Chapter 50

julie:

It’s been three weeks since Angel and I moved here. Everything has been great, except my health. My sickness got worse than I could imagine; I’ve been vomiting everything I eat, and it just comes back up. I have an appointment in two days, but the way I feel right now, I don’t think I can wait. Maggie has been here most of the time, making dinner for us or bringing breakfast, lunch, and everything. She has been taking care of Angel since she found out I wasn’t doing great. At times like this, I miss my mom; she is the only one who always seems to know what to do or say that will make me feel a lot better.

“Hey Julie, here is some tea. It will help you feel a lot better since you can’t seem to keep any food in your stomach.”

“Thanks, Maggie. Maybe you should take Angel out, you know, do something fun. She has been home for two weeks now, and I just want her to get some fresh air.”

“Sure, I will. But I will go get Pieter so he can keep an eye on you when I’m gone.”
