(Ok. I'll wait.)
Hey!)
She set it down on the cutting board. “Wanna try crushing it? “, she said to Marco.
"Sure. Why not." Marco moved over to Phoebe and gave her a questioning glance. "What do I crush it with?"
Phoebe handed him a knife. “Use the flat side, and tell me if you need help.”
Marco smiled, "I'm so stupid." He started to crush the garlic into tiny pieces.
Phone shook her head. “Not stupid. Just less experienced.”, she said firmly, squeezing his shoulder lightly and removing the pot from the stovetop.
Marco finished and brought the cutting board over to Phoebe. "What do I do now?"
Phoebe slid the bowl with Miles’ sauce over to him. “Nice job! Just mix that into here, and I’ll grate the cheese.”, she smiled at him.
Marco remembered baking cookies with his mom when he was younger. How she'd told him to carefully mix the dry ingredients in with the wet. He was good at that. Marco's eyes started to water and he put the board down and gripped the counter.
Phoebe glanced over, tilting her head slightly. Her eyes filled with concern. “What’s wrong?”, she asked softly, laying a hand in his shoulder.
Marco shook his head and turned around to hug Phoebe.
The hug surprised Phoebe slightly, but she quickly sank into it, wrapping her arms comfortingly around Marco.
Marco backed out of the hug and continued mixing in the garlic. "Cooking brings back memories," he said simply. "I'll be fine."
Phoebe have him a light squeeze, sending that he wouldn’t want to be coddled. “Do you like to bake?”
"Anything that involves a stirring motion brings back the memory," Marco finished with the garlic and put the cutting board into the sink.
Wait—isn’t good?)
(Oh thx)
“Sorry.”, Phoebe said quietly.
"It's fine. I'll go find a cafe´ or something."
Phoebe’s hand found his briefly, before she pulled away to drain the pasta, wishing she knew how to comfort Marco further.
Micah didn't dare interrupt their conversation. He awkwardly leaned against the wall so he didn't have to use the crutch.
(I'm just checking in but I have to leave again)
(Yeah I gtg too.)
(Aw bye guys)

Mariko walked over to Micah and made sure Marco and Phoebe weren't looking before she kissed him on the cheek.
