He lifted his hands, reeking of fish, and waved them in front of her. "Will you help me?"
Jessica Webb glanced at his hands and then, agreeably, nodded her head, picking up the apron to tie it on for him!
"Bend down a little!"
Edward Noah Jackson obligingly bent over, lowering his head!
Jessica Webb slipped the apron over his neck from the inside and then stood behind him, gently reaching out to tie the apron's strings for him!
After this series of actions were complete, she took two steps back, curiously watching him, eager to see how he would cook next!
Edward lowered his head to look at the dress with broken flowers he was wearing. Although he didn't particularly like the color, out of regard for the fact that she had helped him into it, he didn't complain. Instead, he bowed his head and continued working on the fish in his hands!
The fish smelled very fishy...
This was the first time in his thirty years of life... that he had done such a thing!
