Jasmine was in a park near her home in Wellington. She was bored of the constant arguing going on and so she decided to leave the house for a bit and escape. It seemed that when they argued, her elder brother would always blame her for something and not being strong enough to stand up to him, she would just have to accept her fate. Sighing, she scuffed her feet along the grass and found a nearby bench where she could sit down. As she did so, she looked around, admiring the nature and the scene that greeted her. Swinging her legs because they didn't quite touch the ground, she took a deep breath and closed her eyes, letting the smell of the freshly cut lawn tease her senses. A little time passed and she watched the public wander by, enjoying the lovely day and letting their kids play near the pond. Watching with a quiet amusement, she found herself getting the feeling that she was being watched. Slowly looking around, her dark eyes located a blonde girl who looked about her age, lying on the grass watching her. Turning back to face the park edge, she sighed. If she had even the tiniest bit more courage, she would go up and speak to the girl, but the thought scared her slightly and she knew better than to make conversation with strangers, whatever their age. No, she decided she would wait for the other girl to come over and talk to her if she was so interested. After all, Jasmine wasn't the one looking at the girl first. Happy about her decision, she carried on people-watching, her favourite hobby of things to do when there was no hope with her family.
