A Beluga's Song: Chapter 3: What To Do?

Soon, however, the excitement over the musical fades as a bigger worry begins to cross everyone’s minds. A never-before-heard-of sickness is spreading, and no one can find a cure. Fortunately, no one in Glowhump’s family has caught it, but poor Shimmerfin is currently at the hospital as one of the first to fall ill. Doctors everywhere are in a fluster, hospitals are overflowing, and Glowhump’s parents have banned her and her sister from contact with other children. Glowhump does not approve of this measure, because she hates feeling so contained, and sincerely hopes the doctors find a cure soon so she can go out and play again. She passes the time by making up short songs and practicing her lines for the play, even though she very much doubts that she will be allowed to perform. If only someone would find a cure soon, please, please, please!
