So tell me the name of an idiot who decides to go out in the freezing cold of January London without even a Jacket?713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ybl4TXEhY
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLypcvogaB
Caleb Fucking Winters, that's who.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFArq4w51OO
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq3rgjAsvi
What's worse, is that in the line for the doll, I was in front of a man who was sneezing and coughing nonstop. When I came home I was feeling a bit stuffy, and I blamed it entirely on the cold. Obviously, I was wrong.
Evetta woke me up at two a.m. to inform me that I was roasting, and that she wanted me to take Panadol Cold and Flu; she then all but shoved the two tablets down my throat, and pushed a glass of water into my hands. That's when I realised that Sir Germs A Lot fucked me over.
She's been taking my temperature every half an hour ever since.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNCiSVg2Xt
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI1LANACN2
"104.5. That's still high," she sighs. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQIfqrprwv
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15n3DPThux
I feel like shit. My insides feel hot, and everything outside feels cold. My nose is clogged, so when I talk, I sound like Barney.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9omK58EBps
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAdpT7eVCU
Then, something occurs to me. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnJcqufHDE
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUy6q0iMx2
"Aren't you supposed to be at work?"713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Yprou1EZp
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM3sKHo808
She looks at me as if I'm retarded.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvjnulQGtu
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaOSvkIVwz
"You're sick."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eIBFSdgjW
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFt84dnoNXh
"You have a job."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeuR2UQLNb

"I also have a boyfriend who can't even breathe through his nose."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6xXZgcbLL
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkvBZK7tk0
"I can take care of myself," I insist, feeling like so many different kinds of shit. "Go to work," I order her. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdllvhbRRl
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUcJeJHuvt
"No," she replies.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2A92TmBb5
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0o8RpmZfxG
"Evetta, I don't need anyone to take care of me; please go to work." I can't have her miss work to take care of me.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVoG41Ipdq
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb1tKyMHT1
"I'd rather not."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8FK7i6W4o
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PEucl9Trj
I sigh in frustration.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeNYyupaIk
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOHyjpl3Vx
Of course, as per usual, I internalise that frustration. I'm supposed to take care of her, yet here I am, helpless as ever. Again.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv0Ottku7w
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r0y6GYh4m
"Stop." 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB452FDNqX
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZHzDXzZSw
"Huh?" I say, at a complete loss as to what she is talking about.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns20vJdyny
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvEvkh9wec
"Stop blaming yourself. I don't mind missing work to take care of you; I really don't. Please stop being so dramatic."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAJL4JYSWz
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a8gWmXDoX
I nod at her, saying nothing. She sighs.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvDbKrN4Ki
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmgcBfY78w
"Go to sleep, Caleb. You look tired."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMZrIpUOLc
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfE1c8kJZu
I pretend that I didn't hear her.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFnKUSBhM8
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHPoQj6xkm
"I want to hear you play the violin."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9gvUVQRV7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdD7aEW49e
She looks at me surprised.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawqBvA98l7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUfLkuBwIr
"I haven't played in a while—"713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63dq7vDCQq
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjYIXSHnVi
"Then make something up," I say teasingly. She shoots me a glare and I backtrack.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNca9UuKuP
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKlC9mn6Ap
"Okay," I say, chuckling. "What about 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star'"? 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jRzeoyxgW
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyxuGqKeuH
She smiles at me.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDWfRDhNjS
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe67RGvHZTe
"I would, but I don't have any rosin."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8W52KhqMD
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JbzO6ehXr
"Yes, you do. Look in the bottom of the bag."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQYJs8BBUY
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62BuCfw0P1
She raises her eyebrow. "Did you plan to have me play for you?"713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z5jbu2wR7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DK6basG4r
"Babe, I just wanted to give you the full package," I reply, pun unapologetically intended.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0yYK5FuP2
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xEMOL6KTq
Her smile broadens. "Glad to know."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJJMJ3ztUt
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0yrvkToiS
She takes the rosin out of the bag and removes it from its casing; as she applies it, I can't deny that she has a certain elegance about her. When she looks up and catches me staring at her, she raises an eyebrow, and I raise mine back.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTIJJgpLBn
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbirHUPu99w
"Okay. So, 'Twinkle Twinkle', right?" she asks, and I nod my head enthusiastically.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt0L54jtCy
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaydLOk0D1F
Then, she begins.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht19v4nAfm
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqzTNqsSCK
To be honest, she's kind of a show off. She uses chords, somehow manages to run a scale through it after playing the note for 'sky', and when she's done, she simply puts everything away, as if the past two minutes never just happened.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQVt6MgvHv
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXy19XjWFO
When she turns back to me, she ignores my awed expression, and simply says:713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zblmbznOa
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRQMtXMUST
"It's time to take your temperature again."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLodH6gSRpE

713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyt2vcFsNa
"100.1. Better, but still a fever," Evetta says exasperated, sitting on the bed beside me.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAU8hRQ53G
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbt8BwOv2l
It's midday, and she has not left the house. She has not even bathed, but for some reason, she smells like baking soda, and beeswax, and... coconut oil?713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguo8SyXhiu
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQhO6HBBIG
I sniff a little more, trying to figure it out. Apparently I'm not as inconspicuous as I thought, because she notices.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt96yVFYM2
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTF7HBaq7x
"It's my deodorant. It's natural deodorant, and I wiped my armpits with wet wipes and I put it on this morning."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcTQ5CE6JI
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMM1vBlmcM
What the fuck? That's so strange.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEQxGMabI0
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5JeFEsXCU
"Why?"713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ay0lgMLgo
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LVpVYaxGN
"Because my armpits naturally smell like a gorilla's ass crack, and I didn't think you'd appreciate that smell. I'm making pumpkin soup. And before you ask me how I know where everything is, I know this house inside out. I used to stay here with you all the time, and after the accident, I never stopped coming here; I would keep your mother's company." With that, she leaves the room.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1aBiO810k
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQxVqFr1QP
Wow. She always knows what's going to fly out of my mouth; but why would she want to stay around my mother? It's not as if they have anything in common. My mother is humourless, timid, and very introverted. I just can't see my mother being close enough friends with Evetta that it would allow her to come over regularly.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelXu9KCD8i
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNjCAhc2Ps
And that speech about her armpits. A gorilla's ass crack. That sounds awful. What does that even mean? I try to imagine the smell, create it in my mind, and it isn't pleasant.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMJm0vh3pC
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJs5DELVN5
"Here," I hear her say from the doorway. Yet again, I failed to take notice of the passage of time, and I can hardly smell anything, but as she brings the steaming bowl to me, my stomach growls in anticipation, as if calling the food.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsITzMNDWJW
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMJ5zMlgyx
She laughs; it's that warm, bubbly sound again.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfJ5Z7mFGn
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5Ez6L1W69
"Try not to eat the bowl."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WfxuSswFZ
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSQfCAorWy
She sets the trey down on the bed in front of me and goes into the bathroom to bathe.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJXAh9A0Jz
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4merH8rZG
I look down at the thick, orange liquid, and raise a spoonful to my lips and blow on it before drinking it.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNOVep34Iu
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ742l3KXmn5
The taste is amazing; it's as if heaven has been brought down in the form of soup and presented to me.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRsKj6CtBT
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcxqmbXQNI
However, as I am pulling the spoon out of my mouth, something hits me; something big.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3eAdLKoZn
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8thJGeAzj9
A memory.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN31FoJowcf
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9xyyFXgV0
A memory of Evetta feeding me this same dish, literally feeding me with the spoon, a flirtatious smile on her face.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvH5zkCToi
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM1Pt80eCu
The my reaction.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurQ9tsVDSI

"Yes, of course, darling." 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmyRP8fxVs
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOrjCoCaIF
After which, we kissed.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2S8ZYGTqf
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt2hqpPPQd
Before I know what I'm doing, I walk straight into the bathroom.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BkwZnG9CV
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ3bUK8x4a
"Ah!" she shouts in surprise, completely naked, under the shower.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVhPu8OlFN
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbMoiK5egg
"I had a memory of you, and you're fucking hot," I say struggling to keep my eyes on her face after eye-fucking her body for about two seconds.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqQElSyJNu
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBqPZlI7h6
"You what? What did you remember?"713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwpHvDMa58
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRuZVZ4MU4
"The first time you made me soup," I say. It may not seem like a major memory to an outsider, but for me, it's a big deal; it's the first step.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5bazBqY44
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6upgpzHiFL
"That's amazing, Caleb, I'm so happy! I'd hug you, but I'm wet, and you're sick."713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTbFQJ8tKJ

713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xc3mmudYw
"Don't worry, you'll say that for me soon enough," I say exiting the bathroom, and even though I'm fucked up, happier than I've been in a long time, because a) I got back my first memory of Evetta, 2) she knows that, and I know that it makes her happy, and 3) I didn't miss the way that her thighs came together when I spoke of making her wet, so I figure that I already have.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDfd9obxzS
