Excerpt

"Kass, what's going on?" I heard Josh's drowsy voice from somewhere behind me.

I couldn't even turn around to give him a decent answer before I started hurling again.

"Shit, Kass." He was next to me in a second, holding me from behind and making sure to get my hair out of the way.

Pink vomit covered the inside of my white porcelain toilet, and all I could think about was how much this would upset my grandmother.

I'd woken up what felt like ages ago. My stomach was completely upset, and I knew vomiting was inevitable. Unfortunately for me, my babushka was sleeping tranquilly next to me. I didn't have it in my heart to wake her up-not just to tell her how sick I felt. Not with the noises I knew would be coming from my bathroom. I'd eventually wake her up, only for her to find me turning my stomach inside-out. I decided I had to leave my room and go to the guest restroom on the farthest side of my living room.

During my very long walk there, I accomplished the herculean feat of not throwing up on my wooden floor or creamy carpet. I didn't even notice Josh sleeping on the couch; he could've helped me get there sooner. Then again, my intentions while almost crawling my way across my apartment were to not disturb my grandma's sleep, which in a way included not disturbing anyone else's.

"Are you done?" Josh asked as soon as he saw that my heaving stopped for a few minutes.

"I hope so."

"Stay here," he said. As if I could move anywhere else. He returned quickly, accompanied by a warm, humid cloth and a glass of fresh water.

I couldn't express my gratitude enough.

Josh sat on the floor next to me. "Why didn't you let me know you were this sick?" he asked.

I could understand his confusion. If he was ill, I would expect him to tell me so I could help take care of him. It would have made a lot more sense if I'd used my own bathroom. "I didn't want bahba to know I was sick," I confessed. "And I totally forgot that you spent the night."

He grunted his disapproval and demanded, "Are you ready to go back to bed?"

"Not really." That only made him grunt again. "I'd rather go with you to the couch, if that's okay."

"Totally fine." While his words were a bit cold and cutting, his touch felt warm and caring. Josh carried me back to the couch with him. I rested in his lap for a little while and relaxed back to sleep.

What felt like seconds later, I felt movement underneath me. I opened my eyes and stirred a bit before I heard Josh's soft whisper. "I think your grandma woke up. I just want to put my pants back on."

I mumbled an okay and sat up straight. If my grandmother was coming out of my bedroom any minute, I needed to look as healthy and awake as possible.

A few moments later, Josh had managed to clean up the living room-and possibly the restroom-place some tea in the pot, and get ready for the day. I imagined he and my grandma had to leave sometime soon. I guessed I could fend for myself. I was almost sure the worst was over.

"Good morning," Babushka said as she came out of my bedroom looking well-rested.

"Good morning," Josh and I answered almost simultaneously.

"Glad to see you're doing better, Kassandra." After all that vomiting, I'd probably lost some weight, too. "It was good to stay with you and help you recover."

"Would you like some tea, Babushka?" Josh asked the old lady.

She approached the teapot and said, "It's only chamomile tea, but I guess it'll do. Do you need me to fix some breakfast before I go?"

"I took the liberty of boiling some eggs for Kassandra as soon as she's ready for them." Eggs were probably the last thing I wanted to eat at the moment. "A friend of mine will be here any minute with sour bread from the bakery in case either one of you want some." Bread sounded more appealing-or saltines. I thought I had some in one of my cabinets.

"Eggs for me. Kassandra, do you want some?" my grandmother asked.

"Tea is fine, thank you."

"Good. If you get hungry, Josh has managed to prepare a half-decent breakfast," she said. "I guess that since you're sick, there isn't much else that might be good for you." Grandma fixed her egg with some mayonnaise and paprika. Their interaction was a nice distraction from how horrible I felt. Somehow, I'd managed to convince my grandmother I was doing much better, and she concentrated her attention on my boyfriend. Her gaze constantly followed his movements, probably contemplating the ease with which he moved around my place. Josh's eyes constantly returned to me, searching my face, his composure oddly rigid. But it wasn't because he felt uncomfortable under my grandma's eye; he kept looking at me, as if he wanted to ask some question-that was, when babushka wasn't talking to him.

"Josh, can I cook something for you?" she asked.

"I'm doing fine with my coffee, Babushka. Thank you."

It didn't take her long to finish her light breakfast and comment, "It seems there's nothing much for me to do. I better call a cab so I can get back to your dzed."

"I would offer to take you, but I'd rather stay with Kass for the rest of the morning," Josh said. "But I'm sure my friend Mindy will be happy to take you home. She's the one bringing us the bread."

"Oh, nonsense. I wouldn't want to impose," the stubborn old lady answered.

"Really, babushka, please. It will make Kass and me feel better," Josh explained, "Besides, Mindy loves driving and today she's driving my car. You would be doing her a favor."

"Well, if it's a favor for this girl, then I accept."

Josh stepped into the hall outside my apartment, probably to call Mindy and inform her of the new task she'd been given. Not so long ago, I'd been really jealous of this Mindy character. She was one of the most beautiful twiggy blonds I'd ever met, and during Laura's wedding preparations, I'd noticed that she was always hanging around Josh. He later explained that she was actually his PA. I felt a little embarrassed after learning about their relationship, although I still kept my eyes open in case she decided to make a move on her boss.

My grandmother approached me. I hadn't moved from the couch since Josh had helped me there. "He's a good man," she said. "Your Dzyedooshka should meet him. Soon." She patted my leg and kissed my cheek. "Bring Josh home soon."

"Mindy's downstairs waiting for you, Babushka," Josh announced. "Let me walk you to the car."

We said our farewells and my grandma made me promise that I would call her that night to let her know how I was doing. I would agree to anything in that moment just to get her to leave. I could feel the dizziness and nausea coming back at me. I could do with Josh leaving, too. I was alarmingly embarrassed given he had witnessed me vomit over and over again in the night.

As soon as they left, I rushed to the bathroom inside my bedroom. Kneeling before the porcelain toilet, I heaved and heaved, leaving only water and tea. I wondered then what I could have done to deserve something like that. Where and how could I have gotten this sick?

Josh was soon with me again, hovering over me and making sure I was all right. I insisted he go home, but he wouldn't listen. He stayed with me all day, taking care of me as if I was a baby. He fed me when I decided I was going to try and eat something. Saltines and sour bread with some butter was the only thing I could keep down. He helped me shower and put me to bed, too. Our day was spent between trips to the restroom, showering, and sleeping. We didn't talk much. Josh had been extremely sweet by staying and taking care of me. Thankfully, my stomach's antics had stopped at some point around noon.

Later that night, I remembered I'd promised to call my grandmother, and I shamelessly told her I felt much better. When we were finally in bed, Josh hugged me tenderly from behind. He kissed my bare shoulder and told me as I was falling asleep, "I may have managed to knock you up."

That comment was enough to keep me awake for most of the night.
