A Different Way To Finding Each Other

Irritable and Irritated

A few days after turning twelve, Callie felt a huge change in her body and she felt weird, but didn't know how or why. All she knew was that her tummy hurt and it was bad and she threw up and she went to get her mama.

"Mama!" the girl cried out as she felt feverish and hot. She was like on fire and it sucked and the girl didn't know why. All she knew was that she needed her mama, but she remembered her mama was still at her board meetings and her mommy was at work and she sighed and just went to take a much needed nap in her playroom on the couch.

It was a lot quieter for the girl since her friends were in her room doing homework at her table she had in the middle and she decided to go to her playroom as she got on the couch and was out like a light literally.

She was so tired it wasn't even funny and she smiled and sighed and like the quiet and she wasn't hungry at all and she got a blanket from the couch and went to bed. Her chores and homework were done and she got up to go to the bathroom and nothing. Her pee was a tad bit yellow and she went to get a bottle of water to drink and came back to her playroom and got her Mrs. Lamb and cuddled with her. She gazed at Mrs. Lamb and smiled. Was it really eleven years with Mrs. Lamb she asked herself as she remembered that her mama told her she was a year old when she got it for her. 

Lena and almost one year old Callie were at a Target and the girl saw it and smiled a tad bit and Lena knew her baby girl wanted the Lamb and she also got a Tiger for Caleb and a Lion for Callum as well.

On their shared 1st birthday, Lena gave them each a bag gift and the three opened them and each took out their gifts as they grinned and hugged their new plush characters and she even took pictures with their new plush friends as well.

Callie smiled, but didn't remember that at all, she went by what her mama told her as she smiled wide. The baby girl was fast asleep as her tummy hurt and she felt hot like a furnace.

"Where's Callie?" Lena asked.

"In her playroom," Emma replied. "She went in there right when we got home today from school."

Lena frowned and she didn't like that her kids were in their playrooms all day and she put her purse down and went to her baby girl's playroom and tried to open the door and it was locked and she sighed and knocked and no reply. She got a tad bit worried and went to find the key in the master bedroom and got it and went back down to the her daughter's playroom and opened the door to find her baby girl asleep.

"Baby girl?" Lena asked as she kissed her and the girl woke up.

"Hi mama. I was just tired," she added. "I'm sorry."

"That is alright. I was just a tad bit worried since I didn't see you and heard you were in here since you all got home from school. Do you feel sick?"

"I threw up once and I was hot and my tummy hurt, but that's it."

"How about now?" Lena asked. 

"No not anymore," the girl added. "I did my extra homework Timothy gave us, but we don't have school tomorrow or Monday and we have a four day weekend and daddy picks us up tomorrow."

"I know," Lena replied feeling worried. She didn't want her to go, but it would not be fair to Robert, the boys or Callie. "I will need to let daddy know and to keep an eye on you."

The girl nodded and sighed. Her mama continued to stare. "Why are you looking at me like that? Take a picture it lasts longer," the girl snapped as Lena was taken aback and later the girl was all smiles and Lena just figured she had a hard four days at school and sighed.

Lena kissed her forehead as the girl got up and went to fold her blanket and put it back on her couch and her mama watched her go. "Baby girl? How about some Barbie Mermaids?"
