Jasmine commented on the post, loom 2 weeks, 1 day ago
The question looms in my head: did i do something wrong? I read through our thread of texts, which were at first so lively and so eloquent and suddenly became cold. Curt. Emotioneless. I wonder if I said something to scare hime away, or if simply lost interest. It pisses me off, not the fact that he isn’t fawning over me but that I don’t even understand what happened.

Jasmine commented on the post, soap 2 weeks, 2 days ago
It slides out from my hands and lands on the blue floor of the tub. I squint and try to pick up the little green bar again but it continues to evade me. I shrug. Whatever. It can just lay there. I’ll pick it up later. If ever. Whatever. Not my house. Not my problem. Not even my own bar of soap. I lather up and let the hot water run down my shoulders. Where am I, and what have I done?

Jasmine commented on the post, credibility 3 weeks ago
“This was written on a napkin with a crayon,” she says, waving it in my face. “It has no credibility whatsoever!”
“It’s i nwriting,” I remind her. “that’s technically a contract.”
“This is bull. I don’t even remember doing this. I was drunk.”
:We might be able to plead something,” I tease.
“Insanity?”
“You don’t need any vodka for that.”
She punches me lightly in the arm. -

The pins knock over. Not all of them. Two remain, in the most inconvenient spot possible. He knows no possible roll will knock them both over. not at his level of skill, anyway. He turns to look at her and shrugs. She smiles and shakes her head. she gets it too. So he can’t impress her at knocking down some pins with a ball, but somehow, for some reason, she’s still there, and she seems to be perfectly okay with the moment.

Jasmine G commented on the post, leverage 1 month, 1 week ago
She holds the gun up against my head. “You see this right here?” she says, voice shaking. “This is the only leverage you’re going to get.” The cold of the metal presses against my temple and I realize that I’m shaking too. “You’re going to back away,” she commands. “You’re going to do what I say or he goes down before you can even make a sound. Is that understood?”

Her hands, slightly shaky from the latte she’d sipped as the cake baked, spread the light blue icing over the top of the chocolate cake. It was his favorite color, and while she knew he would have been happy with […]

I scatter the daisy seeds into the ground.

It was the pits, being this disconcerted and uninspired. He stared out the window, watching every raindrop fall down the pane, watching one drop race the other. Nothing gave him any spark of ideas. No flower to […]

She suddenly had an epiphany: it was HIM. He was the one she was supposed to be with all this time. He knew her best out of anyone, knew that she loved lilies and hated carnations. Why had she ignored him this entire time? How could she have overlooked her own best friend all this [...]

Jasmine G wrote about the word passionate 1 year, 6 months ago
If he was passionate about anything, it was his schoolwork. More than he could perhaps ever love a woman, he loved the sound of pencil scratching upon paper, the rhythm of keyboard keys tapping away. Learning, knowledge, those were his loves, and he sacrificed sleep and social time to be with his books and his [...]
