Kagura's P.O.V
I woke up to my head pounding and my stomach cramping. Geez, I woke up much earlier than usual this morning. Maybe I went to bed too early last night. I sat up in my bed and looked at my clock that was a little hard to see in the dark. "5:25AM?" I thought to myself. I didn't have to be at school until 9 and I usually start getting ready at 8. I shrugged it off and went to my grandfather's room since he's usually awake around this time. I tried to be quiet in case he was still sleeping and poked my head in the doorway. He was in his bed reading and probably didn't notice my presence. I must have been standing there for about two minutes until he looked up from his book. "You're up earlier than usual, Kagura. Is everything okay?" My grandpa, Yagura said. "I'm fine or at least I think I am..." I said a bit unsure. "Hmm... Come here, Kagura." He said and I went to the side of his bed. He put his book down and looked me in the eyes. "What's wrong, Kagura?..." He asked, a bit more stern this time. "It's nothing to worry about. I'm okay..." I said. "Hm... Alright. But if something's wrong, come to me. I will always be here for you, Kagura." He said. "I know, Grandpa." I told him.
As soon as I left my grandpa's room, I began to feel very light headed. The next thing I knew, I was leaning against the wall and Grandpa Yagura was standing next to me with a worried look on his face. "Kagura, are you okay?" He asked. "I-I'm fine... I just don't feel very well right now..." I said, trying not to worry my grandfather. "Alright, go lay back down okay? I'll wake you up when it's time for you to get ready." "Okay, Grandpa..." I used whatever strength I had to make it to my room and flopped face down on my bed which was still warm somehow. After laying there for a few minutes my stomach started feeling a little upset. I heard my grandpa come towards the stairs that were just a few feet from my room.
"Ugh my stomach hurts..." I said, but didn't realize that I had said it out loud. "Maybe if you try to eat something you'll feel better." my grandpa said. "I don't think it's because I'm hungry." I said. "Are you talking back to me, grandson?" Yagura said as he narrowed his eyes at me. My grandpa Yagura always narrows his eyes when he knows you're lying or when he knows something's up or something's not right. "N-no grandpa." I said. "Hmm... Okay. Well in that case, try to get some more sleep, Kagura." He said and went downstairs.
All of the sudden my stomach let out a loud weird gurgling sound and then I felt a huge cramping sensation in my lower abdomen. I heard my grandpa come back up the stairs. "Was that your stomach I heard when I was coming up the stairs?" He asked. "Y-yes..." my face was probably a bright red now. "Hold on Kagura, I think I've got something that might help." My grandpa said. He turned around and went back downstairs and came back a few seconds later with a small cup filled with some kind of clear cough syrup-looking liquid. "Here take this Kagura." He said. I took the small cup and gulped down the liquid, then my grandpa gave me a cup of water to wash it down. "Yuck!" I said sticking my tongue out. My grandpa chuckled. "Medicine isn't supposed to taste good." he said. "Just to let you know ahead of time, this medicine will make your stomach feel better but it'll get worse before it gets better." He said before leaving my room.
A few minutes later I realized what he meant when I got a rushing feeling in my lower abdomen.
