Something Extraordinary

Chapter 22

This turned out to be a long chapter .. oops🤷🏻‍♀️

The next morning, when Cassandra alarm went off, she walked bitterly and frustrated into the bathroom and got ready, after that she felt a little better. She again put money and the keys to her apartment to Rachel's note. For a moment, she just stood there and noticed and acknowledged Rachel's beauty. She had to give her a kiss on the forehead, forced herself to leave the view and walked to the guest room. Daria was still asleep and obviously fell asleep, while watching TV, because it was still on, turned it off and put her note on the nightstand. She prepared the coffee machine for the girls and went to work. Rachel heard Cassandra leave; she woke up when Cassandra's alarm went off and grabbed her pillow. She inhaled the scent before she got up and walked into the bathroom. Rachel had planned to go to the doctor today. So she got ready in the bathroom, put some casual clothes on and was about to leave the bedroom when she saw Cassandra's note.

-Good morning Precious,

I had to go to work, but I prepared coffee for you. Daria is still there and I told her to behave, so if you two want to spent some time together, I put some cash on the table.

I know I'll miss you today.

I love you. C.

Rachel loved that Cassandra always left a note, when she went to work; it made her smile. She walked into the kitchen and finished the coffee. Evidently, it was a little harder for Rachel to get two coffee mugs out of the wall cupboard, because she struggled a little with keeping the balance.

"May I help?"

"Oh, Daria, good morning."

"You too." She walked over to Rachel and got the mugs. "Listen, I'm sorry for last night-"

"It's okay, I mean it wasn't the nicest evening, but you're siblings. Aren't you supposed to fight?" They both chuckled a bit and Daria filled the cups with coffee.

"Milk or sugar?"

"No, thanks." Rachel enjoyed her coffee. "I was wondering, what are you doing today?"

"Well, I skip school and I should probably talk to Cassie. Why do you ask?"

"I need to go to the doctor and then I wanted to go shopping a little."

"And you sure you want my company?"

"I wouldn't have asked otherwise." Rachel smiled nicely.

"Okay, let me clean up a little and we can go." They sat there for a few minutes in silence and finished their coffee, before Daria stood up. While she walked back to the guest room, with a big smile on her face, Rachel put their mugs into the sink and walked through the apartment to get her things together. About five minutes later Daria stood next to Rachel and watched her curiously.

"What're you doing?"

"Well-" Rachel was on the floor, right in front of the couch. "I can't find my phone."

"I see." Daria lay next to Rachel and helped her to look for it. "Well, it's not down here." Rachel smiled lightly and sat up, as it happens, just when Daria did and they bumped their heads together. "Ah."

"Ouch." Both rubbed their heads a little. "I'm sorry-"

"No, no, it was my fault."

"I got an idea, I just call you and, yea well, we'll know where your phone is."

"Okay." After a few moments they heard Rachel's phone, it was close and Rachel checked the couch a second time, to find it between the cushions. "Thanks." It looked funny when Rachel tried to get up again, because she really struggled with her crutches, until Daria offered her help. Rachel's phone rang again, she gave Daria a quizzing look.
