infinity war

chapter 5

MRS. SINCLAIR was washing the dishes when she noticed how quiet her home was. Usually, the woman would hear the TV series, FRIENDS, theme song blasting in her daughter's room. "Honey?" the woman called, yelling for her daughter. No response. "Olivia!" she yelled, getting red.

"Olivia Belle Amber Sinclair!" Mrs. Sinclair snapped. Then, she heard footsteps. Walking out of her daughter's room was an exhausted Olivia. She had dark eye bags, red eyes and a runny nose. "Oh dear, Olivia, honey, what's wrong?" Mrs. Sinclair asked gently, softening up after seeing Olivia's terrible condition.

"Mum, I'm-" Olivia got cut off by her own sneeze. "Sick." Mrs. Sinclair became worried and told her daughter to rest. Then, the woman was confused. Olivia's immune system was strong. She was rarely sick. Last time she had a fever was three years ago. "Olivia would only be like this if she doesn't sleep for a few days straight," Mrs. Sinclair thought.

OLIVIA'S POV

I woke up at around 12 p.m. feeling shitty. I had used tissues scattered around on my carpeted floor. "For fuck's sake," I cursed. Then, I heard my mother yell, "Olivia Belle Amber Sinclair!" Great, I already feel like shit and I'm going to the start the day shitty. I dragged myself out of my room to see what my mother was so angry about. "Oh dear, Olivia, honey, what's wrong?" Mum asked, much softer and nicer.

"Mum, I'm-" *sneeze* "Sick." God, I hated the feeling of being sick. "Alright, baby, go ahead and rest. I'll make some soup for you, okay?" Mum said, rubbing my back. I nodded and walked to my room. Ding. My phone rang. I was in my room and saw that David had texted me.

I decided to reply. I mean, I had nothing else to do.

...

Three dots. David was typing. I waited anxiously for his reply. Two minutes had passed and the three dots were still there. Oh god, did I say something wrong? Then, my phone began vibrating.

is calling

➡️ slide to accept

I accepted David's call. Oh god, I probably sound terrible. Fuck, I'm nervous.

"Hey Olivia."

"Hi David."

"So, you're sick?"

"Yeah, it sucks. This is the first flu I've had in three years."

"Three years? Bitch, how!?"

"Hehe, secrets, Davey. Anyway, I need to sleep more. I'll talk to you soon. Bye David."

"Alright. Get well soon, Liv. Bye."

I quickly ended the call. Phew, that's the shortest call ever. I feel bad for rushing him though. David probably thinks I'm an asshole now. Shit, shit, shit. Ugh, why am I freaking out over a guy I've known for three weeks! Correction: a cute guy. Actually, a cute, funny, nice and talented guy. Damn, I have a crush on David.

DAVID'S POV

I felt bad for Olivia. I bet she got sick from staying up to talk to me. I really wanna go fo her house and surprise her but I don't know where she lives! Man, it is difficult to surprise Olivia. Then, I got an idea.
