CHAPTER 16
SICK
Louise
I wake up without feeling well yet I didn't hesitate to come into school. Before I went to school I prepare the breakfast of my parents and sister. I still take a bath to feel refresh knowing that I'm not feeling well. Yet, I can feel that my body become weak. I fixed myself hurriedly because I don't want to bother tay coz I know he has a lot of things to do. Although, I know that tay is a family driver but I know my parents gave a lot of task to him.
He and his wife are the one who raise me that's why I treated them like they are my true parent coz my real parents are busy taking care of my elder sister. They are busy spoiling and supporting on whatever she wants to do. But, I don't have an ill feeling for my sister yet we grow up detached with each other besides she's always mad at me. I just let her be mad at me even though I didn't do anything bad at her.
When I reach the garage I saw tay waiting at me then I immediately went to him and apologize for making him wait at me for too long. "I'm sorry tay if I make wait for too long. I'm just not feeling that's why I did my routine slowly than usual" I said in a low voice. "It's okay, actually I didn't wait for too long. I just got here when your nay saw you going downstairs. Besides it's still early so won't be late and you're not feeling well. Maybe it's better if you will absent today maybe your professors will understand if you can't attend their class" he said worriedly.
"I won't absent because I still can go to school so you don't have to worry" I said with a smile. "Why did you still take a bath knowing you're not feeling well? Dear, you have to take care of yourself because we are not there to take care of you if you're feeling get worst" he said seriously. "I took a bath to feel refresh because my body is feeling heavy. You don't have to worry because I drink meds before going here" I said and smile weakly.
When we arrived outside the university, before I went out of the car I hug tay and bid goodbye before I went inside the school. I'm walking at the hallway when I saw my friends coming near me. Jenny asked immediately if I'm alright. "Lou, are you sick? You look pale" she said with a lace of concern in her voice. "I'm perfectly fine. I'm not sick" I said with a smile. I know that she's not buying at what I've answered at her coz she keeps looking at me with a creased on her forehead.
We are walking inside the hallway yet we got separated to attend our class. The only left with me is Gav because we are classmates in biology class. When we reached the room there are a lot student already. After a few minutes, our professor arrived and started the discussion immediately.
Our class is done smoothly then were about to come out of the room to went on our next class then I feel dizzy yet I didn't mind it. After fixing my things I stand up then Gav and I were walking to our next class yet I feel an extreme dizziness and my body becomes weak I grip on his arms tight. He looks at me and I collapse but he's fast to catch me immediately before I fall on the ground. "Oh, shit you have a high fever. You are so hot" he said with a curse.
That's what I last heard before I black out. I woke up on the bed of the school clinic. My friends are surrounding me waiting for me to wake up then when they saw me that I'm awake their faces lit up. "What happen? Why I'm here at the clinic?" I asked and looked at Gav because the last time I remember were together on class.
"You fainted before we went to your next class" he said seriously. "Lou, why didn't you tell us that you had a fever. We are so nervous when Gav called us and tell that you have a high fever" Miks said in a very worried tone. "I'm sorry coz I didn't know that my feeling will get worst besides I drink meds before I went to school. I expected after I drink meds my feeling will eventually be better" I said and bow my head.
"I'm sorry also for bothering you guys to be with me here even though you have class to attend to" I said shyly. "What are friends are for? You will never be a bother to us. Besides we are exchanging in staying with you here and the one whose available and vacant class will be the one to be here with you" Jenny said a smile.
"It's already two in the afternoon so you missed your lunch that's why Kev and Arch went to the cafeteria to buy you a food to eat" Gio said with a smile. "Kris will the one to stay here with you" Gav said with a smile. The two arrived bringing my food and left immediately to went on their next class like the others.
We were left in silence then he broke it off. "I feed you coz I know your body is still weak" he said and smile a bit. It's the first time that I saw him smile. He feed me until there's nothing left off. "Here, drink your meds in able for you to be feeling well" he said seriously.
The time past by and it is time to go home already that's why we went together in the parking lot. Miks said that they excused me my class and informed them that I'm sick. Gav is the one who carry my things while Kris carry me. When we reach the parking lot we saw tay waiting for me. He immediately run to us when he saw Kris carrying me.
"What happen to her?" he asked worriedly. "She has a high fever that's why she fainted earlier" Jenny said to him. "Is that it? Thank you for helping our princess" he said and smile at them. "Tay, where is your car so I can put her on the backseat so it won't be hard for you to carry her" he said seriously. Tay teach him where the car park direction is. After that they bid goodbye at us before they went off.
