After school was over, Gabriella looked all over for Charles but could not find him. She became worried. So she made up her mind to ask Tamara where he was.
" Hey Tamara" she called seeing her all alone
" hi?"
" Uh.. I did not see Charles in school today, is everything fine?"
" not really, he's sick."
" oh..um I just wanted to give him his scarf back and a replacement guitar for the one he lost last night"
" he lost his...no wonder I did not hear music from his room"
" so? are you giving him?" Gabriella asked hoping she would say no
" no, I actually have a date with Dan today. I'm sorry bit you'll have to give him yourself"
" it's fine. I'll give him myself then.Have fun on your date"
" I sure will, thank you" Tamara said running to Dan
" why were you talking to her" Violetta asked disgusted and bitterly
" come on she's nice."
" no your talking to her because Charles is her brother and you like him"Violetta asked crossing her arms on her chest.
" no its because she's nice. I wouldn't talk to her if she was a mean ass like Angelica"
" I hear my name, Gabriella. I forgive you for not being a mean ass like me" Angelica said catwalks away
" can I beat her up?" Violetta asked
" I'm definitely a bad influence on you. You go ahead"
" nah...I'm going to meet Ivo. I promised to hang out with him after school"
" you guys are back together?"
" nooooo. we're just ...hanging out." Violetta giggled walking away
" have fun." Gabriella said walking to her car" Kim, we're going to Charles house"
" he's not in school?"
" do I need to answer it?"
" no need "
At Charles House
" Charles, you must drink this soup. Come on here comes the choo choo train" his mom said
" no,no...ahh" He groaned rolling away from his mother as he fell to the ground
" your sick, you haven't put anything in this mouth since morning. You. must. drink
. this. soup" His mom said forcing a spoon of soup into his mouth
" no...I'm going to...." he groaned again as he threw up on his mother and in the soup" oops"
" ugh..for God's same,Charles. This is the seventh time today, where's the food your throwing up coming from?" his mother complained
" sorry" he said sincerely
" don't worry, baby. go to bed,ill just go clean up,okay?" his mom said leaving him to take a bath. On her way to the kitchen, someone rings the door bell.
" good afternoon, Mrs Winston " Gabriella greeted as soon as she opened the door
" oh dear, please come In"
" thank you"
" it's so nice seeing you in person "
" you too, Mrs Winston "
" your here for Charles huh?"
" Yes I am"
" you mean your boyfriend ?"
" boy...no"
" then he's your crush?"
" I think personal space is what I need now"
" come on your the only girl Charles talks about these days"
"is he home?"
" Yes he is. He's upstairs, he hasn't eaten anything since morning and he's been vomiting. He's done it seven times today * groans from upstairs * yup that's the eighth" she said sadly
" do you mind if I go?"
" no i don't mind at all"
" thank you"
" no problem,dear. Could you please stay with him for some time. I need to go grocery shopping, this freezer needs to be stocked. it's becoming empty"
" sure,I would love to stay"
" alright then. I'll be on my way" she said and left
In Charles room, Gabriella just barged in without knocking,when she entered she saw coming out of the bathroom with only a towel
" Gabriella?" He called surprised
" oh my God, I'm so sorry" she said and ran out. When she came back, she just rested on the door. Unknowingly to her, Charles was about to open the door. As he opened it,she just fell back....
