After Alyssa's shoes were delivered, Alex made good on her promise and took
the little girl out to play in the garden. They ran around playing take and
go and go seek until Alex was completely warn out. At that point, she sat
down on a bench and watched the little girl exploring the garden. This kept
Alyssa busy for quite awhile and she seemed to be having fun. That is
until Alex saw her stop dead in her tracks. The little girl was frozen for
a moment then she ducked her head away from the bright afternoon sun and
moved slowly towards Alex.
"Alyssa? What's wrong?"
"My head hurts," the little girl told her.
Alex frowned, she'd been just fine only moments before. She reached out an
touched her forehead, she might have been a little warm, she wasn't sure
though. After all it was Sunny and hse'd been out running around. "Why
don't we take a break," she suggested and lifted Alyssa up carrying her
inside the house. She'd never seen a kid go from fine to sick so fast.
Maybe it was migraines, she'd heard they could be like that sometimes, but
in a child?
Alex and Alyssa
