“Hey, how did you sleep,” Nate asked me when I woke up the next morning.
“I slept fine, but I had the strangest dream ever,” I answered.
“What was it about,” he asked.
“I was eating the best ice cream that I’ve ever had and then all of a sudden it
turned into slimy worms and I was being chased by evil purple penguins,” I
told him.
“Is that all there is to it?”
“I think so because after that part it kind of faded away,” I replied.
“Oh, how strange,” Nate said. “So how are you feeling this morning?”
“A little bit better than yesterday, but not that much. What time is it?”
“Eleven,” Nate smirked.
“What,” I exclaimed. “What about school?”

yesterday, but just the mention of food made me feel sick.
“At all,” Nate asked me worriedly.
“I’m hungry, it’s just the thought of food makes me want to puke,” I explained.
“Could you have the stomach flu?”
“I don’t think that the regular flu is accompanied with stomach pains of this
kind,” I told him.
“I’m not talking about the stomach pains, just the nauseousness,” he explained.
“I don’t think so, but you could be right,” I said.
“Yeah, do want to see what Kate and Christian today? Maybe they’ll wanna
