179. Olivia - New friend II

Jasper looks at my feet. "When you are fully healed."

I don't show him how disappointed I am since I was looking forward to seeing the horses. "Next time, then."

He gets out of bed and goes to his closet, putting on clothes and boots before returning to me with a clean shirt. "Once this snowstorm passes and Jason is no longer a pain in the ass, I will make a quick trip to the city to buy you clothes and whatever else you need."

"Can I come with you?"

It's been so long since I last went shopping, I forgot how fun it used to be. It was so when Camila and I spent hours in the mall. After...Jason took to me the Celestial Heaven, my freedom taken away from me, I never once when shopping again. Jason brought me whatever I needed.

Jasper helps me put on the shirt. "I don't think that's be a good idea." Of course Jasper won't take me with him. I am his property not his girlfriend. He picks me up in his arms. "How about breakfast?" "I am not hungry."

"Well, you need to eat so you can get better."

Jasper takes me to the kitchen and puts me on a chair. Mose is in front of the stove, cooking.

Miss Teapot gets up from her basket and comes to where Jasper is standing and meows while rubbing against his legs.

"Food will be ready in a few minutes," Mose lets us know.

"Remember, Olivia can't tolerate spicy things," Jasper says. "I will go feed the animals and be back in a few minutes. Can you take care of Miss Teapot?" Jasper asks me.

"Of course."

The food for the cat is in the cabinet close to her basket, and after filling her bowl and checking to see if she has water, I ask Mose,
