Chapter 168

Heather POV

I don’t know how long I sat there before Mona and Grandma came in and got me. They didn’t say anything, they just made sure that all the soap was rinsed off. They then dried me and got me dressed. The whole time, I wasn’t much of a help. I just let them do what they needed to feel like they were helping me feel better. I didn’t want to be in bed, so I sat in one of the recliners that were in the room. A couple of minutes after I was seated, there was a knock at the door. Mona opened it to show a nervous, and maybe a bit scared, Molly standing there with a paper bag in her hand. She walked over and put the bag on the table beside me, leaned down, and hugged me. I could see the worried look on her face. She wanted to ask me something but wasn't sure if she should. Instead, she took a deep breath and pointed to the bag. “That’s from Grandma. She thought you might want something to eat but, I’m to tell you to only eat it if you want to. She won’t be offended if you don’t.” Mol
