'As humans, we ruin everything we touch including each other'

"What did you just say to me?"

The snarl echoes through the beautiful garden of the Mikaelson estate. Causing a disruptive atmosphere to the mellow and carefree flowers that range from blue to a bright pink coloring. Such a peaceful aura this garden gives off however I can't seem to gain any of that peace at the moment. It doesn't soak into my skin and causes me to sit and breathe deeply like it would do to others. Instead, I'm on edge, with the way I woke up in Kol's embrace this morning, I should feel amazing right? Not when I feel like I have every living germ known to man crawling through my body, eating out my insides and making me feel like utter shit.

Liquid drains down the back of my throat and it burns like I rubbed it raw with sandpaper. My voice annoyingly going in and out of a croak from having to clear my throat like an old person every half an hour. Don't even get me started on the wet cough that shakes my whole body, my eyes glazing over as the cough tears through my already damaged throat.

Aches and pains radiate all through my body, starting from the tips of my toes and going around to my pounding head. I have a coldness to my skin that makes me feel hot inside and having the indescribable feeling of wanting absolutely nothing to touch me. Not even my own clothing.

"You're going to make me say it all again?" the doppelganger's voice seethes through the other end of the phone like a snake.

My eyes narrow even though she can't see me. "I had to save my ass and my family's days ago from their genocidal mother. Yesterday, Elijah made us go and make peace with that merry saint waste of space you told me about. Today, I woke up feeling like utter and complete shit, having every germ eat away at me because I'm not immune to that type of stuff anymore. So yes, Katherine, I'm going to have you say it again because It's been a crappy start and I need some good fucking news!"

My booming voice scare away some crows in the surrounding willow trees beside the Mikaelson house. I pace through the garden with a mean sneer on my face, resisting the urge to cough into my elbow.

I can almost hear Katherine's eye roll "It's called a cold, Calla. From what Evelyn tells me, you'll live from it so stop being so dramatic." she snaps.

White hot anger spreads through my weak body and just makes the aches and pains even worse to deal with. My body starts to shake and I open my mouth to scream at her again, but before a word comes out a sneeze surprises me.

"Apparently you have allergies now too." Katherine adds upon hearing it and I pause my pacing to get over the weird sensation it gave me. "It's a big day for you, isn't it?"

My teeth clench together "Shut up. Just shut up" I growl through the phone.

I haven't had a cold since I was human, a goddamn millennium ago. I honestly feel like I could drop dead at any second now. Were colds this bad during ancient times because I honestly can't even remember when I had my last cold.
