you are a mistake

Jasmine's Pov The sun shone so barely; it’s midsummer, and I was still on my bed, turning and tossing myself. "Jasmine is a mistake," my father retorted angrily. His face was so hardened that he felt like killing me. I hated my father. He is heinous. He takes pleasure in punching my mother. "Jasmine is not my child." He keeps reminding her. In fact, I agreed with him. I can’t be his daughter with such a ruthless and dishonest man. Sometimes I can’t still believe that a lovely, beautiful woman like my mother ended up with him. I can remember her telling me that her parents betrothed her to him. My father’s word keeps coming up in my memory; it's torn my heart into pieces in my mind—a father who has so much hatred for his daughter. It's always been my dream to attend Kisco High School, but when I told my father about it, he blurted out, "You are useless, and I won't squander all of my money on you." I dreaded him so much that I sat staring up at the ceiling, wondering what I

Chapter 2

It’s late at night, everyone has gone to bed, but dad isn’t back yet. My mom was still awake, waiting for him to come so she could prepare him dinner. I fling on my bed. I was trying to meditate. I don’t know when I doze off. Now I’m waken by dad’s uproarious noise I could hear someone hitting something. "What’s happening? I hope this man is not hitting Mom." I muster to myself as the sound continues to disrupt me. I stood up to know what it was I was hearing as I got to my door. I quietly opened it because I was afraid to see that my dad was hitting my mom. I couldn’t bear to see him beating my mom. "Stupid woman, what do you know how to do, you and that your daughter is good for nothing," he yelled at her and hit her wooden chair on her head. She fell down unconsciously. I opened the door with so many tears in my eyes. I cast him a furious gaze. He is totally drunk. I approached my unconscious mother, watching her as she lay helplessly on the floor, blood streaming from her

Chapter 3

Jasmine's Pov I lay in my bed, attempting to meditate. I found myself daydreaming about my present, specifically how I had received scholarships to Kisco High School. After a few deep breaths, I reopened my eyes and returned my awareness to my breath. As I settled into the moment, I felt compelled to jot down my thoughts. I opened my drawer and took out all my painting supplies. I began expressing my feelings on a piece of paper, using black paint to capture the fear coiling in my mother’s and my own eyes. It’s my fear of insanity, I guess, as I draft it. "Jasmine, my dear," my mother called, breaking my concentration. I unlatched my room door and was pleasantly surprised to see her face glowing with a resplendent smile for the first time in a long while. "I want you to prepare. You are going for the Kisco scholarship exams. I’ve worked hard to get this money so you can enter that school." She handed me $200. That’s a lot of money. I was both shocked and excited at the same tim

Chapter 4

Jasmine’s Pov “Jasmine,” my father called in a calm voice. I was surprised by his tone; it was different from usual. He must be having a good day. I responded, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that I wanted to turn the tables, just like he had lavishly spent the money my mother gave me. "I have done everything for you. The least you can do for me is pay me by getting married to whomever I choose for you as a suitor." I glared at him. I’m just twenty, and he wants to marry me off to someone just like him. "I have a very rich friend who is willing to take care of you." It’s quite certain I will be getting money from him every day for my upkeep. "Don’t disappoint me, do you hear me?" I couldn’t focus on what he was saying with his annoying voice and adenoidal tone. He grasped my left ear, making it hurt. "Ouch." I winced in pain. His grip was really hurting. He must have been a wrestler when he was my age. Now I remember him saying that his friend, who is just his age, would come

Chapter 5

It was like a nightmarish for me haven’t know that today my father’s friend is coming to pay my bride price. I felt as though I was being swallowed up in the darkness. I breathe a heavy sigh. "Make sure you look so presentable." "I don’t want to see you putting on those shabby clothes." My father's voice rang out, dragging me out of the darkness that was threatening to swallow me. When last did he buy clothes for me? I began to make whirring sounds. I can’t believe my dream is shattering into pieces because of my father's selfish desire. "Where is my mother?" I held my breath as I went to the kitchen to look for her. She was in the kitchen, preparing food for our guest. It hooked me in the heart to see her cooking. I guess she is on my father’s side. I stared at her as tears could not stop dripping from my eyes. She has a lot to cook. She waved at me immediately after she saw me. "Are you going to cook all that?" I inquired with a frail voice. She looked at my pale face and k

Chapter 6

"You didn’t tell me you have a daughter as beautiful as this," he said to my father while caressing my face. His touch made my anger grow even more. I wasn’t smiling; my face was twisted with frustration, knowing full well that nobody in my house understood how I felt, even though my mother supported this marriage. My father is a man who would sell his daughter’s future for the small change he needed at that moment to buy alcohol, which is the only thing he spends money on. They all sat down, and anger gripped me as I looked at the pale face of the old man my father had brought to marry me; he was smiling like a coward. My mother went straight to the kitchen. She held my hand as I joined her there. I wasn’t happy with her at all. She just killed my emotions today. As we entered the kitchen, she brought out coffee. "Are we serving the guests with that as well?" I asked myself. "What will I actually do with this?" I asked her, my voice thick with anger. "I have the whole thing plann

Chapter 7

Everything is moving smoothly, and I am so excited within."I think I have had enough of this nonsense." You just ruined my day and splashed scorching coffee on me. I will deal with you and my cloth, which is really costly. You just messed it up; your father can’t afford it. I will never forgive you for that." He retorted angrily as he took a measured step to leave the house. As I watched him take a step to leave, my face was beaming with smiles.Is this the kind of man my father wants me to marry—someone who is worse than him? My father is sure to plan a great trick with me."Wait, in-law, whatever it is, I will resolve it." I felt like kicking my father. Why would he stop him from leaving gently?"What can you do?" "Do you know how much I spent on these clothes that your daughter ruined?" "You don’t know because you have never touched that kind of money before." I couldn’t stop smiling, seeing how mad he was with my father. Is this the kind of person my father calls a friend? I

Chapter 8

I sat by the side of my mom, who was lying on a hospital bed with a supporting machine. It’s been an hour now, and she is still unconscious. I lay by her side, filled with tears in my eyes. I don’t know where to get money for her hospital bill. I still don’t know if she still has saves . My stupid father can’t help after putting her into such misery. He left the house instantly. My eyes reddened. I don’t want to see my father's face again. If my mother regains herself, I don’t think we are going back to that house. Even though we don’t have anywhere to go, I guess living on the street, hustling to survive, is better than staying in the house of a heinous father that causes us nothing but pain. "Mom, please don’t leave me." I held her hand, looking at her eyes. I still have no hope of her recovery; there’s no sign of her waking up. I won’t forgive my father for this. I can’t imagine my life without my mother; she is all I have. I held her hand and squeezed it. I hope she wakes up.

Clara cleaned the wound on my mouth ,she applied it antibiotics and gave me tetanus injections she smiled softly at me she is so beautiful her eyes were blinking light sensation to me."Don’t worry, I will take care of your mom." She sounds like an angel indeed, as if she knows what I’m thinking about."Jas! Jas!" My mother’s voice was rather a whisper; it’s exciting to see her awake. She looks so frail, and her eyes are so dull.I went closer to her: Mom, thank God you are awake." "I had spent days and nights hoping for the day you would wake up." I whooped.It feels so good to have my mother back."Jas!" "Where am I?" She asked, trying to turn around.She was looking so pale"We are in the hospital." I said I was worried because she had been through enough, and I wished I could do anything to help her out of this trouble."Hospital?" She was so shocked to hear that I knew in her mind she wonders where we will get money for her hospital’s bill. I

Chapter 10

My mouth was struck on seeing the hospital bill; it was more than expected.The money my mother save didn't have enough to stump up with the bill I became so worried as I handed the bill over to my mom. On seeing it, she screamed, "Where am I going to get the money from?" Her voice was so frail."Mum, let me get the savings first." I knew it wasn’t going to be enough, but I needed to figure out how to get the remaining money.How can I forget so quickly that I can ask Clara if there’s any job vacancy available, even if it's a cleaner? I don’t mind doing it to get money for the hospital bill, but first I need to go home. Remembering my father, my face crept with anger, and I prayed I wouldn’t see him."This is not going to be enough," she said.But I nodded and let her know that I would find a way out. I got on my heels and went to our house. The thought of meeting my father in the house was making my spirit soar. Everything about my father irritates me. When I got to our hou
