Brain Drained Ami
It was unusual for Ami to be sick, she would have kept going as much as she can at Keio hoping to get her medical degree. Yet she was in no state to come to the university as she was bed ridden. She was struggling to breath but managed to do so. Her mind was literally mush and her brain, her large brain didn't seem to be working and could feel her brain cells dying as both sides of her grey matter were aching. It was absolutely exhausted. Last night she called Usagi Minako and vice versa as she was confused which blonde was which. She's worried that she's developing some nasty disease whether it was dementia or something else and to get that at her age was heartbreaking... Really heartbreaking like she didn't have the will to live...
Wearing her iconic earthy clothes, Makoto opened the door and looked at her. She was just as upset as Ami seeing her in her state with the light shaking and the drained look on her face, looking at her blue hair it was even going grey. Again something that shouldn't happen at her age, unless you are Usagi.
Makoto sulked, "Ohh... Ami... Just for you, I'm staying at home today."
"You have to work at the...", Ami paused as her head was confused, "flo.. flower... Flower shop..."
Makoto shook her head, she didn't want Ami being poorly. As much as she enjoys working at the flower shop, she prefers to see the company of her best friend by her side. It was upsetting as Makoto struggled to cry, Ami wasn't like this in the past. Just a few months ago, Ami smiled as she was finally accepted to attend the university and she had help, from former student Mamoru. Then after the first two weeks, she started having head pains. Head pains that she didn't have before. Then had fluttery moments where she didn't know what was going off, events blurred by with the inability to recall them. Memory was also an issue. The blue haired woman had researched to at least 2 AM regarding her university work, so much to learn but so little time. It also didn't help that she was pressured to do the course within a year instead of the typical five years that it takes before Ami could be a junior doctor.
Ami had been taking Amitriptyline tablets once a night hoping for the pain to go, she smiled as the tablets had her name and on top of which, were in light blue. While the screaming was dying down, she was still in pain. It wasn't constant but still happened even a month into her course. She also had to take Vitamin D tablets as when she had her blood test, it was critically low.
"I can go to work tomorrow, you're more important to me."
With a muted smile, Ami nodded. She loved Makoto so much, she was there for her from reminding her to take her tablets before she went to bed to making her meals with even trying to boost her lacking of Vitamin D. With a sniff, Makoto kissed her forehead and stroked her cheeks hoping somehow and someway Ami would get better.
"After breakfast, you can play on one of my consoles if you want to keep your cutey head working", softly smiled Makoto as she looked at her poorly friend, "I love you Ami."
"I love you too Mako-chan", weakly smiled Ami as she just about able to remember her name.
