"Marieee." I called lazily. She was supposed to leave 15 minutes ago, I'm trying to check if somehow I am lucky enough that she hasn't left yet.

We came back from Santorini yesterday, today was supposed to be our resting day but when is Chase not working?

"Picooo." I turned my head towards Pico who was playing with Chase's knitted teddy bear that got lost a few days ago. I swear this cat keeps testing the waters. "Give that back, I don't want you to be homeless." I sighed.

He heard me calling him and jumped on the bed. I snatched the bear from his mouth, he almost scratched me to get it back.

"You want to go out or not?" I managed to ask with all the coughing. I think I am sick.

Pico jumped down from the bed and came back with his leash two minutes later.

"Do I look okay?" I asked. He gagged. He fucking gagged. I won't change now, let him get embarassed, moreover my outfit wasn't even bad. I'm wearing Chase's hoodie with black leggings.

"Come here." I bent down, putting on his leash. "You won't scratch any kid this time okay?" I asked. "No chasing dogs." He looked up at me. "Good, let's go."

I got up, I need some cough syrup and maybe some Vicks for the blocked nose I have. Never going on any vacation again.

I left a note for Chase in case he came back earlier that we went out before leaving. I wasn't in the mood to drive so we walked to the medical store.

"Can I have those candies too?" I asked the cashier, looking at the candies behind her.

"How many?" She asked.

"Five." She added them to my bill before handing me the medicines. I thanked her before leaving.

"You think we should go to the mall or something?" I asked Pico. Now that we've come out of the house already, why not take some advantage? I took some syrup to help with my cough as we walked to the mall.

"I'm sorry ma'am, animals are not allowed inside." The guard said.

"Why not? I swear he's disciplined." I told him at the same time Pico slapped the little kid's hand who was trying to touch him. The guard shrugged. "Fine." I didn't have the energy to argue with him. It's better to go home.

I looked inside the mall one last time before starting to walk away. I felt my phone buzz as I was squinting my eyes to see if I was actually seeing a dog inside or not. I was about to start arguing but the buzzing phone took my attention.

"Hi." I said, answering the call.

"Are you okay?" Chase asked from the other side.

"Yep. Just a lil blocked nose, when will you be back?" I asked.

"Just there, you want me to get something for you?" He asked.

"No, can you pick us up?" I ask, telling him our location. "I'll be there in a few minutes." He told me before hanging up.

"We don't have to walk back." I informed Pico who was looking at a dog passing by with his owner. Not again. I picked him up in my arms before he runs away.

"I'm never going to bring you anywhere with me again." I tell him, shaking my head. He tries to get on my head, I already can't breathe, what does he want?
