Chapter 20 Have It Your Way

Emma's POV

"Ah, Emma is that you?" Agnes asked when she stopped what she was doing to take me in. "Wow, my child. I always knew you were very beautiful." She added as she wrapped her arms around me.

I wiped a tear of happiness from my eye. I had missed her. I felt kind of guilty for forgetting about her, but Halley had become nice to me and we were bonding nicely.

"I've missed you at the house. What are you doing here?" I asked breaking from our hug.

"Mr. Hollen called me a few days ago and invited me here to cook while you all are here. Now, get out of my kitchen. I've got everything under control. Go and enjoy the beach or the front yard."

"I came here because I was hungry."

She opened the oven and took out several large trays. She prepared a plate of pineapple chicken, rice and peas, potato salad, macaroni pie and a slice of lasagna.?

My mouth watered.

"Eat dear." She said as she handed me the plate.
