It was a Tuesday and Catarina was feeling shitty.

When she woke up to go to work she instantly felt sick, running to her bathroom and emptying her stomach, which was already pretty much empty since she still hadn't had her breakfast.

When she felt it was safe to leave the bedroom she decided to go to bed again, taking her phone texting her students, saying the class total was canceled because she wasn't feeling well.

If Jesse wasn't in San Fransisco she could go to the studio with Catarina and give her a hand there, but unfortunately, she was still there, so it was only her and Cauã today.

Catarina decided to go to the couch and turn the tv on while Cauã was in his room, playing with her phone. She placed a heating pad on her lower stomach and took her temperature before catching up on a TV show she hadn't watched in a week.

Even Cauã decided to leave him room, giving Catarina's phone back and sitting on the rug in front of the couch, playing with his legos.

When Catarina was almost done with season 3, she heard the bell rang and immediately frowned, no one was supposed to be here today, Jesse wasn't even in town!

She put the heating pad in some place on the couch thighed the robe against her body as she slowly made her way to the door. The bell rang a second time, as if the person behind it was impatient she opened the door.

"Hello wh–."

"Catarina, are you ok?!" asked a very worried Harry.

Harry.

At the door.

At her door.

"I– Yes, I am, what are you doing here?" asked Catarina, letting him in. "Did something happen?"

"You sent me a message telling me you were feeling bad, almost going to the hospital!" said Harry, he sure looked like he left his house in a hurry, he was wearing sweatpants and a very old t-shirt, was he wearing unmatched sh–.

"Catarina damn it! Can you answer me?" The man in front of her looked like he was about to have a stroke, and she was as well, what was happening?

"Ok, first thing: don't scream, my head is killing me, second, I did not send you any messages, I have no idea what you are talking about."

"Look at this then," he pulled his phone out of his pocket, showing the big message she sent saying everything Harry informed.

Her mind went straight to the only person that could have done that. Turning around, looking at the boy still sitting on the rug, face screaming 'guilty'.

"Cauã, why did you text, Harry? You know lying is bad." She asked sternly, he had no reason to do that!

She went in his direction, kneeling in front of him, trying to be the same height as him. Harry sat on the couch just listening to the conversation, trying to calm his nerves down.

"I didn't lie, mom! You told me to call auntie if we ever have an emergency, but she's not here so I thought I would text Harry instead. I saw the contact with his name the other day when I was playing Roblox," The boy was rambling, talking so fast she almost couldn't understand. "Don't be mad, mommy."

"Cauã, baby, I'm fine, I'm just a little sick, I won't go to the hospital, you don't need to worry about me," Catarina wrapped her arms around her son, hugging him. "You are the kid here, I am the one who takes care of you."

"How did you even get all the words right, buddy?" asked Harry, looking more tranquil now that he realized she wasn't dead.

"I used the voice speech," explained the boy, not looking at Harry's face. " I didn't know how to spell hospital and infection."
