Sleeping Next To The Pirate King 63 Chicken Noodle Soup

I opened my eyes as I felt warmth fill my whole body. It was as if I was on fire. My throat burns as if I had ate saw dust or sandpaper. My vision was slightly blurry as my head rested on a soft pillow. My mother's voice continued to softly fill my ears as my terrible state got even worse.

"Mom?"

"Yes sweetie?"

"I'm sorry."

"What are you sorry for Mila?"

Hot tears ran down my cheeks as my mother stirred a small bowl in her hands. Her dirty blonde hair tied up in a lazy bun as her soft amber eyes rested on me with concern. Her beautiful and compa.s.sionate face wrinkled as she worried about me. Suddenly my bedroom door opened as my younger teen sister and dad walked in. My sister's blonde hair shone as she smiled and said.

"What an idiot. We live in Seattle yet she walks around without an umbrella."

My sister pouted as my dad slapped the back of her head playfully.

"Be nice to your sister Sia. She's been pus.h.i.+ng herself these days preparing for her midterms, while you've been running around with your friends chasing boys."

"I wasn't chasing boys daddy, we were going to the library to study."

My father sighed before he walked up to the side of my bed as he touched my burning forehead. A look of concern filled his soft features. He adjusted his gla.s.ses. A habit that he would do whenever he was nervous. My heart clenched as I looked at my family. Just a few minutes ago I was in the s.h.i.+p coughing blood. This must be a dream. Maybe I should apologize to my family for the pain that I had caused them when I died.

"I'm sorry for all the trouble that I've put you guys through. For all the pain that I've caused you guys and made you go through."

Ugh. I think that I'm sick with the flu or something. I feel like utter s.h.i.+t. My mother chuckled as she leaned in and brought the small spoon to my lips. She then turned to my sister and dad who sat next to my bed.

"The two of you get out of here! I don't have the energy or tone to take care of two other sick b.i.t.c.hes if you contract her sickness!"

My father and sister saluted my mother as they sarcastically bowed and said.

"Aye, aye captain!"

My mother then turned to look at me with a soft smile as she reached over and gave me another spoon of soup. The door behind her slammed s.h.i.+t as my dad and sister left.

"What are you apologizing for Mila? All the pain that I've gone through was only necessary so that I could see your small happy smile. Do you know what it felt like to go through twelve hours of labor then see a small little body which is yours? It feels like I was truly blessed with a piece of heaven. At that moment I forgot all of the pain, days of morning sickness, and suffering. Whenever I see your smiling face Mila, all of my pain somehow seems to just melt away. So don't apologize to me. Instead continue to smile for me. A mother's true happiness is that of her child's. I'm happy that you're my daughter. Now stop talking nonsense and eat this chicken noodle soup so that you could get better soon."

The tears continued to fall down my cheeks as I let the hot slightly salty liquid enter my mouth. My mom's chicken noodle soup is the best. Since I was a toddler my mom would make it for me whenever I got sick. Despite the fact that I hate peas and carrots I still eat it after seeing the effort she puts into it.

A few minutes later the small bowl was empty as I felt my stomach swoosh from how full it is. My mother kissed the top of my head as she pulled the covers up to cover me. She then placed a cool towel on my forehead as my fever burned. Despite how s.h.i.+tty I felt, my heart was leaping with happiness. As I hear my mom open the door to my room I said.

"I love you mom."

My mom looked at me with her usual small smile and lit up eyes. The statement that I had longed to listen to for a long time came to me.

"I love you too sweetie. Now stop talking and rest up. When you get better there's a new show that you have to catch up on with me on Netflix!"

I smiled as I felt my eyelids droop. Even if this was just a dream, I wish that I could never wake up.
