I will say that I woke up from my nap a lot more refreshed. It is not often that I tell myself that I need a nap but I am happy I decided today was a good day.
"What did I miss," as I said this I yawned so I am not sure if anyone understood me.
"I take it you had a good nap?" said Rosa with a smirk on her face.
"Extremely, so like I asked what did I miss?"
"Nothing really. Its been a slow day."
"Well, that's good news."
I walked back over to my desk and looked to see if there was anything interesting that Rosa might not know about.
"Junk, Junk, don't deal with me, junk, junk."
I am not awake enough yet to deal with paperwork so I took a look at my phone. Nothing from Amy. That could either be a good thing or a very bad thing. I decided to give her a call.
It rang three times.
"Hello."
"Hey babe what's going on hows my mini-me?"
"Definitely has been better. I am wearing vomit-soaked clothes your daughter is currently in the tub. She has a 101.2-degree fever. So its been peachy."
"Would you like me to come home to take over so you can at least get in the shower?"
"If you can manage that would be great. We also need to take her into urgent care because the vomiting is getting old and the fever scares me. I called her doctors office earlier and they said the soonest they can get her in is tomorrow afternoon." She was starting to sound like she was going to have a panic attack.
"Ames let me go check with the Captain but I should be home soon depending on traffic."
"Please do everything you can. She just threw up in the tub."
The line went silent. Amy does not do well with vomit. Even her own.
I went over to Holts office. His door was wide open.
I knocked on the door frame and said, "Hey Captain, is it possible for me to go home early today?"
"How are your open cases?"
"Most are completed. Waiting on witnesses to come in as well as surveillance footage. Those cases I have been working on with Rosa and Charles and they said that they would cover for me if anything came through."
"I take it Sargent Santiago is not doing well with the bodily fluids at home." "Not at all. Considering she is wearing some and I guess our tub is covered."
"Go home it sounds like she needs some time away."
"Thank you, Captain."
I went and logged out of my computer and grabbed my coat from my locker.
Time to go rescue my woman from the vomit monster also known as Hannah our daughter.
Sorry I know it has been awhile since I updated. I have been having some medical issues that have made it hard for me to write. I plan to get back on a normal schedule to keep the story moving.
