You know how everybody's got their thing, like something they're really good at....
Well sleeping is my thing!
I was sleeping fine till all of a sudden my stomach felt queasy and before I knew it I was heading straight for the bathroom door, and puking my guts out in the toilet.
My hair thankfully was still in a neat tight bun, so I didn't have to worry about it coming down on my face.
My month felt dry as ever and I felt so nauseous. Assuming that it was because I ate too much of Gina's food I rinsed my mouth and walked to the bedside table where the phone was left for me.
Under the phone were a list of names with their numbers at the side. Half of them were not known to me.
So I resumed by calling Diego's number, 5. It rang for about a minute before he picked up.
"Hey, It's me April" I spoke up.
"Oh hey! You're up earlier than I expected" he spoke up.
"Yeah, umm is Samantha around?" I asked.
"Yea, you want to talk to her?" he asked.
"Actually I was wondering if the two of you could come over to my room and could you ask her to please get me a change if she doesn't mind, I stained my blouse" I asked innocently.
"Period?" he asked chuckling.
"No actually, though I am late. But just do what I told you please" I asked hopelessly.
"Sure thing. We'll be there in ten" he promised.
"Thanks" I said and cut the call.
As I put the phone down I glanced at my watch only to see that I hardly slept for three hours. It was two sharp, I had dozed off at about eleven in the morning.
I unlocked the bedroom door, and then walked back to the bed just as I was about to lay a foot on the bed my stomach cramped up again and I was caught in the sane insane routine as before.
Strands of my hair had come down and I'm sure I looked like a mess, puking whilst clutching the toilet seat like my left depended on it.
"April!" I heard Samantha call out and my room door unlock, unable to reply I continued to wretch.
"Where are you?" Diego's voice called out.
"In here!" Samantha shouted as she opened the bathroom door and came running to me and pulled out my hair from the way.
"Shit!" Diego said as he entered the bathroom.
After I stopped, I blinked a couple of times then I stood up with Samantha's help.
"Here have some" Diego said passing me a bottle of water.
I gulped down the entire bottle and I rubbed my eyes. This puking hadn't started today to be honest. Yesterday morning before the party I had thrown up too. But obviously I didn't think much of it other than a bad meal.
"April are you okay?" Diego asked after I washed my face.
"I'm fine, don't worry about me" I said a little dizzy.
