Under The Weather chapter 5
Over the next few days; Littlefoot seemed to be getting better. He is actually standing up and eating some tree stars. Topsy came by to visit him; the longneck looked down at his father-in-law with a smile on his face.
"Hi Littlefoot; are you feeling better?" Topsy asked.
"Good morning Topsy; yes I am feeling better; but, I'm still a bit tired; at least my throat isn't sore, my joints aren't achy and my stomach isn't upset," Littlefoot said.
Topsy nodded.
"That's good to hear; I wonder how Cera is doing," Topsy claimed.
Littlefoot looked over at Cera and then back to Topsy.
"She's okay; still doesn't have that much of an appetite," Littlefoot admitted.
Topsy nodded.
"She was really bad a few days ago; at least you two are recovering," Topsy replied.
Littlefoot nodded.
"I think I'll be much better tomorrow," Littlefoot stated.
"The kids will be delighted to hear that; they were worrying about you and Cera," Topsy replied.
Littlefoot smiled.
A while later, Littlefoot decided to go talk to his grandparents. He saw them at the Thundering Falls and walked over to them.
"Hi Grandma and Grandpa," Littlefoot said.
The elderly couple were happy to see that Littlefoot was up and around.
"How are you feeling?" Grandma asked.
"I'm doing better; my stomach didn't instantly rebel when I ate a few tree stars," Littlefoot replied.
"That's nice to hear; how is Cera doing?" Grandpa asked.
Littlefoot shook his head.
"She's still running a fever; luckily mine broke in the middle of the night while I was sleeping," Littlefoot explained.
The elderly couple nodded.
"Well, just take it easy today and I'm positive you'll be all better by tomorrow," Grandpa stated.
"That's what I told Topsy; he visited me at my nest earlier to see how I was," Littlefoot said.
Moments later, Amber came by with the kids. She was looking after them for Littlefoot and Cera for the last few days. Littlefoot smiled at his niece for being a good caretaker for her cousins while he and Cera were sick.
"Daddy! You're okay!" the kids exclaimed in unison.
Amber tried to settle them down.
"Take it easy kids; your dad is still recovering from the flu; I'm sorry Uncle Littlefoot; they're just excited to see you," Amber replied.
"That's okay; it's normal since they haven't seen me in a while," Littlefoot responded.
The kids are really glad to see that their dad is feeling much better.
"How's Mama doing?" Maya asked.
"Your mom is recovering slowly; but, she'll get better soon," Littlefoot replied.
Maya smiled and rubbed her head against Littlefoot's foreleg.
Littlefoot decided to head back to his nest and relax. He said goodbye and walked off.
