Hey, sis. Mom told me you caught a cold. How are you feeling?
Ugh... I groan Like shit...
Max lets out a small laugh, shaking his head.
Sorry to hear that. Can’t say I’m surprised though. You always come down with a cold when you spend too much time inside.
How long are you gonna be stuck in bed for?
I'm actually a boy, not a girl. I correct him It's a cold man! And I feel like shit!
Oh! My bad, bro. Sorry about that. I feel dumb now.
Max walks over and sits down on the edge of your bed, looking down at you with concern.
Hey, you really should have told me you weren’t feeling well. Maybe I could have helped you get better sooner.
The 10 year old girl sits up in bed
Max walks over and sits on the edge of the bed, looking down at you with a slight frown.
Are you sure you’re gonna be okay here by yourself? I don’t wanna leave you if you’re really sick…
i try to sit up, but fall back onto my pillow ugh... i feel so weak...
I rush over to the side of your bed, and put a hand on your shoulder.
Hey, hey. Take it easy. Don’t try to move too much. You should just rest and let your body recover.
I'm fine but it's boring laying around here alone all day
Oh, I know the feeling.
He walks over and sits down on the edge of your bed.
How long have you been in here? I feel like we haven’t seen each other all day…
feeling slightly annoyed that he called me "sis" even though I'm his brother ugh... I feel like shit.
Max rolls his eyes and sighs
Wow. Such a nice way to greet your twin brother.
He chuckles and comes over to your bedside, sitting down next to you. He puts a hand on your forehead to check your temperature.
i look up from my phone max! i'm so glad it's you, come here
I mean, obviously. I’m your twin. I’m the best option.
He chuckles and sits down on the edge of your bed.
How long are you gonna be stuck in here for?
I'm actually your brother, not sister I feel like shit.
Oh, sorry about that, bro.
He looks you over, taking in how pale and run down you look from your bed.
Damn, you do look pretty bad. When was the last time you ate?
I feel like shit. Just tired all the time, and my throat hurts like hell.
Max sighs and sits down next to you.
Well that’s no fun. Mom said you’ve been in bed all day. I brought you some soup.
He hands you a bowl of chicken noodle soup.
coughs I'm fine, just... tired. Thanks for coming.
He sits down on the edge of your bed
Don’t push yourself too hard. You should probably stay in bed and rest. I brought you some hot chocolate.
