"No you can't" said Kira
"This isn't fair" said Kimi "Why did I have to be the one to get the flu" she said
"I am sorry your sick" said Kira "But with rest you should feel better in a couple days"' she smiled at her before closing the door.
The house seemed quiet, it wasn't time for Chuckie to come home yet. He will probably end up wanting to go over to Tommy's house to play basketball which Kira didn't mind.
"Hello Anyone Home" Chaz called when he got home.
"In here" Kira called who was in the kitchen making soup for Kimi.
"Smells good in here" Chaz said as he sat down at the table.
"Chicken Soup" Kira said "It's for Kimi. She came home and is sick with the flu"
"The flu" Chaz said "Are you sure?" he asked her.
"Took her to the doctor and she tested positive for it" Kira said
Kimi was asleep when Chaz came in to see her so he didn't want to wake her up.
Back in school, Lil was trying to avoid the flu at all cost. She hated being sick more than anything else. She had a dance recital this weekend and she didn't want to miss it and she wanted to see Kimi in the play as well. If she got sick, she couldn't do either.
It stared snowing that afternoon as the kids got on the bus. "Maybe tomorrow will be a snow day" said Phil
"Maybe" said Lil
"Anyone heard from Angelica today?" Tommy asked them as he got on the bus followered by Chuckie "I didn't see her yesterday or today"
"Nope" they all said
"I have" said a voice they recognized as they turned around they saw that it was Susie.
"Where is she?" asked Lil who had become good friends with Angelica these past few months.
"She has the flu" said Susie
Angelica hated having a cold but she hated having the flu the most. For the past few days all she had done was stay in bed which got pretty boring after awhile.
"Feeling better?" Drew asked Angelica as he carried in a tray with chicken soup on it and placed it in front of Angelica
"Not really" coughed Angelica "I just want to get back to school" she said
"Not until your fever has broken" said Drew "And your sore throat and cough have gone away" he added
"But the field trip" sneezed Angelica
"I guess you'll have to miss it" Drew said
When Lil got home from school that day, she was surprised to see her Mom on the couch. "Don't tell me you have the flu too" Lil said
"Just relaxing" said Betty
As Lil closed her bedroom she was trying to think of ways to prevent herself from getting sick but she was running out of time. As Lil went into the kitchen and poured herself a class of juice her phone went off. It was Kimi
"Have the flu" said Kimi with a cough
"Not you too" said Lil "I am hoping I don't get it now"
"You don't want it" said Kimi "I think I have sneezed so many times that my head will come off"
"Feel better" said Lil before she hung up
"Thanks" said Kimi
Chuckie was feeling pretty good when he went to bed that night and was hoping that by tomorrow he wouldn't wake up sick. He knew with Kimi sick that there was a possibility that he would be next.
The next morning came fast and Chuckie was great as he got ready for school. The only one missing at the bus stop that day was Kimi and Dil who both have the flu.
"2 down and 4 to go" said Tommy when he got on the bus. "We will probably all end up with it before long"
"Don't say that" said Lil "I can't get sick" she said "I just can't" she said but not before she sneezed.
So there are 2 of the kids now flu but none of the adults. Not sure who the next one is going to be, possibility Lil or Kira
