Chapter 286: Chapter 286 I Need To Take It Back

Sophia’s POV

“How are you, honey?” my aunt asked as she ran her fingers through my hair.

I couldn’t answer that. I wasn’t sure what I was feeling. So many emotions were flowing through my body and it was so hard for me to name them all. I knew that I was terrified. I knew that I was sad.

“I don’t know,” I mumbled. “I don’t know how to describe it.”

My aunt sighed and kissed the top of my head.

“Your dad mind-linked me,” she said. “The boys are on their way back. Your dad said not to let them go back there without them eating and sleeping first.”

I agreed with my dad. All of us barely slept for the last few days. Lex especially. He needed to rest a little. I could tell that he was on edge and needed a break from everything.

“Do you want to help me make them something to eat?” my aunt asked and I nodded immediately.

I needed something to distract me from all of those emotions I felt. I had to distract myself before I lost it completely.

I stood up and approached my aunt. She smiled and handed me a bowl and a whisk. I took it from her and placed it on the counter. I was staring in front of myself and I didn’t even realize that my aunt had already placed a carton of eggs in front of me.

“Sophie?” she called me softly. “Why don’t you go sit down? I will take care of everything.”

I flinched a little and looked at her.

“No, it’s okay,” I said as I opened the carton and grabbed an egg. “I want to help.”

I wasn’t sure what we were making, though. My aunt probably told me, but I was too distracted to listen to her. She gave me a whisk and a bowl so she probably wanted me to use that, right?

I started cracking the eggs and putting them in the bowl in front of me.
