Chapter 40: Sickness

When Max got home he was reading his book then when it was time for him to eat dinner, he ate it and waited for a while before he went to his room and jumped on the bed and slept off.

Max woke up early in the morning to just so he could get to school in time for what he was going to do today, so he went to Richard room to wake him so he could get ready then Max went to his room to have his bath and when he was done he wore his school uniform that was nicely folded and ironed.

Max(steps out of his room): Richard are you ready to take me to school.

Richard: Yes how about you.

Max: I am ready, let's go.

Max and Richard entered the limo and Richard drove Max to school. When Max came down from the limo, he looked at Richard and said goodbye before entering into his school. Then Max arrived at the assembly and they said something that Max loves to hear and it was that they were doing a soccer game match but it was in two months time and they also said that they will explain in detail tomorrow. When Max went to class he didn't see Moses again and so did Elliot then they got worried then they were thinking that when they get home they will call Moses and ask if anything is wrong with him.

When class started grade 8 learnt a lot of things and they also gave them classwork and homework before some of themm were done teaching. Then breaktime came and Max went to buy some snacks so he could eat it when he got to class. When he got there he started talking to Elliot about Moses.

Max: Moses didn't come to school today again.

Elliot: What do you think happened to him.

Max: I don't know but I will text him when I get home.

Elliot: That's what I was thinking too.

Max: Don't worry I will do it and tell you Tomorrow.

After a little while they rang the bell for break over then different teachers came and taught all of them then when it was time for closing Max stayed at the gate and waited for Richard to get there and when he got there he carried Max home.

When Max got home he picked up his phone and messaged Moses asking him if he was fine then Max waited for him to reply but he didn't. In the evening, Max had his dinner and when he was done he checked his phone to see if Moses replied and he saw that he did.

Moses(message): No I am not fine.

After Max saw the message he became worried and immediately replied.

Max(message): What happened.

Moses(message): I am sick.

Max(message): With what.

Moses(message): Malaria.

Max(message): Sorry to hear that please get well soon.

Moses (message): I will.
