Myra All Mine

Chapter 29

Amika's Pov
10am
...

I decided that now I was getting tired of being in bed and Lucas wasn't here to stop me...so I started to make the bed and clean the room up abit...

I then made my way to the kitchen and found some of the helpers, which I greeted and Miss Osbury, the housekeeper and head helper.

Lucas told me she'd been her ever since he started living alone and she also took care of Myra when he wasn't around or if he didn't know what to do....he always mentioned that he's very grateful to her....

She looked like she was in her mid 50s...with slightly greyish brown hair, that was neatly kept in place...
"Good Morning miss Osbury.." I said with a smile while throwing away all the garbage I wanted to throw away
"Good Morning to you too Amika.....and Good Morning to you too down there...." she said also mentioning my baby
I chuckled
"How's Myra doing now...?" she asked
"Well atleast she doesn't have a sore throat anymore, and her fever went away, so she's a little better now..."
"That is very good to know..."
"Oh could you please heat up the chicken soup, I'd really appreciate..."
"No problem... I'm assuming it's for Myra right?...."
"Yes, it is..."
"I have some herbs that you can add to her bath water, they will boost her immune system and unclog her nose when she inhales it..." she said while handing me a pouch of leaves
"Thank you so much.... I'll definitely use them..."
"It's my pleasure and breakfast will be ready in 30 minutes..."
I nodded and left the kitchen

Last week was Courtney's birthday, so everyone was invited, including the house helps and the workers., which is where Lucas and I announced that we would be expecting a baby

Courtney was ecstatic from what I saw, she seemed really happy as well, although she was almost if not more protective than Lucas of me and the baby.....she said that it was the best birthday gift she could ever recieve....

Everybody congratulated us and wished us happily, while the guys teased Lucas about having a second child...

Lena and Loren congratulated  me privately and asked me to tell them everything about how I found out, when I told Lucas and what not...

Though I could notice that Loren looked a little sad....I mean I couldn't blame her at all, in less than a month she'd be getting married to s complete stranger...who might as well be even 60...

Poor girl.... I wish I could help her more

Just then I had an Idea, before she got married I could try and comfort her...in a happy-ish way.

I went to Myra's room and found her watching TV on her bed, with her back facing me, so I backhugged her
"Good Morning cupcake....how are you feeling today?, is your throat scratchy or does your nose hurt?...."
"Mommy!!...." is all she answered while hugging me, I completely forgot Lucas didn't want us to have any physical contact..but she seemed better than before..she wasn't breaking into fits of coughs....or sneezing
"Do you feel better?.." I asked again
"Hmm..." was all she said and then she sneezed about 5 times
"Hmm...it seems you still have a little bit of a cold.....you know what, let me run you a hot bath, then you can have some soup..."

She didn't even argue...the Myra I knew hated soup, so this was my sign...that she definitely wasn't well yet..

...

After some minutes, the water was finally ready for Myra to get in, I grabbed her towel and motioned for her to get into the towel since she'd already undressed

I carried her into the bathroom and softly placed her in the bathtub where she started to play with some toys that were on the bathtub
