S.O.S. Monsters Within

Entry 3: Stay with me

How about sing for me? all of the sudden, she talked to me.

Shut up would you.

You're making a song right? Why not sing to me what you have written?

Why should I? We both know that you already know how it was supposed to sound like. You're me after all, right? then she chuckled at that.

So you're finally accepting that, huh? she stated smugly.

She keeps on babbling and babbling, until I felt that a nerve just popped.

"Will you shut that trap if I sang to you?" I quickly put my hand on my mouth and groaned, and I could hear her laughing her ass off.

Yeah! Sure! she said after she was able to control her giggles.

I sat up and reach for my guitar. After tuning it, I started strumming the strings. Then all of a sudden, a loud slamming of the door was heard all over the house.

"Garri!" I snapped my head from where the sound came from, and saw Jenn and Sally, their arms wide open. I did my best to scoot over, but sadly, I was still caught in the hug.

"Ohhh, you Garribears! We already told you that you could've told us anything!!!" Jenn said.

"What do you mean? And even though I'm quite enjoying this hug, I feel suffocated, please get off of me." I said while patting my hand on their back.

"We didn't mean to eavesdrop, but, you see, we're really curious on what the fight is about." Jenn started.

"So we followed and, didn't expect things to end like that." Sally said.

"We're supposed to approach you when you walk right out of the door, but you didn't noticed us. So we went to Amber instead..." Jenn said trailing off.

"We saw Amber there, a sobbing mess. We asked her what happened, so she told us about almost everything..."

"She kept saying sorry, Garri... Though I understand that she didn't expect things to end like that, one way or another... She's eager to do something for you..." I both looked at them and sighed. Later on, we heard a knock.

"Princess, you have another visitor..." my mum said, smiling warmly at me. She's wearing her office suit, her hair neatly arranged in a professional way. I almost forgot that she's leaving again.

"Hi..." Amber quietly said, with a unassured smile. I smiled back, and they both came inside my room. She sat beside me and felt my forehead as she felt her own.

"Still not falling down..." she said as she frown.

"I'll be fine." I told her. She gave me a kiss on my crown and smiled.

"I know you would be. But you can't blame me if I worry for my princess, right?" I just rolled my eyes. She stood up and gave my friends their fair share of kiss on their crowns.

"There's still some cupcakes on the fridge, and I just made some cookies earlier. I'm sorry if I can't asses you, I really have to go." she said.

"It's alright, mum. I'll take care of them." I said.

"Yes, Ma'am Sophie, we'll take care of Garri." Jenn said.

"Okay. I trust you ladies my lovely princess, alright? And princess, be good." I nodded and then she left, leaving a flying kiss, with her car.

There were silence, but then remembered something that's supposed to be really important.

"Mum!!! You forgot about the bills!" I shouted as I reached the sidewalk. Though, too late, she's already too far.

I ran as fast as my little feet could. I was able to pass by my new nanny, and I stopped when I've reached the side walk.

"Mum!!!! Pwease! Down't lweave.....!!"

I came back from my trance when I felt something hit my head gently. I quickly turned around, a reason for me to feel dizzy and fall down. Good thing, the one who smacked my head was able to catch me.

"Stop running around while you yourself runs a fever." Thristan told me as he carry me back in the house.

"It's not funny, Thris. The bills, our expenses." I told him.

"Mom left me incharge."

"What!?" he just rolled his eyes. We soon enter my room, where my friends waits for me.

"Please hold the dragon off for me. I have some errands to do." He said as he tuck me off to bed. The three of them nodded, and at that, my brother left.

"Your brother is really a catch..." Sally sighed dreamily, and I'm quite shock that Amber and Sally agreed.

"You've got to be kidding me..." I said as I shake my head. "He's grumpy, a tease, and meany."

"No! Your brother is charming, protective, and most of all, attractive." Sally said with a goofy smile. I just let them think what they want to think, as I burrow myself with blankets.

"Anyway, Garri. We need to do some sharing! Talking!" Sally said.

"And sleep ovahssss!!!!" Jenn happily said.

"Oh dear...." I groaned and I felt them tug the blankets off me.

"No. I'M not talking...!" I said.

"But--!"

"No! Its fine." Amber cut off Jenn, and I let a sigh out. The two contemplated it for a while.

"Okay, fine. But, we still want the sleep over." Sally said, pouting.

"If you can't see, I'm sick."

"We could see that! So we'll nurse you till you're fine and sick free again!" Sally happily said.

So, at the end, they play nurse and what nots, with me being a real patient.

When they're finally out of gas, they slept in my room. Sally and Jenn is on my make-shift fort on my mezzanine, while Amber's sleeping on the mini sofa.

"Mum..."
