Homesick
Inside Melody’s house…
“Melody, time for school,” said her mother. Melody moans, then sneezes. Melody? Are you alright?
“No, mom, I think I have a fever,” said Melody.
“Are you sure?’ asked her mother. Let me go get the thermometer. She sticks it in Melody’s mouth and the mercury rises to 101 degrees. You do indeed, have a fever. Guess you’ll have to stay home today. Her phone rings and Melody answers.
“Hello?” said Melody in a rather low voice.
“So, you’re sick too, huh?” asked Bright Eyes.
“Uh-huh,” said Melody.
“Well, unfortunately so am… she sneezes... I,” said Bright Eyes.
“How are the others?” asked Melody.
“Sick as well, must be some kind of bug going around,” said Bright Eyes. I called them before I called you.
“Well, at least I’m not alone,” said Melody.
“That’s for sure, Melody,” said Bright Eyes. Well, hope you feel better.
“Yeah, you too,” said Melody.
“Bye,” said Bright Eyes.
“See ya,” said Melody. Both hang up their phones. Melody sneezes, then falls back into bed. At school…
“What does one do without students to teach?” asked Hackney. Hopefully tomorrow is better but what to do about today? Oh well, maybe I can just go home, seeing as I won’t be teaching today. Elsewhere, Ace calls Teddy.
“Hello?” said Teddy.
“Hey Teddy, so I hear you’re sick,” said Ace
“Really, how’d you guess?” asked Teddy.
“Oh, I discovered that by the fact that you weren’t in school today, no one seemed to be,” said Ace. I had already gotten a call from Bright Eyes, saying that everyone’s out sick. Well, gotta go, need my rest. He hangs up.
“Bye,” said Teddy. He too hangs up. At Bon-Bon’s house…
“Do you need anything, Bon-Bon?” asked her mother.
“If you wouldn’t mind getting me a glass of orange juice, that would be nice,” said Bon-Bon. She sneezes.
“That’s quite the cold you have,” said her father.
“Yeah, but at least it’s not just me,” said Bon-Bon. Just wish I weren’t sick at all.
“I’m sure everyone feels the same way you do, dear,” said her mother.
“I wonder how Mrs. Hackney’s handling the class,” said Bon-Bon.
“I bet she’s not in, seeing as there aren’t any students to teach,” said her father. Meanwhile, at Patch’s house…
“It’s a shame you’re sick, Patch,” said her mother. Any word on how your friends are doing?
“Well, from what Bright Eyes told me, everyone is sick,” said Patch. She sneezes.
“Everyone!?” said her mother. Is it really that bad a bug?
“I guess so,” said Patch.
“Well, hopefully you and your friends will feel better tomorrow,” said her father. Right now you need your sleep.
“Okay,” said Patch sighing. She sleeps. At all other houses, Melody, etc sleeps. The next day…
“Wow, I feel so much better!” said Patch. She calls everyone.
“I’m truly feeling much better,” said Sweetheart. I got a call from Teddy, whom says he feels better too.
“That’s good to hear,” said Patch.
“I can’t believe I’m saying it but I’m glad to be going back to school,” said Melody. Being stuck at home sick isn’t very fun at all.
“You can say that again,” said Bright Eyes. At school…
“Welcome back, class,” said Hackney. I guess you all are cured of whatever that nasty bug was.
“Yes, Mrs. Hackney and boy are we glad to have it gone,” said Bon-Bon.
“I can’t say that I blame you, Bon-Bon,” said Hackney. Now that you are all back, I want to say that I missed you all. Teaching just isn’t the same without students to teach.
“That’s true, Mrs. Hackney, that’s true,” said Bright Eyes.
“I’m glad you think so, Bright Eyes,” said Hackney. Yes it’s certainly good to have them back.
