F-f-f-fever!

It had started with a simple stomachache and at first… and had grown into Priscilla throwing up and then later dry heaving as anxiety gripped her. She had grown feverish, heading back to the den as other members of her family had left for the meeting. Little did the girl know the blah feelings she’d been having was also a sickness setting in. Not even talking with her uncle, finding out that things weren’t her fault, could have saved her from the flu-like illness that had set in. She wasn’t sure why, but she was feeling progressively worse as she kept curled up in the den.
The meeting was probably over… but Priscilla still didn't move. She didn’t want to call for anyone… they were probably discussing whatever had happened there. She felt guilty for not going… but her body was too hot, her mind feeling like it was swimming with fog. The child whimpered, curling tighter into a ball in the darkness. ‘Why… why do I feel so bad…?’ Priscilla wondered, sniffling. Her nose was getting stuffy too, making it harder to breathe. Was her uncle going to be mad at her for not going?
A cough escaped Priscilla next. Though it was cold outside she felt like she was burning up… Priscilla curled towards the wall of the den, hoping that the cooler earth might help ease the heat running through her body.
