Strange day

38

Something was strange today. And I am not just saying that because I am currently being hunted. My heart was pumping hard and fast in anticipation. I was very uneasy.

“Why are you always in the kitchen?”

I paused on the dishes and acknowledged Jordan as he made himself comfortable on the kitchen counter. We hadn’t talked since that time in Felix’s room. I had been worried that he wouldn’t want to talk to me again to be honest.

“It helps with stress.” I told him honestly. He hummed. My hands shook for a minute with nerves before I continued with the dishes. Calm down my worried heart, maybe today was not the day.

"If this is how you distress, who am I to judge?" Jordan chuckled.

I felt terrible about the fight we had had inside Felix's room that day. I had not understood why Jordan was not letting me do something. Something that would help every one and get every one out unscathed.
