A/N Respect my vision for my Autumn story. Her eyes are far less watery and her nose is less stuffy now. Autumn's tea drinking's plot convenience related, as it's rooted in her being half-British.
Autumn woke Thursday to Day 6 of her cold. I feel less stuffy today, she thought, but I've still got to sneeze. ACHOO! she sneezed. She took a tissue from her box, gently wiped her watery, those less so than before, eyes, flipped the tissue over, then wiped and blew her nose, finishing with a final wipe.
Mummy gave Autumn warm tea and toast for breakfast, then had Autumn take her anti-inflammatory and mucus-loosening meds. Autumn got ready for school and got on the bus, flowered hanky in her pocket and tissue box in her backpack. After she got on the bus, she took her tissues out of her backpack. ACHOO! She took a tissue from her box, wiped her slightly watery eyes gently, then flipped her tissue over, wiped and blew her nose, finishing with a final wipe. When the bus arrived at school, she put her tissue box in her backpack and got off the bus.
Autumn went to her locker to put her things away if she didn't need them now and the mean girls were there. They whispered, pointed and laughed at her. Autumn froze and then began crying. She pulled out her hanky and dried her tears. After she wiped her tears and blew her nose, she put things she didn't need in her locker and took her tissue box out of her bag. She was missing Sawyer, but knew her friend was blowing her nose almost constantly, because of how hard colds hit her.
Autumn went through her day, tending to her eyes and nose as needed with her tissues and sneezing ACHOO!, though less often than other days. Her mind replayed the mean words of the in-crowd on the way home.
Autumn got off the bus at home and went inside with her eyes tearing up. Aika was walking in the kitchen, with the aid of her toy and sniffling, her nose dripping and full of thick mucus. Mummy lay Aika on her back gave Aika saline nose drops, then suctioned and wiped her nose with Kleenex. Autumn pressed her own tissue to her eyes, catching her tears as she cried.
Autumn took her tissue box to her room, wiping tears and blowing her nose. She started at her Thomas toy, daydreaming of Sodor.
A/N Incomplete, so more coming.
