Since Lexi was coming over, I wouldn't feel so bored throughout the day. Lexi and I can talk about anything. We can start a random conversation about a wall and we'd still make it interesting.

I hear the door bell ring. I get off the couch and open the door.

"Hey Jas," She greets me by giving me a quick hug.

Hey, Lex," I smile at her. "Come in,"

"So, I brought the homework that we needed to work on," She smirks and drops it on the kitchen table.

I don't feel like doing this homework, it's only Saturday. We were given Sunday for a reason. "About that," I say while sliding the homework away from me."Why don't we just work on that tomorrow?" I suggest

Lexi rolls her eyes and shakes her head. I know she wants to get this done, but I refuse to do so. "Girl, I picked you as a partner for a reason! You know how to get things done quickly,"

"And I can get it done quickly tomorrow," I tell her while opening my refrigerator for something to drink.

She sighs. "Fine, we'll do it tomorrow," She grabs the drink out of my hands and skips into the living room.

"Lexi! Get your own drink!" I rush after her

She shouts from the living room. "If we don't get to do the homework, I get your drink. It's that simple Jas,"


Lexi turns the tv on to Panem's Next Top Model. She is in love with that show. She always makes me watch it with her every chance she gets. I rather not watch a show about wanna-be models but Lexi insists that we can somehow learn from them.

My phone buzzes. I reach in my pocket to discover that this guy from school, Alex, is calling me. I know Alex has this crush on me, but I rather us stay as friends seeing that I'm not very attracted to him.

I answer the phone. "What's up Alex?"

"Hey Jasmine! Do you wanna hang out today?" He asks

"I'm already hanging out with somebody. Maybe we can hang out later," I suggest

"Jasmine, get off the phone!" Lexi whines, reaching to snatch the phone of of my hands. I move away from her, trying not be rude towards Alex.

"Hey, I'll text you later," I say before hanging up the phone.

After watching the models on the show, argue about who looked better, I've finally reached my limit.

"Lexi, I'm going to paint," I tell her while getting up.

She nods and continues to focus on the tv show. I sigh and walk upstairs to look for my art supplies. I keep all of my tools in my Dad's art studio. Since we are the only artists in the family, we are open to share our tool with each other. My Dad and I mostly bond over our love of art. When we have free time, we usually do duo art projects. It keeps us very close, and I'm grateful for that. You can say that I'm a Daddy's Girl.

I drag my easel downstairs and set it up on the patio. I work best outside, it gives me the most inspiration. While my Dad enjoys the sunset, I rather watch the sunrise. It's nice seeing that I've survived another day.

Just as I dip my paint brush into the water, I notice someone driving into our car port. I recognize the car immediately, so I drop my paint brush and start running towards the car. I knock on the car window.

"Aunt Jo!"
