Chapter 6: Is she sick or depressed?

Dear diary, today is December 15, 2005 and the last day of school for winter break. I'm a little upset though, because Xmas is coming up, and it always make me think of mum and dad. I miss them very very much. And Xmas is the time where I'm supposed to be happy cause all of the presents. Honestly, I'm only in Xmas for the food. Yeah, I'm not a fan of presents. But anyway, I just wished that I can see mum and dad on Christmas day. It would be awesome...GTG help with Xmas decorating, till then, GraceAnne Wonka.

In the Buckett house, Willy and Charlie were helping with the Xmas decorations, but Gracie didn't seem to happy, or to well. Willy went over to see what's up with Gracie, but she just ignored him while staring at the TV.

"Gracie, you better say something before I dip you in chocolate." Willy said.

"...hi" Gracie responded.

"Gracie, I'm serious!" Willy said warningly. Gracie left, and took a walk in the candy meadow. Willy got really confused.

"You might wanna check on her, Mr. Wonka." Charlie suggested.

"Yeah, I guess I should." Willy said. Then he went out to check up on her. He found her sitting under a candy cane tree, the same spot where Charlie was when he got grounded and a little pissed off. Willy went over there to see if she's okay.

"Hey Gracie, you okay?" he asked.

"I just don't feel well, that's all." Gracie responded

"Do ya feel like you're gonna throw up or something?" Willy asked.

"Kinda..." Gracie responded.

"Well then, maybe you should get some rest?" Willy suggested.

"I guess I should." Gracie said. The duo made their way back to their home, and Gracie decided to lay on the couch instead of her bed. She wasn't feeling good at all. Before Willy left, he made sure that Gracie was warm enough, and asked if she needed anything before he left.

When Willy got back, he resumed helping Charlie with the tree. It was silent the whole time, then Charlie asked, "Is Gracie alright, Mr. Wonka?"

"Yeah, she's just running a little fever, that's all." Willy said.

"Oh, I hope she gets better." Mrs. Buckett said.

"Yeah, me too." Willy said. After they decorated the tree, it was time to put the star on it, and everyone insisted that Charlie puts the star on the tree. So since Charlie couldn't reach, Willy picked him up, and sat him above his shoulders, and he put the star on the tree.

After dinner, Willy retreated back to his part of the factory, and found no sign of Gracie on the couch. He went towards her bedroom, and they ran into each other in the hallway.

"What are you doing up?" Willy asked.

"I threw up..." Gracie said, trying not to embarrass herself.

"Then you should probably get some rest."

"Yeah, guess I should." The two made their way to Gracie's room, and Willy tucked her in to sleep. He saw more tears in her eyes, again. Then she started to cry.

"What's wrong, now?" Willy asked.

"I m-miss...them" Gracie chocked out.

"I miss them too, Graciebear." Willy said. "I know how you feel, to be honest."

"Really?" Gracie asked.

"Yeah." Willy said back. "You should probably get some rest, kay?"

"Okay, goodnight Willy."

"Goodnight, starshine."
