I sit in the lab as a mild headache runs through my head. I've only been home for a day; in case you are wondering, my surgery was last Saturday, and now it's Friday. The pain meds only do so much before I feel like I need to down some more. I can't afford to sleep more as Dr. Pillow asked me since I'm so close to hacking into Lilia's old phone to find out who is the mystery number.
I groan as the group walks through from their training session with Hank, "Hey, Dr. Kellie what are you doing?" Ryan asked as he sits next to me at the large table. "Trying to track this number without being tracked me." Ryan nods as Violet sits next to him as everyone has done a lot to keep me in eyesight. Even the children of the 3rd creation are keeping me close, when I go to sleep, Darek has asked that I sleep with one of the kids. It's kind of annoying, but I know they all care about me more than I know.
Sighing heavily, Lilia stops to look at me, "Are you feeling okay?" I rub my head, "No not really, my head is killing me." Lilia smiled, "Remember, Dr. Pillow, said it'll be a couple of weeks before its over, but you can take pain relief now, it's 2 o'clock." Oh, thank heavens, I pull the bottle out of my pocket and pile out two. "One, the doctor said one, Grace." Darek said as he swiped the other pill, I groan, "Please let me take two." Darek crossed his arms, "Grace, I know you've read the side effects." Right anymore than one and I'll be passed out for days and might not wake back up.
I pop the pill in my mouth and take it with some coffee. I feel the pill drop in my stomach like a rock. "Let's take a break." Heath coming from nowhere and removing the phone from my hand. They all push my chair down the hall until we were in the green hall where we all sat around the table the children had some game out. Violet had no problem setting everyone in, but everyone doesn't understand that I want to work.
We've been playing games for over an hour I don't even think they realized that I fell asleep. I sigh, "Oh good you're up." Dr. Icy was sitting next to me, "You fell asleep a while ago, and everyone packed up and left, Darek stayed with the kids and to my surprise I found you sleeping." She smiled at me, that face said it all, you're doing what the doctor wants you to do. I grab my phone and check the messages from the six.
My head pounds when an unknown number appears on the screen. Dr. Icy had gone over to her daughter while I read the text. 'Dr. Grace Kellie, you don't know me, but I know you and would like to offer my assistance in helping you cure your headaches. Let's meet tomorrow afternoon around 3o'clock? Would that be a good time for you?' this is quite an alarming text, but I'll do anything to get rid of these headaches. I ask the mystery person where they replied quicker than I thought they would. 'We can meet in the parking lot of Galaxy Burgers; I'll be under the rocket-ship sign.' I agree and set my phone down.
The only concern now is how to get past the others. I can hardly use the restroom without someone joining me. Sighing I walk out of the lunchroom, I head for my room trying to figure out a plan to keep everyone away from me tomorrow since is Saturday and the six like to hang around for the kids. My head slowly begins to ache again; I can't sleep all day I'll get nothing done.
Darek is walking past my room, "Oh good, are you about ready for the weekend?" Right, Darek is dead set on giving the boys a stronger sense of family, so that they don't screw up later in life. I shrug, "I don't really know if I packed or not." My memory is still fuzzy, Darek seems excepting enough, "Come on, I'll help you get your things together." This is good, the boys live right now the road from it, I can play it off as me just going for a quick snack.
I walk into my room as Darek found my suitcase from last week, I sit down and watch him open my closet, "Alright what do you want to wear? It'll be chilly this weekend so something warm." I feel so out of it, usually, I would be turning bright red with the fact that he's in my messy and disgusting room, but the girls cleaned it along with the boys to save my face. I stand up and dig through my closet to help Darek find something in the mess that it is.
