Chapter 61 - Jo Thompson

Jo POV

“I can do it myself,” I say to Layla, as she stands up to make me some breakfast. I really wished she would let me do it. Her cooking skills are horrible, and I will have to eat, anyway. I stand walking after her into my small kitchen and she looks at me sideways.

“Go back to the couch, get some rest,” she says and I shake my head.

I want to make us breakfast and go back to my normal life; I tell Layla as I open the fridge..

“Seriously Jo, you need to rest, that’s what the doctor said,” Layla says, and now I’ve had enough. She has been here all day yesterday, then she slept on the couch when she told me she was going home, and now she is here still.

I put the eggs on the counter and look at her. “Layla I will not break, according to the doctors he didn’t touch me, yes, he drugged me, I was out of it for a few hours, but that was it,” I say and she looks at me with teary eyes.
