#1 All We Never Said (A Burzek Fanfiction)

Chapter 56

Kim wasn't feeling too good the next morning, so she called out of work.

"Are you sure you don't need anything, hun?" Adam asked, with his hand on the door.

"No, I'm fine."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

He headed out to work, the kids waking up just as he left.

"Mommy, are you okay?" Brayden asked.

"Mommy's fine."

"Are you sure?"

"Go get your sister up so you two can get ready for school."

"I don't want to go to school."

She picked him up. "Why not?"

"I don't like it when you're sick."

"I don't like it either, but mama will be fine. Nadia's coming over to spend the day with me, she can take care of me."

"I still don't want to go."

"Don't forget, it's family fun night at your school."

"I want to stay home and take care of you."

"You can't, buddy. You have to go to school and so does your sister."

As she was making them breakfast, a nauseous feeling came over her and she ran into the bathroom. She quickly put her hair up in a ponytail and then began throwing up. Hannah peeked in the bathroom.

"Mommy, are you okay?"

"Mommy's fine, baby girl." Kim said, washing her mouth out and taking a deep breath.

"I'm gonna call daddy and tell him he needs to come home right this second."

"Daddy's at work."

"He always takes care of you when you're sick."

"It was just something I ate."

"If you say so."

The kids finished their breakfast and grabbed their backpacks. "You guys ready?"

"Yes mommy."

When they got to the school, they headed to their classroom and Kim headed into the office.

"Good morning, Mrs. Ruzek."

"Morning."

"Is there something I can help you with?"

"Hannah has a doctor's appointment at eleven, so I'll be back to get her then. I thought I would notify you and leave a note."

"Will she be returning after the appointment?"

"Yeah, it's just a check up and her shots."

"Alright, I'll let her teacher know."

"Thank you."

"Are you feeling yourself? You look pale."

"I'm fine, something I ate must not have agreed with me."

She swung by the district on her way home, despite Hank's wishes. Platt look stunned to see her when she walked in.

"I thought you called out sick."

"I did, I just came by to bring Adam lunch."

"No offense, but you look like crap. Are you sick or something?"

"I threw up a few times this morning, but that was it."

"Did you eat anything for breakfast?"

"I had a fruit salad and a glass of water. Why?"
