Sick

Day 6

- Sanji is sick. - Zoro finished drinking the beer straight from the bottle, burped and said: - And what do I have to do with it, Usopp?

- Rude. He threw up on your swords! - Usopp shrugged.

- On my daughters?! - Zoro ran in search of his swords, imagining how they would be now. He needed to clean them. He was going to put Sanji to clean them, but he was incapacitated at that moment, and that's when he assimilated what Usopp had informed him: Sanji was sick.

- Who will cook? - He thought aloud thinking he was alone.
- Me. - He heard a female voice soon turning to see who it was. A woman with straight, long hair, half purple and half pink, was smiling at him. - I'm Marina. Sanji's friend. It's a pleasure to meet you, Zoro. - She extended her hand to Zoro who took a while to understand what was going on on that ship. And how she knew him, but shook her head ignoring the thoughts and shook the woman's hand.

- H-how do you know my name? - Asked the confused man. - Sanji spoke a lot about you, and by your hair, I think it's Roronoa Zoro, not that I didn't already know who you are. The famous former pirate hunter. Now he's a pirate. - She stated the obvious.

- Ironic, don't you think? - Zoro gave a forced smile. He wasn't much for smiling, but he would try to be friendly.

- Yeah... Marina tucked a lock of hair behind her ear.

- But tell me what you came here for.

Zoro tried to show indifference, but the truth is that he was worried about a friend of Sanji's - from a long time ago - showing up there. And how convenient they were on the island where Marina lives. Why has Sanji been to this island before? There are so many questions that he has no right to answer, but he would like to know them all.

- Yesterday Sanji went to my family's restaurant, and he didn't seem well, I said he would get sick, he would be worse than he already was if he went home at that time because it would rain. He didn't listen to me and a little while later it started to rain. But he said he didn't want to worry anyone on the ship. And he didn't want to give work for you. In the morning, the restaurant's Den Den Mushi played, and he informed me that he had become ill, and that he should listen to me because I'm always right.

- Wait, what? He said that? He was even drunk?

- Perhaps. Anyway, he had already asked me to say goodbye before you left, and since I knew he wouldn't be so well today before he even warned me, I came to help in the kitchen. I already spoke to the captain earlier. - She gave a little smile.

Marina did what she said she would do, she made great food, after all she also worked in the family restaurant, all the crew praised the woman's food. Even though she had made a simple meal because it would need to be quick since everyone was already hungry, it was delicious. Luffy couldn't stop praising her.

- Join us, when Sanji can't cook, you can cook! - He screamed.

- I appreciate the invitation, Captain. But I'm not a pirate, I love the restaurant.

- Fine! But if you want, we'll be here. Waiting for you! - Everyone at the table laughed.

Zoro was the first to finish eating and he remembered that he hadn't cleaned his precious swords, he was one step away from believing that Sanji had done that on purpose. But their swords weren't in the proper place so he knew the blond just didn't feel right.

The truth is that Sanji felt very bad for having, in his conception, "spoiled." Zoro's swords and would even clean them if he could, but he needed Usopp's help to get to his own room. He was very weak, he didn't want to eat anything, and he had a high fever.
