Still Waiting

I hold the blue bowl as I pour some cereal into it. I grab the milk jug from the fridge and I pour some milk into the cereal. I take the bowl with me and I sit down to eat.  I almost finish the bowl when I hear faint groans comin' from the couch. I get up and walk towards Noodle to see her groanin' with a hand on her head. I notice that she also looks a little green.


"Are you okay, luv?", I ask. "Uhhh... What happened? Why am I-", she starts until her cheeks bulge up and she hold a hand on her mouth. She gets up and rushes up the stairs takin' two steps at a time. I hear her open the door to the restroom. Since I already know what's happenin' to her, I quickly grab a cup, fill it up with water, and carefully walk up the stairs to the restroom to see Noodle blowin' chunks in the toilet. I place the cup on the sink and I help Noodle. Although her hair isn't very long, I still held it from her face just in case.


"Kore wa hijō ni fukai ni kanjiru", I hear Noodle quickly mutter, although I don't understand what she had just said. "Are you feelin' better? Here, rinse your mouth.", I say as I help her towards the sink. She turns on the faucet and cups her hands to fill them up with water. She brings it to her mouth, rinses, and spits the water. I grab the cup and hand it to her. She looks inside the cup and starts drinkin'.


"Are you okay?", I ask once more while turnin' the faucet back off. She stops drinkin' and takes a gasp of air. "Yes, I feel better now", she replies. "Do you remember what happened earlier?", I ask, hopin' that she doesn't remember the kitchen incident. "No, I don't. That last thing I remember is that I was in Murdoc's room an-", she cuts of. Then, a look of slight disgust shows on her face. "Well, what do you care?", she says softly while stormin' out of the restroom. I could tell that she didn't want to mention herself drinkin'. I walk out of the restroom to see Noodle enterin' her room. Well, since that's over, I may as well continue practicin' El Mañana.


As I walk towards my room I hear Noodle playin' her guitar. I continue walkin' to my room where I grab the keyboard that I'm practicin' with. I change the mode to "grand piano", and I start practicin'.
