Xan went and pulled on the dress that had been abandoned on Charlie's bed the night before. She watched Charlie a moment before she went away tot he kitchen to make an omelet. As was typical of meals she made, even  the omelet, was meat heavy. There were vegetables and even some cheese. Today though the omelet was just slightly different, the scent was akin to the salve, and there was lots of the vegetables Pookie had told Charlie to eat. Xan wanted that bruise gone sooner rather than later, she didn't like that other people were laying their hands on her baby.
