They didn't know it was an adult party when she planned most of it, talk about betrayal.
But Jasmine doesn't care anymore, she should be used to it now. At least they've sent food and cake her way.
She's busy planning another party, a wedding party for her dolls, at least her dolls would never tell her not to attend the wedding she planned, unlike her annoying parents.
She could play with her little sister, Josephine but she's fast asleep. When her sister doesn't have to be angry about anything then of course her sister would be sleeping by one in the morning. It annoyed Jasmine a little bit. Jasmine knows not to count on her sister when it comes to protesting about something or not being a snitch, she's a lost cause and a big snitch.
Jasmine sighs looking at her dolls longingly. She's thinking about the wedding of her own and how big it's going to be, and how magical. She's going to be the one planning it and she's going to do it right. Her wedding will be like the ones she sees in Disney movies and the romance movies her mom watches. It will be perfect and everyone would leave that wedding to go look for their significant other because of Jasmine's wedding and Jasmine will live happily ever after with the man of her dreams.
"Oh, Barbie it'll be epic and you'll all be invited," she says to her dolls as if they're breathing life. That's one of the beauties of being a child, have human friends and toy friends, you have lots of friends. Jasmine is so deep in thought about how her wedding is going to be that she's forgotten how her parents refused to let her be at the party that she planned. She doesn't care anymore, in fact, she's getting sleepy.
She gets up from the floor and stands next to the pink dollhouse that's taller than she is and places Barbie and Ken on the same bed. She smiles at them, even though this is their hundredth marriage she still loves the fact that they love each other and they always find a way to each other.
She lets out a loud yawn and she walks over to her large bed. Before she can jump on the soft mattress covered in a pink bed sheet and a pink duvet something catches her eye, something pink other than the vast amount of pink items in her room.
It's fluttering around. Jasmine gasps.
"A butterfly!" She says in excitement watching this butterfly meticulously, there's a strangeness to it. It's not like the butterflies she's seen before. This one has pink wings and it leaves a trail of magical powder as it flies in the air.
"Hello Mrs. Butterfly," she says with a smile moving in its direction. "Are you here for the party?" she waits for the pretty butterfly to answer. The ten-year-old is no longer sleepy, how does she sleep now that she has a companion in the room? "Or are you here for Barbie and Ken's wedding? You're a bit late though, but there's still cake." she gestures to the trolley filled with half-eaten chocolate cake and snacks from her father's birthday.
The butterfly still flutters, and what happens next makes Jasmine gasp. The butterfly has just flown into the mirror so casually. A shocked Jasmine stands there with her jaw on the floor looking at her reflection.
That didn't just happen, did it? She asks herself. She walks slowly toward her mirror and all she can see is herself in her pink nightgown. Is there something behind that mirror? Could it be Wonderland? She thinks, she has read Alice Through the Looking Glass so many times and she's wished to go to Wonderland, maybe her wish has finally come true. She can finally see the Mad Hatter and the Cheshire Cat.
She hesitates but she touches the mirror and she gasps when the glass dances, it's almost like it's not glass at all and it's rubber. She laughs, then puts her hand through the glass rubber, it goes through then she walks through the glass into Wonderland.
But where she's going isn't wonderland, she has never read about this land in books or seen it in movies what she's about to experience will be the most epic adventure in her life, and little does Jasmine know that that epic adventure will soon change her life, forever.
