Kerry sat down on the sofa crossing her long bare legs. She knew this would get lizzie.
Lizzie noticed the movement and looked at her.
"this is. Weird telling people right after. Yeah...," she said breathing the word out.
"yeah it's. We're just a phone call or text away and I don't live that far away. You know. We're here for you," kerry said.
Lizzie smiled: "yeah I know. Thanks."
"so who's hungry?" I asked.
I wasn't a particularly emotional person. Getting people or food. Or doing something physical was my way of helping.
"um I am a little," lizzie saidknowing this.
"what do you think about mashed potatos?"
"mmm those sound good."
"ok."
I went into the kitchen.
