I looked down at the ground and said quietly. "My head is pounding."
The officer smirked "I might have something that'll help." He nodded his head telling me to follow him.
We walked out of the room, down a flight of stairs and straight to the bathroom.
He opened a cabinet and was searching for something.
He grabbed a pill bottle and pulled out two tablets and gave them to me.
I put them in my mouth and swallowed. It went down roughly but I got through it. "Thank you... sorry I didn't catch your name...?" I asked quietly.
" You are very welcome, the names Jesse." He said while smiling a big smile at me. "Are you hungry?"
I didn't even have to answer that question, my body answered it for me.My face shot up and my stomach grumbled very loudly.
He could tell I wanted food.
Jesse walked over to the kitchen and pulled out a plate, he filled the plate with a mountain of pancakes, my eyes just widened. I walked over to the island and sat down.
Jesse slid the pile of pancakes in front of me and handed me a fork.
It didn't take long for me to scarf the food down my throat. He looked surprised.
I cleared my throat. "Thank you" I said looking down embarrassed.
"You can go sit on the couch and watch TV." Jesse said while cleaning up the kitchen.
I got up, walked over to the couch and grabbed the remote.
I saw from the corner of my eye Jesse walking towards me with a paper and a pen.
He sat down next to me and smiled. "So whats your name?"
"Maya" I said quietly.
"How old are you?"
"16".
"Why did you-"
"Dad! I'm home!"
