4. Getting Back to Work and Camp Fires

once my week off ended everything went back to normal for the most part. my training with ghost started again and there was another mission coming up. we needed to go to Mexico, but no one told me why. after a bit i went back to my old self always being quite. it was nice to speak without having panic attacks every 5 minuets. i spoke when needed or if i was asked a question, and i somewhat had a small smile on my face.

it was movie night tonight, but that was later right now i had training. i was stood in the field waiting for ghost... i think we had training today, im not sur- i was then pinned to the ground by ghost. "ya'know, ya should have been paying attention, the enemy could have easily killed you" i rolled my eyes "yeah well you cough me off guard, twas a mistake that would have costed me." he let me up. he huffed "again" i nodded my head and our epic fight begun. i tried to hit but he blocked. then he tried to hit me and i blocked and we did that back and forth a few times. "so-" he tired hitting me again i dogged it. "you know anything about this mission were going on?" i try to hit him a few times. he rolled his eyes. " i think i liked you better when you didn't speak" i put a hand over my chest and moved out of the way from his hit "well im quite offended" he rolled his eyes again "just focus on the training grim" i huffed and continued not speaking for a bit. he usually called me grim when i got on his nerves, only he's called me that so far. i didn't mind. he called training off a bit early today. he looked like he was in his head today, so was i. we went inside.

i went to the brake room and price was making something in the kitchen, so i looked to see what he was doing. he noticed i was there. "wanna help?" i nodded my head. "wash your hands and turn theses into patties." i look at the clock me and ghost did training around 5ish. it was 5:30 now. i washed my hands and he handed me balls of meat to turn into patties. i did so and set them on a plate he gave me. there were about 25 patties. i washed my hands again and followed price outside holding the plate of patties. there was a camp fire and a small table. "just put them on the table, then go get some fire wood." i nodded my head and did so.

i walked around and picked up sticks that were laying around. i came back with a big arm filled stick pile. "just put then in the pit over there" i nodded again and did what he said. he had pulled out a grill while i was getting sticks, and he was getting it ready for the food. i looked at him for more intrusions. he looked at me and sighed "you know how to make fries from just potatoes right?" i nodded my head. " go do that, they should be in one of the cabinets." i nodded again and went to go do what he said.

once i got to the kitchen. i looked in the cabinets nothing, then i looked in one of the higher shelfs, sadly i was short and couldn't reach the bag even if i was on my toes. i heard a chuckle then someone grabbed the potatoes for me, i turned around to see ghost holding the potatoes i needed to cut. i blink at him a few times. "can i have the potatoes please?" he shook his head. "make me" my face went a bit red. i huffed "ok wash your hands and the potatoes, while i get everything we need"

i had a sly smile on my face. he just stood there. i looked at him "well don't just stand there, get moving" he did what i said and washed the potatoes and his hands. i gave him a bowl to put them in so water didn't go everywhere. "come over here when your done with that" all he did was hum in response. i grabbed two knifes and two cutting bords. i grabbed the seasonings we needed along with some oil. once he was done i quickly wash my hands and went back to where i was. he already put the bowl down and waited for further instructions.

i pointed to the knife and he picked it up. i did the same with mine. i grabbed a potato and so did he, i started to cut one side of it then flipped it so it would be on the flat side we had just cut and repeat. once the potatoes were in long slices i started to cut them into more thinner them now looking like fries. i made sure not to go too fast so he could keep up with me. once we did that to all the potatoes. i told him how much oil to put in. and he did so while i washed my hands, i went back to where he was after i was done. i handed him some pepper i told his to sprinkle it on along with the salt. i grabbed the corn starch, and sprinkled it in so when they cooked it would make crispy. he looked at me confused. "it makes them crispy when they cook. could you mix them together for me please?" he nodded his head and did what i asked. i grabbed two pans and put some oil on them. the oven was preheated to 400. so we both put the fries on the pans then put them in the oven to cook for 20 minuets flip then another 20.
