First it started as a cough then turned into wheezing. Delilah some how passed her sickness to Lauren. But unlike Delilah she only has a cold and a stuffy nose.
"Princess, go with Mary so she can help you with your jacket" I tell her as I took her off the bed
Delilah nods leaving the room.
"Papa?" Lauren sneezes grabbing my shirt
"Yes Love" I ask removing myself from her hold, putting her jacket on her. She zipped it up as I placed her shoes in front of her
"Where are you taking us?" She sneezes again
"To see a doctor, come on" I held my hand out to her as I turn the lights off. She takes my hand in hers.
"Adoro che ti interessi a noi" She sniffles
(I love that you care about us)"Isn't that my job, to care for my family?" I kissed her head as we made our way to the elevator.
Delilah runs to us holding her arms out. Lauren picks her up as she coughs hardly. Going into the elevator I sigh placing a hand on Lauren's right shoulder.
It pains me to see them like this.
"Hurt" Delilah whimpers touching her throat coughing harder than before
"Want something to drink?" Lauren asks as we exit the elevator
Delilah nods "juice"
Alessandro comes out the kitchen covering his face handing me two bottles of apple juice and a water bottle.
"Geovani get the lysol" Alex mumbles under his shirt
"I hate you" I roll my eyes taking the drinks from him
Remo came into sight as the girls and I made our way to my white SUV.
"Remo would you mind driving us to the hospital?" I ask when Delilah wouldn't let Lauren seat her in her car seat, she cried for me to hold her.
The three of us got into the backseat as Remo got in the drivers seat.
"Mi sento male" Delilah whispers
(feel sick)Alessandro was serious about teaching her Italian
"I know princess, I'm trying to fix that problem now" I kiss her forehead as she lays against my chest
"Remo can you the heat on" Lauren asks leaning against me shivering, I laid a hand on her forehead
"Babe, how are you cold when your burning up?"
"I don't know" she snuggles into my side closing her eyes

Lauren and Delilah went to different rooms to get check out. I've been bouncing back and forth from both rooms checking on them every ten minutes.
I stayed with Delilah for the most part but got worried about Lauren so I would leave when a nurse came in.
"Bae just stay with Delilah, I'm okay" Lauren sneezes
"No you're not" I sigh running a hand through my hair
"Lauren?" we both look at a short female nurse in purple grubs "you don't remember me do you?"
"Dave East girlfriend, Aaliyah grace?" Lauren asks
"Yes" she smiles then checks her Vidal's "how are you feeling?"
"Like shit" she coughs
"I'll be back, I'm going to check on Delilah" I kiss her head leaving
"Sir, I can bring her in here if you'd like. You could be with them both instead of leaving one to be with the other" the nurse says following me
