Chapter 232
Chapter 0232 My hand sl*pped around Alec’s arm, holding onto him. Not his hand but his forearm. Why I felt the need to hold onto him and not just hold his hand was something I didn’t want to think about. Thankfully, Alec didn’t try to moveor even question it. He allowedto do what I needed to do. The walk to the garden was the longest walk of my life. Everyday, if not more, I would walk to this garden to escape my life. It never seemed this far away. Alec was feeling protective, and on edge but he kept trying to push calmness to me. Maybe those were my emotions he was trying to take from me but I couldn’t tell right this second. “This looks amazing.” I tried to keep my voice steady as we walked up to the picnic. Penny had put a large around table with an umbrella in the garden. A tablecloth gripped the edges and different fruit, salads, sliders and breads covered the table. “Thank you. I have started cooking and wanted to try a few new recipes. I hope you like them. You will have to tellwhat you think.” Penny smiled warmly at me. I watched as Alec and Colt moved Penny and I between them as Dad and An n sat on the other side of them. Colt sat directly beside An n but there was still enough space for a whole person. Dad didn’t sit very close to her either. “Where did you find the recipes?” An n asked as she scrunched up her nose. She had bent over to smell the sliders.
Penny looked a little uncomfortable. “It was a new cookbook I got.” My back straightened as I look at the sliders. She found the cookbook at mom’s house? These were my mom’s sliders? “Ice?” Colt got my attention and gavea look. My mouth was dry as I tried to unscramble my thoughts. “I think it smells amazing!” Alec put his arm on my lower back, savingfrom answering. “Let’s eat!” Dad said quickly and started putting sliders on his plate. An n took one but pushed it to the side.
I put sbread, salad and pasta on my plate until the sliders caround. Not sure how hungry ! actually was, I put one on my plate and kept passing it. Colt put three like he knew he loved them. “So, Alec. Where you able to eliminate the tunnels?” Dad asked. I was thankful for the change of subject. Deciding to be brave, I grabbed the slider and took a bite. “We did. It went much smoother than I expected. Obviously, we lost a few trees but no damage to the wall. There is a new ravine. I’ll probably get sdirt brought in and fill in the holes.” +15 BONUS The sliders were like a meatball with swish cheese. It had this BBQ sauce that had a different taste to it. Either way, it was amazing. The bun was soft and had a peppery flavor to it. I absolutely loved it. As much as it made my heart ache from the loss of not knowing what else my mom could have made us, I kept my face straight. A tor two, I saw Alec glance over at me. “I have sdirt we can give. Penny had started on a new pool and we needed to lengthen the old one.” Dad said. “Emmy wants to build a new pool too.” I said, smiling at Penny. “I know! She toldabout it last night. She is glowing!” Penny smiled back. “She looked sickly, not glowing.” An n snorted. Dad gave her a look that caused her to roll her eyes and look away. Not sure what he said to her but it seemed to be working. Mrs. Smith Author ” Thank you all for reading!!!
