Under His Protection

“Hey” Cory says entering Jasmine’s room to find her sitting on her bed, lost in thoughts 


“Hi” she replies, without even looking at him 


“Is something wrong?” Cory asks, moving towards her 


“No, nothing’s wrong” she answers sharply, her eyes still fixed on nothing in particular 


“Jasmine” Cory calls, sitting next to her 


“Oh, now you can call me Jasmine huh, what happened to ma’am?” her question and attitude surprising Cory 


“Did I do something wrong?” Cory asks, keeping his voice low as he didn’t want to upset her any further 


“No Cory, you didn’t. I’m going to get something to eat” she says, and with that, she walks out of the room, leaving Cory alone, and confused.

“Jasmine, talk to me” Cory says, finding her by the microwave
