"Now, what the heck is that?"
She waited for the noise to rumble once more as her gaze stared at the messy state she was in through the mirror that hung in front of her. But, thankfully, she no longer heard it.
Waiting for nothing more, she got to soak herself in the square of a silver rock. The shower water ran free and easy, rubbing and washing away all the dampened sweat beads that had once puddled all over her body. She felt relaxed for the time being.
But the headache wouldn't go away.
"Good morning, Mom."
She came down the hall to greet her mother and took a seat at the dining table.
"There you are, my dear!"
Her mother ran out of the kitchen, dropping her apron and placing her hand on Alicia's forehead before pulling the bandana off her head.
She placed the other palm on hers and felt her warm body temperature with the back of her hand, comparing both of their body temperatures.
Mrs. Anderson let out a deep sigh.
