Chapter 26
A sudden gasp exitted Leo’s mouth as she was suddenly woken up 45 minutes later by her husband shaking her shoulder.
“ Leo wake up.”, Sheldon said in concern as he continued shaking his wife’s shoulder.
“ What Sheldon? What is it?”, Leo groggily asked as she rubbed her eyes.
“ The tornado watch was just updated to a tornado warning. We need to go to the basement.”, Sheldon said in a serious tone as the tornado siren blared outside.
“ Oh god, Cayela wake up sweetheart.”, Leo said as she rolled over in the bed and gently shook Cayela’s shoulder.
“ What’s going on?”, Cayela groggily asked as she sat up and rubbed her eyes.
“ We’re under a tornado warning now. Your father just came to wake us up.”, Leo said as she got up out of the bed. Cayela pulled her shorts back on and got up too.
“ Florence wake up.”, Cayela said as she shook her best friend’s shoulder.
“ Why? What’s going on?”, Florence groggily asked as she started to wake up.
“ Tornado Warning. We have to go to the basement.”, Cayela said.
“ Oh crap! Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?!”, Florence exclaimed as she jumped out of the chair.
“ We didn’t know. We were asleep until my dad came in here and woke us up.”, Cayela said.
“ Lord in Heaven what are y’all still doing up here?! Georgie and Missy are already in the basement waiting for us! Let’s go!”, Mrs. Cooper scolded her youngest son, daughter in-law, granddaughter and her granddaughter’s best friend as she suddenly stormed into the bedroom wondering what the hell they were doing.
“ Mom, now’s not the time to scream at us! I was just telling them to get up!”, Sheldon interjected.
“ Ok I’m out of here! I see a tornado in the distance!”, Florence screamed as she peeked through the window blinds for a brief second before bolting out of the room past Mrs. Cooper and down the stairs.
“ Hey wait up Florence!”, Cayela screamed as she ran past her grandmother and after her best friend.
“ Girls no running!”, Leo, Sheldon and Mrs. Cooper scolded as they walked out of the room and down the stairs.
“ Yeah Florence slow down!”, Cayela screamed as she continued running after Florence.
“ Move it or lose it Cayela! I’m freaking out!”, Florence screamed as she ran through the kitchen and down the basement stairs just as the lights in the house started flickering as if they were strobe lights. Cayela started screeching like a young girl in a horror movie when the power suddenly blew out entirely, engulfing the entire house in darkness as she ran as fast as she could down the basement stairs almost knocking down her best friend as the two girls continued sprinting for dear life down the steps before reaching the basement. They ran to one corner and dove over the couch just as Leo, Sheldon and Mrs. Cooper came down the steps.
“ Ok, ow! That hurt!”, Cayela shrieked as she sat up from behind the couch.
“ Good Lord! Cayela what are you doing over there?!”, Sheldon scolded.
“ Florence and I sort of dove over here dad and I hit my head on the floor.”, Cayela said as she rubbed her head.
“ Cayela you and Florence shouldn’t be over there, it’s not safe! Get over here with the rest of us!”, Leo scolded as she shook her head.
“ Ok.”, Cayela said as she and Florence listened to what her mother said. Leo then held Cayela tightly in her lap as she sat next to Sheldon who gripped her tightly.
“ Mom, any reason why you’re holding me so tightly?”, Cayela asked as she looked up at her mother.
“ Because I don’t want anything to happen to you.”, Leo said as she kissed her daughter’s head.
“ And neither do I.”, Sheldon said.
“ I need a flashlight or something! I can’t see anything!”, Florence screamed.
“ I second that Crenshamezki.”, Cayela said as she started feeling around the floor.
“ I got one right here.”, Missy said as she picked up the flashlight that she had in her hand and turned it on.
“ I’m scared!”, Cayela frightenly cried out.
“ Cayela calm down. It’s ok baby.”, Leo said as she gently rubbed her hands up and down Cayela’s shoulders.
“ This sucks! What if it hits us and we die?!”, Georgie interjected.
“ Georgie stop it! Nothing is going to hit this house in Jesus name!”, Mrs. Cooper shouted at her eldest son.
“ Would you shut up Ma?! No one gives a bi**hing care!”, Georgie interjected.
“ Heavenly Father do not talk to me like that and what have I told you about cursing in this house?! No cursing, especially in front of your niece here! Cayela doesn’t need to hear that out of her uncle’s mouth!”, Mrs. Cooper shouted.
“ I most certainly agree with that. Please don’t say things like that in front of my daughter.”, Sheldon said as he narrowed his eyes at his brother.
“ Oh shut up Sheldon!”, Georgie hissed.
“ Hey what in the name of the Lord did I say?! We don’t say shut up in this family!”, Mrs. Cooper shouted at both of her grown adult sons.
“ Can we stop the arguing please? I’m really getting scared.”, Cayela said as she huddled herself into a ball in her mother’s lap and arms.
“ Honey no one is arguing about anything. It’s just your Uncle Georgie letting out a little bit of steam.”, Leo said.
“ Like he does everyday! He’s like a wild hog that won’t ever shut up!”, Missy interjected with a southern accent. Cayela and Florence busted out laughing after the second she said that.
“ I’ll turn you into a wild hog in a minute if you don’t shut up Missy!”, Georgie hissed in a southern accent at his sister.
“ Alright, that’s enough! Y’all cut it out right this minute before I thump the Holy Bible over both y’all’s heads and make you pray to the Lord for forgiveness! I will not have any of you worshipping Satan in this house!”, Mrs. Cooper shouted in a southern accent.
“ We’re really gonna talk about that Grandma Mary when there’s a tornado raging outside right now?”, Cayela asked as she narrowed her eyes at her grandmother. Sounds of glass shattering and whipping winds were going on above their heads as she was saying this.
“ There’s never not an appropriate time to be talking about that. The Lord is always with us.”, Mrs. Cooper said.
“ I reject your conclusion.”, Sheldon said.
“ Shelly, enough!”, Mrs. Cooper scolded.
“ I’m cold!”, Cayela interjected.
“ Me too!”, Florence interjected.
“ Well here’s some blankets that I grabbed from upstairs. You can wrap yourselves up with them.”, Leo said as she handed her daughter one blanket and tossed the other one to Florence. Both girls quickly wrapped themselves up in the blankets.
“ Better?”, Leo asked.
“ Yeah, thank you mom.”, Cayela said as she snuggled more closely to her mother’s chest with the soft blanket wrapped around her, sighing contently. Florence just nodded her head in silence as she started to nod off again.
“ You’re welcome sweetheart.”, Leo said. Cayela fell back asleep as well against her mother’s chest, smiling contently. Leo gently stroked the top of her daughter’s head as she began to nod off against her husband’s shoulder. For the next several minutes nobody said anything and when the storm passed they came up from the basement to check out the damage. Surprisingly the house was still standing and the only damage that was done was the shattered out windows and bits of debris lying on the floor. 2 days later Cayela and Florence were playing together in the backyard, laughing and chasing each other around with no shoes on their feet.
“ I’m gonna get you Florence! It’s time for me to show you who’s boss!”, Cayela laughed as she chased her best friend around the yard.
“ I don’t think so! In your dreams Cayela! If anything I should show you who’s boss!”, Florence laughed as she sprinted away from Cayela.
“ Oh yeah?! Wrestle me for it?!”, Cayela laughed as she stopped running.
“ You’re on bestie!”, Florence laughed as she faced her.
“ Ok! 3,2,1! Ding ding ding!”, Cayela exclaimed as she playfully tackled Florence to the ground. The two girls started rolling around with each other in the grass, trying to pin each other down as if they were in a WWE wrestling match. As they were doing so it suddenly came to an abrupt halt when Cayela screamed out in pain, holding her foot as she sat up.
“ What?! What happened?!”, Florence exclaimed as she stared at her best friend.
“ Something just bit the top of my foot!”, Cayela screamed as she clenched her teeth, trying to fight back the tears forming in her eyes.
“ Well let me see.”, Florence said. Cayela moved her hands away for a second and what Florence saw was that the top of Cayela’s left foot looked red and swollen.
“ You’re right. I’m going to go get help, just stay here for a second.”, Florence said as she got up and sprinted into the house.
“ Dr. Cooper and Dr. Fordyce-Cooper, you should come outside for a second. It looks like something bit Cayela’s left foot which I’m thinking it was a fire ant or something. The top of her foot is looking pretty red and swollen.”, Florence said as she scratched the back of her head.
“ What?! Cayela!”, Sheldon and Leo screamed as they ran outside to the backyard. They saw their daughter sitting in the grass holding her foot looking like she was about to cry.
“ Oh sweetheart are you ok?!”, Leo exclaimed as she ran over to her with Sheldon following her.
“ No mom, something bit me!”, Cayela screamed.
“ Well here, let me see.”, Sheldon said as he reached for his daughter’s foot.
“ Ow, don’t touch my foot like that dad! It hurts!”, Cayela screamed the second her father’s hand made contact with her foot.
“ Relax Cayela I’m not hurting you. I just want to see... oh good Lord, you did get bitten by a fire ant!”, Sheldon exclaimed as he saw how red and swollen his daughter’s foot was.
“ Come on, let’s go into the house.”, Leo said as she picked up Cayela and carried her into the house.
“ Good Heavens! What in the name of the Lord happened to Cayela?!”, Mrs. Cooper exclaimed as she saw Leo carrying Cayela into the house before setting her down into a living room chair.
“ Cayela got bitten by a fire ant outside.”, Leo said as she propped Cayela’s foot up on the ottoman just as Sheldon was walking into the room carrying a first aid kit. He set it down on the side table next to Cayela, opened it up and took out a pair of latex gloves, adhesive gauze, bandages, an antiseptic agent and baking soda. He mixed the two substances together, creating a white paste.
“ This may sting a little bit but it should help with taking the fire ant venom out.”, Sheldon said as he took a cotton swab and dipped it into the paste. As he gently spread it over his daughter’s foot she hissed in pain as tears began to stream down her face.
“ Ow! That hurts!”, Cayela cried out as she clenched her teeth together.
“ Shhh, stop crying. You’re ok.”, Sheldon said as he gently wrapped Cayela’s foot up with the gauze and bandages. After that Cayela was carried into the bathroom. Cayela was sleeping like a baby by the time she carried into one of the bedrooms. Florence joined her shortly after. 2 hours later Cayela woke up and when she saw that Florence was still sleeping next to her, she began to get a devious smirk on her face. She carefully stood up on her side of the bed, pulled her phone out and turned on the song Two Stars Are Brighter Than One by Meaghan Martin before playfully jumping up and down on the bed. The sudden movements woke Florence up and she just sat there staring at her best friend.
“ Cayela what are you doing?!”, Florence laughed.
“ Trying to wake you up Florence!”, Cayela laughed as she continued bouncing around on the bed to the beat of the music. Her hair was flying and bouncing all over the place.
“ You’re a goof you know that!”, Florence laughed as she stood up and joined in with her friend.
“ So are you!”, Cayela laughed.
“ Man I’m so glad that you’re my best friend! Seriously you’re like the coolest person I’ve ever met!”, Florence laughed.
“ I feel the same way about you too!”, Cayela laughed.
“ I so wish Charlotte was here with us!”, Florence laughed.
“ I know me too! It would be triple the fun!”, Cayela laughed.
“ Exactly!”, Florence laughed. As the two girls continued bouncing around on the bed laughing their heads off while the music still played, Leo and Sheldon walked in to check on them.
“ Girls?”, Leo asked as she stood in the doorway.
“ Oh god you scared me mom! I didn’t even know you and dad were standing there!”, Cayela shrieked as she jumped back a little bit on one foot staring back at her mother.
“ Oh sorry Cayela we didn’t mean to scare you, we just wanted to check up on you to see if you were awake.”, Leo said with a smile.
“ Yeah we are.”, Cayela said.
“ What are you and Florence doing?”, Sheldon asked as he narrowed his eyes at his daughter.
“ We’re just bouncing around on the bed dad listening to music from my phone!”, Cayela laughed as her and Florence continued jumping around.
“ Cayela Rachelle Fordyce-Cooper, beds are not trampolines! They are not made to jump on! Now you and your friend get down this instant before one of you gets hurt please!”, Sheldon scolded her. Cayela flinched at the sound of her full name and the seriousness of her father’s voice. She knew she would get it if she didn’t listen.
“ Ok.”, Cayela said as she got down off the bed. Florence did the same.
“ Thank you.”, Sheldon said.
“ Buzzkill.”, Florence said.
“ Excuse me Florence?!”, Sheldon scolded as he narrowed his eyes at her.
“ Sorry Dr. Cooper.”, Florence said.
“ You are so funny Florence!”, Cayela laughed.
“ So are you Cayela!”, Florence laughed.
“ Ok let’s tone down the laughter a little bit girls before you start having laughing seizures.”, Leo said.
“ We’re just trying to have a little fun mom!”, Cayela laughed.
“ Well you can go back to it in just a minute. It’s break time.”, Leo said.
“ Aw, I don’t want this right now!”, Cayela protested as her mother picked her up and dragged her out of the room.
“ Cayela what did I say? I don’t want to hear it. You know the routine. We don’t want you getting sick.”, Leo said as she carried Cayela into the bathroom. After that the day continued on as normal. But in the middle of the night Cayela suddenly woke up with an aching stomach and feeling very hot.
“ Mom?”, Cayela asked when she entered the bedroom where her parents were sleeping.
“ Yes Cayela what is it?”, Leo groggily asked when she sat up in bed.
“ I can’t sleep. My stomach hurts and I’m feeling very hot.”, Cayela said. Leo immediately got out of the bed and walked up to her. As she ran her hand against her daughter’s forehead and face she said, “ Oh sweetheart I think you’re running a fever. Come on let’s go to the bathroom for a moment and let your father sleep.” She walked Cayela to the bathroom, turned on the light, and had Cayela sit down on the closed toilet seat lid. Leo then opened the medicine cabinet and took out a thermometer.
“ Ok open your mouth and hold this under your tongue.”, Leo said. Cayela opened her mouth and watched her mother stick it into her mouth under her tongue. She sat still for a few minutes.
Beep! Beep!
“ 104.5 degrees. Yeah you have a fever Cayela. But we’re going to fix that with a nice cold bath.”, Leo said as she turned on the faucet, letting the bathtub fill up with cold water. She then stripped Cayela out of her pajamas and diaper before placing her into the tub. Cayela shivered and gasped at the sudden temperature change.
“ I know it’s cold sweetheart but we have to lower your body temperature. You’ll develop brain damage if we don’t.”, Leo said as she grabbed a wash cloth, dipped it into the water and gently wiped it all over her daughter’s body as well as her forehead. It was then that Sheldon woke up and came walking into the bathroom.
“ Leo what are you doing in here?”, Sheldon asked as he stared at his wife.
“ Cayela came down with a fever so I put her in the tub to cool her down.”, Leo said as she turned her head around to see her husband standing there in the doorway.
“ Did you take her temperature?”, Sheldon asked.
“ Yes Sheldon I did that before I put her in the tub.”, Leo said.
“ Well what was her temperature?”, Sheldon asked.
“ 104.5 degrees.”, Leo said.
“ Oh dear Lord! That’s the same temperature as a hot tub Leo!”, Sheldon said.
“ I know that.”, Leo said. She bathed Cayela for a few minutes before redressing her and put her back to bed, laying a cold wet wash cloth across her head. Every few minutes Leo and Sheldon would get up to check on her but they began to panic when they saw that their daughter’s fever was getting slightly worse.
“ Sheldon stay in here with her for a moment! I’m going to go get your mother!”, Leo said in a panic as she frantically ran out of the room and down the hallway to her mother in-law’s bedroom.
“ Mom Mary get up! Cayela has come down with a fever and it’s getting worse! I don’t know what to do!”, Leo screamed as she pounded on the door.
“ Oh Lord in Heaven!”, Mrs. Cooper shrieked from behind the door but when she opened the door she said, “ Leo calm down! Everything’s going to be ok! Just take some deep breaths!”
“ We have to take her to the hospital now or she’s going to die!”, Leo screamed as she hyperventilated.
“ Don’t ever say things like that sweetheart! The Lord will protect her! He gave her to you and Shelly for a reason! Don’t ever doubt his plan!”, Mrs. Cooper said as she held her hysterical and distraught daughter in-law in her arms.
“ What the bi**hing hell is going on out here?!”, Georgie hissed as he came out of his room.
“ Georgie! I said no cursing in this house!”, Mrs. Cooper scolded in a southern accent.
“ Whatever Ma! What’s going on?! Why’s Leo freaking out?!”, Georgie hissed.
“ Cayela’s come down with a high fever and we need to take her to the hospital!”, Mrs. Cooper interjected.
“ Well what are y’all standing around like a bunch of wild hogs for?! We need to go now!”, Missy interjected in a southern accent as she exited her room and joined the conversation.
“ Missy your comment is not helping the cause right now! I’m genuinely freaked out by what’s going on with my daughter! More than my husband right now who’s your brother!”, Leo screamed at her sister in-law.
“ What the heck’s going on out here?! Why’s everyone screaming in the middle of the night?!”, Florence asked as she stood in the doorway of the bedroom that her and Cayela were sharing, rubbing her eyes. Mrs. Cooper explained everything and that night they all rushed to the hospital. Once Cayela was admitted into a room it was like she couldn’t get comfortable. She tossed, turned, screamed and cried as doctors and nurses were poking and prodding her. They ran a whole lot of tests on her and placed cooling packs on her head, behind her neck, between her legs and underneath her armpits hoping to break her fever. After a few minutes of not knowing anything the test results came back and they said that Cayela was suffering from heat stroke.
“ What’s that?”, Cayela asked in confusion as she stared at the doctor.
“ Well heat stroke is a condition that occurs when your body has been exposed to excessive heat for a long period of time, whether it’s you hanging out in that kind of environment or doing some kind of physical activity.”, Dr. Jason Parker said as he looked at his clipboard.
“ Is this serious?”, Leo asked with worry in her voice.
“ Well to tell you the truth Dr. Fordyce-Cooper, considering the fact that you and your husband rushed your daughter here in the middle of the night in a panic with your family I’d say yes. Heat stroke is very serious and there’s a few complications that it can cause: headaches, dizziness, loss of consciousness and even death.”, Dr. Parker said.
“ Oh good Lord!”, Sheldon shrieked.
“ Sheldon let’s not cause a scene right now! This is not the place for that!”, Leo hissed.
“ Yes let’s all calm down and try to get some more sleep.”, Mrs. Cooper said.
“ Ok.”, Leo said. Dr. Parker talked to them for a few more minutes before he walked out. As the 7 of them tried to get some more sleep little did they know that something shady was going on outside the hospital behind a bush.
“ Yeah that’s right, enjoy your peaceful, pathetic slumber because it won’t last long! I will destroy you pathetic mortals once and for all! Nothing shall stand in my way, nothing!”, Dr. Stormbender maliciously said as he let out an evil laugh.
Sorry if this chapter is kind of short. I just wanted to end it on a cliffhanger. What do you think will happen next? Let me know in the comments. To be continued...
