Nodding, Jackson sat up and put his pillow behind his back so he could lean against it. Given the situation, Mikey grabbed another pillow from a separate bunk to prop him up high enough to eat. Appreciating the gesture, Jackson gave him a small smile, but didn’t say a single word because he was afraid of what he might say.
Waiting until Jackson could sit up enough to eat, Mangus put the plate and bowl on his lap with a glass of milk on his table while Mikey brought the colonel a cup of coffee. Looking down at the plate, which contained a nice portion of scrambled eggs, a bowl of oatmeal and a piece of toast. Picking up his fork and placing a bite of eggs in his mouth, Jackson’s chaotic mind realized he was actually hungry and ate every bite.
