Whatever it was that Ross saw in his email, was not as important, as, what happened right after he saw it.
Ross started coughing, throwing up, and feeling like his head was weighed down like an anvil.
Then, Ross slumped to the floor, and yelled. "Vic, I'm not feeling well, please come quick!"
Vic came running into Ross's office in stunned horror. "Ross, Oh My God! Let me help you up!" Vic said, putting Ross into Ross's chair, and giving Ross water.
Ross sat there coughing, but did not throw up again. "Vic, I would do it, but I cant. Please get a mask and gloves, and clean that up., Then, please call me a nurse, I think I have to get out of here" Ross said.
Vic donned a mask and gloves, cleaned up the mess, gave Ross an iced tea, which Ross sipped. Then, Ross called the nursing company. "This is Ross C. I need a nurse at my office as soon as possible. I feel sick"
"Of course Ross, someone will be right over" The nursing head said.
Ross reached into his pocket, and gave Vic a $100 bill. "Thanks for the help, Vic. There will be more where that came from. I dont have that much cash on me" Ross said.
"Ross, that is very generous. Thank You. I'm very concerned about you" Vic said.
"I thought I was feeling better, damnit. I guess I might as well go home so the Teacher can tell me how horrible I am. I know one thing, I cant stay here. It is probably a migraine. I didn't eat much for breakfast at all. Just had a bagel, tea, and my meds" Ross said.
The nurse came, and helped Ross up. "I guess you have to take me home. Vic, please , if anyone calls, I'm just unavailable to talk. I will call you later, and let you know what to say on the answering machine" Ross said.
"Just feel better, Ross. Do not worry about that" Vic said.
The nurse and Ross got into an Uber, and the nurse took Ross home. She slowly undressed him to his Boxer shorts, gave him a calming med, and Ross was able to pass out.
"Nurse White, please give me my phone. I need to call my wife so she can yell at me" Ross said.
"Of course, Ross" The nurse said, handing Ross his phone.
Ross hit Kayley's number, and Kayley was about to start a class. "Just about to teach. Are you okay?"
"Er, not okay, teacher. I was in the office, started coughing, threw up, fell to the floor. Vic picked me up, I called a nurse, and I'm home. Its probably a migraine. Luckily I did not pass out" Ross said.
"Let me see if I can get out of here by lunchtime, will text you and let you know" Kayley said.,
"Okay, will be here. Not going anywhere:" Ross said,.
Ross drifted off to sleep. Kayley finished that class, and asked permission to leave at lunch because her husband was very sick. The principal understood, and said yes. At lunch, Kayley dashed out of school, onto the subway, and appeared at home.
"You are a pain in my ass, mister" Kayley said.
"Er, I have not done anything. Remember which one of us has been moody lately for personal reasons that I wont get into with the nurse here. Please either be nice, or leave me alone" Ross said quietly.
"Sorry, what happened?" Kayley asked.
"Got to the office, felt dizzy, fell down, threw up, Vic had to pick me up off the ground, call the nursing company. I was taken home, and here I am" Ross said.
"How do you feel?" Kayley asked.
"Head hurts a bit,. coughing some, a bit sick to my stomach" Ross said.
"Its probably either a migraine or a virus , Kayley" the nurse said.
"Okay, well, see how you feel later. If you are not better tomorrow, I am calling Doctors. Nurse White, might you stay the right?" Kayley asked.
"You can call me Roberta. If the company says so, I can stay the night" Roberta said.
Kayley called the company, explained Ross;'s situation, Roberta confirmed what Kayley said, and then Kayley gave Roberta a nightie.
"This man has been giving me a lot of trouble lately. I will show you where our guest room is, Roberta. Any food you want, is yours. I will sleep on a cot, and if we need you, we will tell you" Kayley said.
"Okay, I hope you feel better, Ross" Roberta said.
Kayley wheeled a cot into the bedroom, closed the door, and undressed.
"What is with the cot?" Ross asked.
"You are sick, Mister. You might have cooties. I dont know. I have a feeling that an anvil is about to hit us" Kayley said.
"Thanks for the support, partner. I probably have a cold, migraine or stomach virus" Ross said.
Kayley made a sandwich for herself, gave Ross a bagel and tea to take his meds, and then both fell asleep.
It seemed like the world was crashing down. First Kayley's mood due to her menopause, now Ross was sick again.
Ross was so fed up, that he lied in bed staring at the ceiling, and was thinking about retiring.
The thought crossed his mind for a minute, and then went out.
Falls from Ross, Kayley's moody menopause, now Ross falls again, and if Ross did go to work, trouble was bound to hit.
It was all like a puzzle disorganized and the pieces had to be placed.
What would happen?
That would all be seen.
