The Screen That Separates Us (Markipkier x Tabathie)

Chapter 9

Once I got to my room, Mark had responded.

M: You sent me it last night via Skype. (Again Mark's words will be normal, with a M signifying when it's him talking,and Taba's will be italics.)

Did I really?

M: Yeah! Go check the convo we had before logging off, when my internet was being angsty and made it so I couldn't video call you!

I can't right meow. I'm sick, and it suckkkkksssssss!

M: What's wrong?

I dunno, I just woke up this morning, tried to stand, and felt like I was gonna puke.

M: Did you puke?

Yes, obviously.

I take another sip of water and take a small bite of rice. As I chew and swallow the rice, Mark still hasn't texted back.

I shrug, figuring he's prolly busy. I mean it's about 9:00 there, although I dunno why he would be up at 9:00.

After a few minutes I get a notification that someone texted me.

M: Alright, alright. No need to be sassy. The fans loved the video we did yesterday, would you be up for doing another one sometime today?

Maybe. I mean I may be sick and sound horrible, but as long as I dun puke on camera it'll be alright.

I yawn before going back downstairs to the kitchen and putting my dirty dishes into my sink.

I hear my phone ring from upstairs, and I groan, slowly making my way up.

I get up there quite a while after the ringtone stops. I look at my phone and see that my mom called.

I cough a bit before calling her back, a smile on my face.

"Katrina?" Mom asks.

"Yes, Mom?" I reply with a cough.

"Are you sick?"

"Yes, why?"

"I thought so. Why did you have to move all the way to Maine. It makes it hard for me or your father to make sure you're alright all the time." Mom says with a sigh.

"Because I figured you guys were sick of me, after living with you a couple of years after high school ended." I say with a sneeze.

"Bless you." Mom says and I mumble a thanks. "I want you to get some rest."

"Mommmmmm."

"Katrinaaaaaaa." She mimics my tone.

"I'm already feeling better! I did the normal things like eat rice and drink water slowly." I say, moving my arms even though there wasn't anyone to see it. "I can take care if myself! And I need to go to the grocery store to buy stuff for chicken noodle soup."

Mom sighs and replies with. "Okay. Be safe. I love you. Bye."

"Love you too, bye." I reply and hang up.

After a minute if staring at it, I throw my phone onto my bed and get changed for the day.
