The Mess I Made
Chapter Seventeen
The smell of ammonia burned my nose, and I think even I began to annoy myself with the constant tapping of my sneaker against the tile floor. I heard a sigh, and twisted in the leather seat to see my Mom wearing a tired expression.
"How is she?" Elliot asked, beating me to the punch. I cared about Sam, though..showing it wasn't really my thing.
"She's..a little bit jumpy, but wouldn't you be?"
"Can either of your children go without something happening to them?" Casey asked with a slight smile, looking at Olivia thoughtfully.
"I don't know, Case," She answered with a smile, shaking her head as she sat down beside me.
I was curious about Samantha, yes, but at the same time..she freaked out of me and I didn't know how to react to that. After finding out about the LSD, I knew that it was going to be a little different around her. I knew that I'd treat her differently even if I didn't want to or mean to.
But I also knew that she wasn't going back anytime soon. No matter what I had to do to keep her safe.
