It was Monday and  I got up from my bed, had breakfast and left for college. We had class in lecture hall today. I reached there and found almost everyone came except for Emy, I didn't see her. There was 5 minutes left for lecture to start and there was no sign of Emy. I was worried what happened to her that night. I wanted to help her. 

Our lecture got over and I had physics in next class. I texted Emy.

"Hey Emy, are you alright.. why didn't you come today?" -Robert

"I hope you are fine Emy"-Robert

After texting her I went for my next class. Me and Luke went to have coffee during break. "Bro you seem to be worried, what happened?" asked Luke. I told everything to my best friend what happened that night and that Emilie didn't reply my texts. "Bro, don't worry she will be fine maybe she needs some space from everyone right now" said Luke. "I hope so you are right, well if she doesn't reply me till tomorrow I'm gonna go meet her" I said. "As you say bro." Luke comforted me. After break, we headed for our next class.

Our classes got over and I dropped Luke to his place and made my way to home.

My mom came early home today, she said she wasn't feeling feverish. So I took care of my mom and made us some dinner for tonight. I washed some dishes, completed my class work and headed for bed. I was going to sleep when I get a call from dad. 

"Hello son, how are you?" -Dad

"I'm fine dad and how are you?." -Robert

"I'm fine son, I just finished talking with your mom she said she is sick."-Dad

"Yeah dad, I cooked dinner for us and washed the dishes." -Robert

"I know son, I'm proud of you that you are taking care of your mom." -Dad

"Not a problem dad you both are my world how can I not do this small things." -Robert

"Of course son you are my everything.. well I will leaving for LA tomorrow I will reach the day after tomorrow." -Dad

"Sure dad I'll be waiting for you." -Robert

"Okay son, Goodnight." -Dad

"Goodnight dad". -Robert

I checked my phone was again to see whether there was any message from Emilie but there were none. I decided of calling her, but no one picked it up. After trying for 5 times. Someone picked up. 

"Hello Emi, are you fine?"-Robert

"Hey Robert its Emilie's mom....I'm sorry Emy was sick since two days so she couldn't pick up your call." -Mrs.Burke

"That's okay Mrs.Burke I just wanted to check up on Emy?" -Robert

"Do you mind if I pay a visit tomorrow?" -Robert

"Yes you can Robert , she's feeling a little better you can come." -Mrs.Burke

"Thank you Mrs Burke." -Robert

"Welcome and goodnight Robert." -Mrs.Burke

"Goodnight Mrs Burke". -Robert

Before sleeping I checked up on my mom gave her some medicines and went to sleep. The next day I got up early to make breakfast for us. Mom said she was feeling better than yesterday so she told me to not wash the dishes since she can do it herself. I got ready and went to pick up Luke.
