A Sick Day
by Gregory Dwayne Co
*Cough* *Cough* *Cough*
Poor Oswald, he can't say anything with a sore throat. He's at his bedroom laying on his mattress, together with Minnie, Mickey, and Ortensia eyeing on him. Oswald felt unwell yesterday night when he was sleeping with his girlfriend, he woke up at pass midnight and felt a headache, which also leads to fever. He groined in pain, rubbing his head. He felt very uncomfortable, and can't even sleep because of that. Later on in the morning, he started to cough very badly, and started to get a sore throat. Ortensia was putting an ice pack on his forehead, and put her palm on the side of his neck to feel any warmth. She felt worried about him, so does his brother, Mickey, and Minnie.
"How're you feeling?" Mickey asked his sick brother in a soothing voice.
"I'm *cough* *cough* fine," Oswald replied back, "Thanks Mick."
He then looked at Ortensia. "Ortensia, do you think he'll be fine?" He asked her.
"I don't know," Ortensia said, then peeped at her sick lover, and back to Mickey, "but it could take a few days for him to feel better."
Mickey then felt down, and Oswald told him.
"Don't worry about me, I'm going to be fine. I could use some medicine." He turned to Minnie, "Minnie, can you go downstairs and grab medicine? It's at the kitchen cabinet at your left."
"Sure." Minnie replied back.
She went downstairs to the kitchen to get medicine for sore throat. She opened the cabinet at her left, and found the medium-sized bottle of cough syrup. She even got the metal spoon to scoop up with. She went back up and gave it to Ortensia. For a while after he ate the medicine, Mickey and Minnie decided to leave.
"Mickey, we better get going, it's getting late." Minnie said, holding his shoulder.
"Right," Mickey then looked at Oswald and tells him, "Oswald, I better go. Thank you for letting us stay here."
"No problem Mick, *cough* *cough* anytime. I will be better soon."
"See ya guys!" The mice waved in unison.
"Bye bye!" The rabbit and cat replied back in union as well.
Mickey and Minnie got out of their room and closed it gently.
"Now honeybunny, go get some rest, I'll be back for you." Ortensia said in the soothing voice, and kissed his forehead.
"Thanks. *yawn*"
Oswald then got his eyes shut and slept in peace. Ortensia got of the his room, and closed it gently for not to disturb him. Don't worry, he'll feel better one day.
THE END
(A.N.: I decided to make this very short story because I'm sick. I got a sore throat, and a bad minor headache. So don't worry about me, my throat will be better soon. I pray to God for this. Also, I want all readers to leave some suggestions on my next story, and about the 2 unfinished stories, I'm still thinking about what will happen next. I am trying my best to finish them as soon as possible. Thank you and God Bless You.)
