Midnight shenanigans - by Godsgoodness Refe-Okeme

"For the last time, Sierra, your vitals are fine!Honestly, if you weren't my sister I would have kicked you out of this hospital."Caleb sighed, exasperated pushing his spectacles over the bridge of his nose before turning to look at his sister with a tired expression.Sierra stared blankly at the ceiling before speaking "I promise I'm not making it up. My heart..it hurts""And your reports say you are fine. You can pick up your bill at the counter" Caleb answered waving her off."No way. I thought I get a family discount" Sierra said, springing up from the hospital bed."What kind of older brother are you anyway?" "One who is sick of your antics"Sierra slouched over wearing a defeated look"Losing sleep, losing my appetite, and overthinking a lot these days" Sierra listed her symptoms without looking up earning another sigh from Caleb."I'll prescribe some drugs for that, take them regularly, and you will be fine." Caleb said before walking over to his table."There's only one antidote, brother. but it's not an easy reach" Sierra replied gloomy "You know of an antidote, and you came here to trouble me with your charade? On a midnight shift during rush hour?""Oh for heaven's sake Caleb, do I have to spell it out? I'm lovesick!" Sierra yelled back, half- startling Caleb. "Love...lovesick" he asked baffled and Sierra gave a exasperated sigh before flopping back on the bed"It's the only logical explanation""How is that logical, it doesn't even exist""It does too" Sierra turned to him with a frownCaleb cleared his throat before speaking"Care to explain, I mean that's the real reason you're here""Not to sound overdramatic but I don't think my heart belongs to me anymore""That's it. Take your cheesy lines out the door" Caleb said, pulling her off the bed, and she fought back in protest, before collapsing onto the seat next to the door."What's mine lives so far away brother, it's a cruel fate to love so passionately but with the distance, my love cannot be felt...I crave him deeply. All I want to do is to call him out, embrace him, and melt into that comfort just meant for me.I've created so many scenarios that my mind has started wandering and wondering how long until I have the real one.It's like the world is moving so slowly, and time seems not to listen.As the days draw closer, I've grown quite restless and impatient.My yearning just cannot be put into a few words.I crave, and oh, I crave so deeply.To be with the one who makes me feel so much more.A love story even Shakespeare couldn't comprehend""You're sick""I know Caleb..."Sierra whispered."I'm lovesick"
