The new girl nextdoor

chapter 43

Tara's POV

I walked to the nearest corner store and brought some peppermint and ginger tea to help with nausea and clams the stomach along with many different soups and white toast bread to help with diarrhea I raced back to the house and walked into the kitchen and boiled the jug as I put the teabag into the tea pot and put the toast into the toaster I then grabbed a bowl and emptied the soup contents into the bowl,once the water was boiled I poured the water into the teapot and then into the bowl I waited a few moments before mixing the soup contents together with the hot water. Once I had done making everything I put it all on a tray and cairred it up to marks room I opened the door and saw mark sleeping soundly I quietly crept over to the bedside cabinet and placed the tray on top of it I was about to leave the room when mark called out "don't leave me" I ran back to Mark's side and grabbed his hand "never" he smiled weakly at me "here drink this" I poured mark a mug of peppermint tea and then handing it to him, he sat up and took a sip before drinking some more "theirs more tea and theirs soup and toast make sure you eat it" I told him "thank you" he leaned foward and kissed my cheek "anything for you" I told him.

I was awaken a few hours later by Thomas who had come into the room to check on Mark I was seated in the chair next to the bed I straightened myself upright in the chair and heard my spine cracking "ooh that didn't sound good" Thomas told me "didn't feel good either" I groaned "are you alright?" Thomas raised an eyebrow at me I just nodded my head in response, I got up from the chair and appoarched marks sleeping body I placed a hand on his forehead and felt his head "his fever has gone up, can you please get me a damp face cloth?" I asked Thomas "sure thing" Thomas smiled at me before walking out of the room. Thomas returned moments later with a face cloth in hand "thank you thomas" I said as he handed me the damp face cloth I then gently dabbed the cloth on Mark's forehead "are you hungry?" Thomas asked me I shook my head "no thanks I'll stay here with mark" Thomas gave me a concered look "you need to eat Tara" I shook my head "I'm okay thomas" I smiled at him "okay then" and with that Thomas walked out of the room, I stayed by marks side all night watching over him and treating his fever I eventually drifted off to sleep.
