Chapter Fifteen: Tummy troubles
Its five o'clock in the morning on Tuesday, November 4, 2008 and it has been two full weeks since Miley had knee surgery on her right knee. Despite the fact that it is a school day neither Miley nor Lilly is going to school. Lilly has an obgyn appointment at nine o'clock in the morning. Also, Miley (a.k.a. Hannah Montana) has a guest appearance on the Mack and Mickey Show at eight o'clock in the morning. Lilly is standing in Miley's bedroom and is standing by the close and locked bathroom door. She is waiting to get into the bathroom and she is wearing an oversized dark purple tee shirt that goes past her knees in length. In addition Lilly is upset and has just got off the phone from talking with her mother. During the phone call she let her mom knew that her sixth week obgyn appointment today. Also, that Dr. Weiss is giving her a ultrasound because the doctor thinks there a chance, she is having twins. After that Lilly mother told her news that could change her life some more. Lilly puts her left hand onto her stomach and simultaneously starts knocking on the bathroom door to get Miley's attention.
"I tell you to use the downstairs bathroom!"
"I do not have to use the bathroom that badly Miley. However, I need to talk because my mom just told me that she is moving to Florida. My mom wants to be near her parents and has found a better job there. I have to make a choice to move to Florida with her or see if my dad will let me move in with him. Also, to see if Oliver parents will be ok with me moving into they house since I am carrying their grandchildren. Just to ask do you think your father will let me live here?"
"Lilly's can we talk about this later because I'm not feeling so hot right now, gagging. Also, the awful smelling watery bowel movement that I am having is not helping me feel any better?"
"Sure I guess we can talk later. However, that not good because Hannah Montana has a guest appearance on the Mack and Mickey Show this morning."
"I know that, will you go downstairs and get the bottle of pepto-bismol out of the downstairs bathroom medicine cabinet. Then bring the bottle of pepto-bismol upstairs and into my bedroom for me?"
"Sure Miley."
Lilly walks away from the bathroom door and walks over to the bedroom door. Once at the bedroom door, Lilly open the door and then she heads downstairs. A minute later she is walking down the hallway that leads to the downstairs bathroom. Once in the downstairs bathroom Lilly grabs the new unopen box of pepto-bismol out of the medicine cabinet and then walks out of the bathroom. Lilly runs upstairs and runs into Miley's bedroom. Once in the bedroom, Lilly sees her best friend sitting on the end of her bed with her left arm wrapped around her stomach and looking pale.
Lilly walks over to the end of the bed and hand Miley the unopen box of pepto-bismol. Then Lilly walks away from her best friend and she walks into the bathroom. Simultaneously Miley open the box and then take the bottle out of the box. She takes the plastic off the cap of the bottle and then tosses the box and plastic into her bedroom trash can. She takes the medicine dose cup off the cap of the bottle and looks at the medicine dose cup that is in her hand. Miley tosses the medicine dose cup onto her bed and then open the bottle. She starts drinking the pepto-bismol right out of the bottle. Lilly walks out of the bathroom a few minutes later to see Miley putting the cap onto the half empty bottle of pepto-bismol. Lilly takes a seat on the sofa and then leans back on the sofa.
"Miley's beside having diarrhea what other symptoms do you have?"
"An awful stomachache, nauseous, a low grade fever and I have a headache too. Why can't I get a break, I seem to be catch everything that is going around the school?"
"Your body still is not recovered physical or metal from the four-month north American tour and is wear out metal and physical. You need a long break from Hannah Montana appears and to slow down. So your body can recover and you can start to feel better."
"You are right and thankful after today I should get a break, if dad can get me out of the outdoor and indoor music festival. Also, Hannah hitting the studio and a record the new songs for the new album, which included the two songs butterfly fly away and the climb."
Miley lies back on her bed and at the same time start crying. Lilly stands up from the sofa and walks over to the side of the bed. She then takes a seat on the edge of the bed. Lilly looks down at Miley and is just about to tap Miley on the shoulder, when Miley jumps off the bed. Then Miley hops on her left leg really fast into the bathroom and slam the door close behind her. Lilly stands up from the bed and walks over to the bathroom door.
"Miley's are you all right?"
"Yes I just had to use the bathroom really badly. Will you go into the Hannah closet and pick me out an outfit to wear on the Mack and Mickey Show?"
"Sure Miley."
Lilly walks away from the bathroom door and heads to Miley's closet, which door is close. Once at Miley's closet, Lilly opens the door. She pushes the clothing to the left and then walks into the closet. Lilly opes the doors to Hannah's closest and then walks into the closet. She walks over to the clothing racks and start to look through the clothing.
A few minutes later Lilly has picked out a new shirt from the racks of clothing. The shirt is white and is sleeveless. Also, the shirt has diagonal stripes in shine purple and silver. She set the shirt on the back of the high heel shoe chair. Then start looking for a skirt, shorts or a pair of pants that will go with the shirt. Three and half minutes later Lilly is still looking for a skirt, shorts or a pair of pants, when Miley limps into the closest drinking pepto-bismol straight from the bottle.
"You are support to be using crutches!"
"I know that Lilly, but I could not carry the pepto-bismol and use crutch."
"Miley what about this pair of dark-blue capri Jeans, since the capri has zippers on both of the pant legs?"
"No even unzip the right leg is too tight to go over the Breg EPO Post-Op Knee Brace."
"Ok, how about the light blue wide legged bell bottom jean with the purple and silver studs on the legs?"
"That pair of jeans should work."
Lilly set the jean on the high heel shoe chair and then leaves the closet, so Miley can get dress. Once in Miley's bedroom Lilly lie down on the sofa, then start thinking over what her mother told her. Also, Lilly start thinking about what she wants to do, but knows that she does not want to move to Florida.
At five-thirty Lilly heads downstairs and fixes French toast for everyone to have for breakfast. At six o'clock in the morning Miley is now dress as Hannah and she is hopping downstairs on the lilac crutches. She is wearing the outfit Lilly pick out for her. In addition Miley has on silver hoop earrings and is wearing silver tennis shoes on her feet. Lilly looks at her best friends and sees that the jean fit over the EPO Post-Op Knee Brace. Miley (a.k.a. Hannah) walks into the hallway and then heads into the downstairs bathroom. Ten minutes later Miley walks out of the bathroom and walks over to the couch and takes a seat on the couch. Miley set the crutches on the floor in front of the couch. Then Miley puts her legs up on the couch and lean her back against the arm of the couch nearest to the front door. She sees that Lilly is eating breakfast and there is a plate with a large stack of French toast on the center of the table. Miley shuts her eyes to keep from looking at the French toasts on the kitchen table, because the sight of food is making her nauseated.
"I made French toast for everyone to eat for breakfast."
"I do not want any French toast Lilly. I will try to eat something when I get home."
"Ok."
Simultaneously Jackson comes downstairs and walks over to the kitchen table. He takes a seat at the kitchen table, with his back to the kitchen island, the hallway that leads to downstairs bathroom and staircase to the second floor. Jackson puts two slices of French toast onto the plate in front of him and then start to eat.
"The French toast is great Lilly, thank you for making breakfast this morning."
"You are welcome Jackson."
Jackson goes back to eating and a few minutes later Robby comes downstairs and walks into the kitchen and living room area. He is wearing a pair dark-blue jean, a red dress shirt, cowboy boots and a fake mustache. Robby looks around the room and sees Jackson and Lilly eat breakfast and his daughter waiting on the couch and ready to go.
"Miley's we need to get going."
"I need to use the bathroom and then we can go."
"That is fine."
Miley stands up from the couch and grabs the lilac crutches off the floor. Then Miley heads to the downstairs bathroom. Lilly and Jackson continue to eat the French toast. Robby walks over to the front door. Once at the front door he unlocks the door. Then he waits for his daughter to come out of the bathroom.
Nine minutes later Miley (a.k.a. Hannah) and Robby leaves the house and head out to the SUV. Robby open the passengers' door and help his daughter into the SUV. Then he puts the crutches onto the back seat. A couple minutes later Robby is driving toward the L.A. tv studio that the Mack and Mickey Show is at. Hannah (a.k.a. Miley) is thinking I hope that the pepto-bismol starts working, so she can get through the tv show without having to use the bathroom. Also, that I can get through the Mack and Mickey Show without vomit, since I still have the upset stomach. Meanwhile, at the Stewart's house Jackson has gone upstairs and he is in his bedroom to get ready for school and Lilly is cleaning up from breakfast.
At eight o'clock in the morning Hannah Montana is singing the climb to opening the Mack and Mickey show despite still being really nauseated. However, the pepto-bismol seems to be working some because the last bowel movement was before leaving home. Once the song end the audience give Hannah a standing ovation and simultaneously Hannah puts the lilac crutches under her underarm. Hannah hops over to Mack and then Hannah takes a seat on the chair that is on the right-hand side of Mack, because his co-host is not there.
"Love the new song Hannah and Mickey is sorry that she is not able to be here today. However, she and the whole family are sick."
"I hope Mickey and her family get well soon."
"You had knee surgery on your right knee two weeks ago, how is the recovery going?"
"So far the recovery is going great. I saw the orthopedic that did the surgery yesterday afternoon and the doctor unlocked EPO Post-Op Knee Brace. So the knee brace can now bend a full ninety degrees because I start physical therapy Friday."
"Are you able to bend the knee at all Hannah?"
"I have tried bending the knee and it can only bend two degrees. However, the doctor told me that it will take a while to bent the knee a full ninety degrees."
"Are there any major events or concerts during the next couple of months?"
"I am schedule to preform at outdoor and indoor music festival oversea from November 22 through January 25, 2009. Dad's I am I still doing the outdoor and indoor music festivals?"
"Yes Hannah, I heard back from the music festivals and you have to do them, because there no time to find new singers."
"Since my dad does not have a microphone, I will say what he told me. He has heard back from the music festivals and I have to do them, because there no time to find new singers. I will be taking it easy starting in February. However, I will be hitting the record studio to work on the new album, which the song I preform at the start of the show will be on. Also, I will be doing physical therapy to get my right knee ready for next summer world tour that is for the new album, along with home schooling."
"When will the new album be release?"
"The plan is for the album to be release by May 5, 2009."
"Can you perform another song for the new album?"
"Sure, I will sing butterfly fly away."
Hannah stay sitting on the chair and her dad bring the microphone stand with the microphone on it over to Hannah. Robby walks away from his daughter, as Hannah leans toward the microphone, so her mouth is close to the microphone. Then Hannah start singing butterfly fly away to the live studio audience.
Meanwhile, at the Stewart's house, Lilly is home alone because Jackson is at school and she is upstairs in Miley Bedroom. Lilly is getting ready for her doctors' appointment. She has already changes into a pair of black workout pants and a pink tee shirt and is putting on a pair of white socks. A minute later Lilly is putting on her tennis shoes and then Lilly heads into the bathroom to finish getting ready. Five minutes later Lilly has just finish putting her hair into a ponytail, when she hears the door bell ring. Lilly heads into Miley's bedroom and grab her purse off the sofa. Then Lilly runs downstairs. Once downstairs Lilly walks over to the front door and look out of the side window. Lilly sees her dad standing on the front porch and he is early. She notices that he is wearing a pair of black dress pants and a blue dress shirt. Lilly open the front door and let him into the house, Lilly shut the front door behind her father. Then the two of them walk over to the couch and take seats on the couch.
"Lilly's your mother called this morning and told me that she is moving to Florida. In addition your mother told me that you might want to live with me. However, that will not work because I live in a one bedroom apartment and there is not enough room for you to come live there."
"That is fine dad. I will ask Oliver parents if I can live with them. In addition I will let his parents know I am working at Subway. So I will only have to live with them until I have enough money save up from to get a place of my own."
"We should leave and head to your obgyn appointment."
"Ok, dad."
The two of them stand up and walk over to the front door of the house. Lilly dad opens the front door. Then he walks outside first and then Lilly walks outside. She closes and locks the front door. Then the two of them walk of to his car in the driveway. A few minutes later Lilly is sitting on the passengers' seat of her fathers' car and he is driving Lilly to her obgyn appointment.
Fifteen minutes later Lilly is waiting in the waiting room of Dr. Weiss office. At nine o'clock a nurse call Lilly back, Lilly stands up from the chair on which she is sitting.
