andrea laid on the couch, the soft orange glow of the sunset flooding through the windows as she clicked through programs. she coughed slightly when she sat up, her black hair falling over her eyes. she reached for her tea. she'd been sick for almost three days now, and it was miserable. at least she had her cats to keep her company. mitzi brushed up against her legs, jumping up onto the couch with a meow. normandy was asleep at the top of the cat tree, soaking up the sunlight. the last one, perico, climbed up on the mantle.

she coughed, looking around for her medicine. being sick always sucked. she'd never liked it- even when she'd been able to miss school because of a cold. she would've much preferred taking an exam or having to stay late at work. she sighed as mitzi settled down on her lap. it wasn't like she'd move, either way.
