Zaryn POV

It's 2 AM on a Saturday night. Zoey has broke out into a cold-sweat fever, and mom and I are nervous. I hope she gets better. I really do, the poor kid doesn't need illness.

"How's she doing, Zar?" Mom asks me, coming to check on us. Zoey is crying, and I can tell she wants her dad. So I text Zak.

"She misses Zak, so we are texting him." I tell her.

To: Zak

Yea, all is well on my end. Doctor says I will def be home on Monday, but I'm not going to be going to school or work or soccer for a few weeks.

To: Zak

Oh. How come? I thought they were treating and then you were good to go😕

2:21 AM

From: Zak

Well,they're treating me, yes. But my body still needs time to heal, and properly regain full health. I could go to soccer after about a week of being home because I could use the excercise, but I could have to take it super easy and be very careful.
