The estranged family

Chapter 43-Taking care of

"I've given you some meds and fluids so try sleeping, we're gonna monitor your fever" sophia said

"Ok" I replied. Eventually I did fall asleep and it was nice, I mean I still felt like shit but it was better.

I woke up 4 hours later, feeling a lot better. I looked at the monitor hooked up and it looks like my fever went down. I looked outside to see it's already dark.

"Knock knock" sophia said knocking on my door

"Hi" I said

"How are you feeling?" She asked

"Better" I replied

"Well, we got your results back. It looks like you have bronchitis" she said

"Seriously?" I questioned

"Yes, but we're gonna give you some meds and you should be better in about a week" she said

"Ok" I replied. She exited the room, letting me be alone

"Skylar, can I talk to you" Tyler said walking in

"What" I replied

"I'm sorry, it's my fault you are sick and I should have helped you when you first developed it. I'll be here for the rest of however long you're sick for" he said

"It's fine, I-

I started coughing a lot and couldn't stop for a good while

"Drink some water" he said handing me the cup with a straw. I started drinking the water, hoping it helps the cough.

"I mean it, I will be helping. I want to make it up" He replied

"Ok" I mumbled not wanting to fight. I stayed at the hospital for the night then was planned to be discharged in the morning.

The next morning I was ready to go and going home with medicine. Tyler took me home and first thing he did was helped me upstairs.

"Ok, I'm gonna bring you some chicken noodle soup with some crackers and electrolytes" he said

"Ok" I replied

He went downstairs and 20 minutes later he came back with a tray of stuff.

"So I didn't have Gatorade but I do have organic coconut water" he said

"Thank you" I replied. He sets down the tray and turns out the tv

"So what are we watching?" He asked

"We?" I questioned

"I will be watching a movie with you while you eat some food. I told you I will be making it up to you" he said

"Ok" I replied

"So what are we watching?" He asked

"Fast and furious, I've been meaning to finish the series of movies" I said

"Ok" he replied.

We both watched the whole movie and it wasn't bad hanging out with him.

"I talked to your coach about being sick so don't worry about soccer, and your cousins dropped off your homework." He said

"Ok, we'll I should probably start on it" I said

"Ok, if you need any help you can ask. I'll be here" he replied

"Ok, thank you" I said. He left my room and started my homework. I didn't understand some stuff but not wanting to ask Tyler because what happened last time.
