm stressed out!" Martha yelled.

"I never said you can't, just not the face or other visible parts of her body! Now how the hell do I gotta explain the bruises to curious mother fuckers?"

Martha began to cry, Jeremy walked out the room. He didn't have the time to listen to his wife's laments. He walked into Jazmine's room and opened the closet. Jazmine was shocked. She thought he was done for today, he had used her four times today. She was tired and sore. She cant handle another round.

"I'm not here to fuck you baby, not at the moment." He said as he roughly grabbed her and dragged her out the small closet.

Jazmine relaxed a bit but she was still scared, what the hell did he want then? Was he going to kill her? Jazmine began to tremor at the thought. Jeremy pulled her downstairs and into the kitchen, she hasn't been in there since the day she got to the house.

"Sit." He demanded.

Jazmine did as told, she was scared that he'd punish her again if she disobeyed. Surprising to her he had pulled out a bag of frozen peas.

"Here, place it on your cheek." He said as he handed her the bag.

She did as told, her cheek felt so much better.

"And eat something." He said before walking away.

As much as she hated it, she had to admit that he was right. She really needed to eat something. She looked in the pantry and found some saltine crackers. She grabbed a pack and a bottle of water from the fridge. Her aunt walked downstairs. Jazmine tried to ignore her but her aunt wanted to aggravate and torture her no matter what. She grabbed the bag of saltines and the water from Jazmine.

"I want you to beg for it, like a dog." She said.

Jazmine was hungry and her throat was dry, she just wanted to eat in peace. She wanted peace.

Her aunt began eating the crackers in front of her, taunting the mulatto teen. Jazmine had no choice, it was the only way that she would eat. She got on the floor and crawled up to her aunt.

"Bark."

Jazmine did as told.

Her aunt laughed, she was enjoying this so far. She placed one of the crackers on Jazmine's nose and told her to catch it with her mouth. Jazmine did as told as Martha laughed again. She emptied the bag of crackers and placed them on the floor. She then stepped on them, breaking some.

"You may eat." She said as she emptied the bottle of water on Jazmine's head and walked away.

Jazmine cried as she ate the crumbled crackers.


Marleen ate another slice of peperoni pizza while Huey watched her.

"That's your fifth one, how are you still hungry?"

The girl laughed.

"I don't know, honestly."

Huey sighed. They were sitting at Charliy's, Marleen enjoyed coming here. Huey had not taken her to the hill yet, that was the only spot where he could still feel Jazmine and he did not want to taint it. So he decided to make this place Marleen's and his spot.

Marleen smiled, she was happy that Caesar had told her some things about the mystery girl who now had a name. The mocha skinned girl still knew nothing but she knew more than before and because of this she felt a little bit more connected to Huey.

"Let's go play in the arcade room." Marleen said as she gobbled down the last slice of pizza.

Huey got up and followed her. He wasn't a big fan of arcade games, unlike his younger brother, but he tagged along to make her happy.


Huey woke up. He was having the same dream as always. She wanted to tell him something, why the hell did he have to wake up? Huey felt like his body was doing it on purposes. Maybe deep down he was running away. He looked over at the clock beside his bead.

3:30.

He never woke up this early. It was useless going back to bed, he would just roll around to no avail. So he got up and decided to go for a walk. No one was going to bother him at this time. He walked and walked until he reached his beloved hill top. The place where Jazmine is. Sometimes he makes believe that she is siting next to him. Huey sat on the grass underneath the oak tree and closed his eyes. He began thinking about his dream, what did she want him to know? Huey had a feeling that his dream was more than that. Maybe a permeation or a message. He didn't know exactly.

"What do you want to tell me Jazmine?" He asked.

"What is it? Why do you look so hurt? Why are you bruised up?" He kept asking, remembering the details of his dream.

"What is it Jazmine?"

Huey sighed, opening his eyes and shaking his head. Maybe he's over thinking it, yeah that's it. Jazmine was gone. He needed to stop living in the past. She was gone and he couldn't do a single thing about it. She will forever be his friend and he will love her till the end of time. But there was nothing he could do. He didn't even know where she resided. Huey got up and headed back home. As he walked down the hill he turned around and saw her, Jazmine. The tears were flowing from her eyes, just like the day she left. He frowned at his last memory of her. She looked so pitiful, just like he used too before he met her. Huey looked away. Jazmine will forever haunt him on this hill so he had decided to never come back. He walked away leaving all his memories behind.

"Goodbye, Jazmine." He said as his own tears flowed.
