Chapter 10 - 10

"My goodness –Moonie!"

I scolded as she scrambled off the cookie dough I left on the counter.

Glancing at it, I could see her paw marks on them and just sighed out loudly.

Scraping out the sides her paws were on, I immediately shaped the cookie with my cookie cutter and put them in the oven.

Making sure my alarm for 40 minutes was on.

It's been a week since I've been discharged from the hospital.

I was much better and so was able to make up my mind about leaving my old apartment.

I went through that conversation with Honey and we both thought that it was for the best.

Even though Noel might be locked up, it doesn't warrant me not to be on my toes.

Honey left a while ago to purchase some homely stuff that would make her feel more at home.

She'd been blaming herself for what happened to me which I totally disagreed on.

But as stubborn as she was, she decided to handle all the expenses of me moving in here –apart from paying the rent of course.

As she wasn't around I just decided to whip up some house warming cookies to make it smell homely.

"Meow." Moonie called out, wrapping her tail around my foot.

"Oh well", taking out a jug of milk, I poured some in her bowl and offered it to her to which she happily accepted.

Thank goodness she's quite healed now.

When I first saw her at the vet, I couldn't control my tears as her hands were wrapped in bandages.

But now, I can clearly see how fine she is.

Slumping down on the couch, I put on the television to watch some news and see what exactly is happening since I hadn't touched or watched any screen for a while now.

Nothing much going on I guess.

Toning in to some Netflix, I put on a show that kinda looked interesting to me…hopefully it's as good as it looks.

Not quite long after into the movie, Honey barges in with some groceries and kitchen items.

"My goodness, I guess it's all done. Wow." She groaned, placing everything on the dining table while I helped out.

"Wait..what's burning?"

Oh my gosh!!

The cookies.

Rushing into the kitchen I quickly put off the oven and opened it.

The smell of almost burnt cookies with through my nose eliciting a choked cough out of me.

"Girl what happened? Oh…the cookies still look nice though." Honey came to my side and helped me bring out the oven tray.

She was kinda right but precious cookies looked hard now.

I sighed with a pout on my face.

"Kira it looks okay, the cookies are really nice and would actually go well with warm milk." She suggested after taking a bite of the still hot cookies.

That would actually not be a bad idea. 

Heating up some milk, I added some cocoa and a tiny bit of sugar and everything was done.

Taking a sip of my warm chocolate milk, I sat on the couch beside Honey as she was focused on the show.

Moonie was also

enjoying her warm milk with crushed cookies.

I felt at peace.
