That Never Happened

Part 10: Sick Day

Carina's POV:

I woke up in the same position I fell asleep in, with Hazel laying on top of me her head right above my boobs.  I slowly try and roll her off of me but I see her start to wiggle around. 

"How did you sleep bambina?"  I asked.  "Good, you comfortable."  Hazel says.  "That's good, do you feel okay?"  "Yeah I feel fine."  She says.  I feel her head and she doesn't feel hot anymore. 

We go into the kitchen to see that Maya had already made breakfast.  "Aww thank you bella."  I say to Maya.  "Of course, how did you guys sleep?"  She asks. "We slept good, didn't we bambina?"  I look at Hazel and she nods. 

"I'm glad."  "How did you sleep?"  I ask.  "I slept okay."  She says.  "Just okay?"  I ask concerned.  "Yeah I can't sleep as good when you're not in bed with me."  She says.  "I'm sorry bambina."  "It's okay."  She says smiling.

"How are you feeling Hazel?"  Maya asks.  "I feel fine."  She says.  "Okay well enough to go to school?"  Maya asks.  "Yeah I go to school."  Hazel says.  "Her fever has gone down."  I tell Maya. 

We eat breakfast then we get ready.  "Who taking to school?"  Hazel asks while I'm brushing her hair.  "Mama's taking you to school today."  I say.  "Okay."  She says. 

I finish doing her hair and put her in the car to head to school.  "Mama I stay with you."  Hazel says while walking to her class.  "You have to go to school then you can come visit mama at work."  I say hoping she'd take that answer. 

"No mama stay with you."  She says.  "Bambina please, look at me, good you will see mama so soon it'll feel like no time has passed."  I say.  "Okay."  She says sadly. 

We get to her class and I drop her off.  I head to work knowing that I have a busy schedule today.  First I had a scheduled c-section, then I got paged to the pit for a consult, after that I had two delivery's. 

I was at lunch when I got paged for an emergency c-section, as I was running towards the room my phone rang again but this time it was Hazel's school.  I really wanted to pick it up but knew if I did the mom would be dead by the time I got there, so I ignored it.

Hazel's POV:

I really didn't want mama to leave me, she makes me feel safe and comfortable.  "Okay class we're going to be learning some math."  Ms. Wilson says. 

She hands out a peace of paper and tells us to get out a pencil.  Then she starts teaching us how to do what's on the paper.  After math we have reading time where we sit on the floor and Ms. Wilson reads a book to us.  

"Okay kids it's lunch time."  Ms. Wilson says.  We all go to lunch and I sit by Avery and Mayson.  "Hazel are you going to eat?" Mayson asks.  "No not hungry."  I say.  "Why?"  Avery asks.  "My tummy hurts."  I say.  "Okay I'm sorry."  Mayson says.  "It's okay." 

I sit there feeling gross just wanting to be with my mommy and mama.  Mayson and Avery finish lunch, we go to recess and play house.  Avery is the child and Mayson and I are the moms. 

The bell rings and that's our sign to line up to go inside.  We go back inside and I see Max standing by my desk.  "Move please."  I say to Max.  "No, why were you playing two moms when playing house?"  He asked. 

"Because we were."  I say.  "No one can have two moms."  He tells me.  "I have two moms."  I say.  "They're not your real moms."  He says trying to annoy me.  "Yes they are!"  I say feeling my stomach start to get upset. 

Ms. Wilson comes over to us and breaks up our little argument.  "Okay everybody lets be nice."  She says.  "He said my moms not my real moms."  I say feeling my stomach getting more and more upset.  "No I did not."  Max says.  "Yes you did."
