The Murder That Changed Me Forever

Chapter 25

I wake up at 5:00 to get ready for the day. I am so ready to go to the psychiatrist again. I have already thought up what I am going to tell him so that he has to leave his office to talk to Lily. Hopefully this will give me enough time to snoop. Jody texted me last night saying that Agent Morgan knew and that he will give me a single whistle to signify when he is coming back.

I go out to the kitchen, no one is awake so I start cooking a big breakfast for everyone. No one thinks I know how to cook, but I do. I may not eat meat but I was told that I do make killer sausages and bacon. I absolutely refuse to eat that though.

I take notes on who wants what in their omelets.

Justin- A bacon, sausage, green pepper, jalapeno, mushroom, and cheese

Jody- Bacon, sausage, cheese, mushroom

Josh- Cheese, bacon, sausage, mushroom

Lily- Bacon, cheese, sausage, and mushroom

Agent Morgan- Bacon, cheese, sausage, mushroom, green pepper, and

Jalapeno

Me- Cheese, green pepper, mushroom, jalapeno

I make the omelets in order and add hashbrowns on the side. Homemade hashbrowns I should say.

" Oh my god, Jessica, I did not know you could cook. These omelets are amazing. Where did you learn to do this?" Justin tells me.

" Well my dad taught me when he wasn't busy. Plus I would make my parents breakfast in bed and they always gave me tips until I had it perfect. And thank you so much for the compliment on my cooking," I respond almost shy.

" How many things can you cook?" Lily asked me curiously.

" Well you see, whenever the cook in our house was sick I would end up cooking. I can make almost anything. I even have my own recipes. I make all my food homemade. Even when I cook pizza. Which I think I want to make tonight."

" Jeez. Go right on ahead. You can cook whenever you want to cook. You are so good at it. I am glad you enjoy it too," Josh tells me.

" I really like to cook. And if you guys don't feel like cooking some days, just tell me and I will make something. I will just need a bit of a heads up, especially if it's noodles. The noodles I make are homemade as well."

" Oooo, that sounds amazing," Josh says. " Just be careful with your arm in that brace. You should be resting still."

" I can sit still though. I can't just sit in bed all day wondering what will happen next. I need to be up and moving. I will be as careful as I can," I express myself to him.

" Okay, Jessica," Josh practically whispers.

" Hey Jessica. Let me help you get a bag on your shoulder so you can take a bath or a shower," Lily suggests out of the blue. " After all you do have that appointment today."

" Okay," I can feel my face flush red.

Lily grabs a trash bag and we walk to the bathroom.

I take off my shirt and bra and cover myself up with my good arm as I sit on the toilet. Lily then takes the trash bag and duct tape and starts covering my wound.

" Ow, what are you doing?" I ask impatiently.

" I have to seal the wound and make it airtight so no water can get in," she informs me. " Afterwards we are going to have to clean your wound and I will give you your meds after the bath... Got it?"

" Yes, I got it... Ouch, what the hell?"

" LANGUAGE! How many times do I have to tell you to not talk like that."
