I know lately people have been worried about the coronavirus so I wrote about it. If you haven't read my story on 'first-time parents' you won't really get how Freddie is linked into the story or 'our new family' to do with Marget.
Scott had been quarantined for over a week now he wasn't allowed any physical contact with anyone and he was stuck in what seemed like a bubble, the only way they could talk to anyone is if they care in a silver suit.
Brains came walking into the room wearing a silver suit.
"How long till I get out of here?" Scott whimpered.
Brains removed his hat and put on a mask to protect him from inhaling any toxic air
"Scott you have the coronavirus,"
"You mean the virus that everyone has been worrying about for months,"
Brains nodded, and Scott gave a hard cough
"Oh, crap dad will kill me,"
"Scott, I'm sure he won't, he just wants you better and back as the former team leader,"
Kayo tried to pull the door open and knocked on the door viciously.
"You need to put the silver suit on the side," Brains said, pointing to the suit.
After 10 minutes of confusion, Kayo finally realised what she had to do to see her husband.
Kayo sat next to Scott on the bed and kissed him on the lips through the mask.
"Um S-Scott going back to your original question, you have to be quarantined for another 10 days or at least till your fever has gone,"
"You want to do the honours Kayo?"
"I would dream of it brains," Kayo raved as Brains gave her the thermometer
"Open wide old man,"
Kayo put the thermometer in Scott's mouth
"Baby don't drift asleep yet please," Kayo whispered stroking Scott's hair
"73.6 is his temp brains,"
"Can I go back to sleep now?" Scott said yawning
There was a knock on the door. Alan stood outside the door holding Freddie.
Everyone turned around and smiled at him.
"I better see what he wants," Kayo stormed out
"What do you want Alan?" Kayo pondered as she took Freddie from his arms
Alan's face looked scared and shocked at the same time, and Freddie started crying.
"Oh, no Freddie it's okay I'm only wearing this so I can see daddy," Kayo said rocking Freddie to stop crying
"Freddie can catch now,"
"Aww that is so cute Alan, but I'll believe it when I see it,"
"Here I took a video for you," Alan emphasised, showing Kayo the video
"Who's my big boy now," Kayo said as she threw Freddie in the air with him laughing
"Can you please take him for a couple more minutes while I spend more time with Scott, I haven't seen him for 3 days,"
"It's only been 3 days you two can't last a day without seeing each other,"
"You've been asking for more uncle time with Freddie lately I thought you would have appreciated it,"
"Fine, I'll take him back," Alan complained as Kayo walked back into the room
Alan walked passed the rest of the medical bay and went into his bedroom.
He slumped himself down on to the bed with Freddie next to him.
"You want to help me beat level 101 of cyclone attack,"
Freddie just stared at him, and Alan started laughing
"Your 4 months old you don't even know how to work the controller, watch your cool uncle beat this game," Alan exhilarated in a high pitched voice.
Back in quartine Kayo and Scott were left alone.
"I hate these suits, they stop me nuzzling with you,"
"I know it's been days since we've done it, how's Freddie doing?"
"I left him with Alan to babysit him since he's been asking a lot,"
"Knowing Alan, he's probably teaching him how to play cyclone attack,"
"At least when he gets older he will have a partner to play with." Kayo assumed laughing with confidence.
"Hi Son, how are you feeling?" Jeff said walking in and took a seat next to the bed
"Feeling a little better dad, Brains prototype pills are working,"
"Glad to hear that son,"
Scott took a deep breath "Sorry about not listening to you about what you said about China and the coronavirus,"
"Well make sure you listen to your old man next time hey Scott,"
"But those people were in danger Mr Tracy,"
"Yes Kayo, but health comes first,"
"Kayos right dad it's our job, we've suffered worse,"
"You should've let me or your grandmother go because we had a lower risk of getting it,"
"But-,"
"Just drop it, Scott," Jeff said as he stormed out
"yes dad."
The next chapter will be out on next Monday.
