Christmas was coming up and, for Jasmine, that meant going back home with her grandpa. Being back in Texas at one of her father’s show off parties disguised as a Christmas celebration. Having to be stuck at her father’s side and smile, pretending that their family was perfect and, after everyone left, the masks would come off. More importantly, it would mean being away from John and leaving him alone for the holidays. Which was all the more reason they were in the penthouse suite of the five-star hotel her father advertised for. All it took was one mention of Darren’s name and they automatically got this room for free. Jasmine had even brought her presents for John and put them near a small planted pine tree she put in the room (it was the best she could do since getting an actual tree was close to impossible).
Now Jasmine was in her pajamas making coffee for the two of them. She poured John his coffee and placed it right in front of him with a smile.
“Morning, baby,” she said with a smile. “I made your coffee just the way you like it.”
