*************************

When I woke up, I felt really sick. I felt like I could throw up at any second. Caleb had already left the room and I didn't know what to do.

I got out of bed and ran to the bathroom. I just sat there, until finally, I threw up. After that, I felt better, but knew that I would get sick again. I was thinking all of this through, when the door got pushed open.

"Are you okay?" Caleb said very loudly. I shook my head no. He immediately knew that I wasn't feeling good. "Grandma! Cassy and I are taking your car to go to the hospital!" Caleb ran over to me and picked me up, carrying me like a baby. He slowly layed me in the back seat of the car and then hopped into the driver's seat. He sped onto the road.

Once we reached the hospital, Caleb picked me up again and carried me into the emergency room. I thought this was a little over the top. So I got sick? I would be fine in a day or two.

Caleb quickly filled out a few forms and handed them to a nurse.

Within one hour, we were back in a small room. A doctor walked in and looked at me. He checked my pulse, temperature, and blood pressure befor telling us that it was just the flu and we had nothing to worry about. "She will be fine in a few days," he assured us, "go to any pharmacy and buy these." He showed us a small, empty bottle.

Caleb rushed out of the hospital. He didn't carry me this time, but he made sure I was okay with every step I took.

This time, I sat in the passenger seat. Caleb drove to the closest WalMart and parked as close as he could to the main doors. He followed me into the crowded store.

We walked back to all of the medications and he told me to wait by the wall while he found the right medicine for me. I stood by the wall, and after a few minutes, I got bored. I turned around and saw a wall full of 'Have You Seen Me?' papers. I scanned the pages, feeling sorry for all of the kids and their families.

I stopped and stared when I saw a face that looked very familiar. She looked just like me, but didn't feel like me. The picture was my school picture from last year. I looked so young and happy. It showed all of my information. My height, weight, age, what I was last seen wearing, and when I was last seen.

At that moment, I couldn't help but think of my mom. I wondered if she was happy or sad about me being gone. I wondered if she was at all worried about me.

Just then, Caleb walked over with the perscription in his hands. We went to buy the bottle, and quickly left the store. I could tell that Caleb saw that I was worried. I was really thankful that he didn't ask anything about it, I didn't want to talk.

When we arrived at Grandma's house, I took my medication, and then went into the guest room. I slipped under the blankets on the bed and took a very long nap.
