DREAMS

 "Vern, let's go!" Let's go Vern"  I heard my best friend calling me so many times. I woke up right away. It was past 5:30 am. I usually woke up at very early morning at about 4 am or before 5 am. Past 5 am is quite late. The one who visits me was the best of friend of mine who (had leukemia) passed away in 1995.  Let's call her C. She was always in my dream. We're the best of friends from High School until when we were in University. I took Economics Course in Univ. and she took Engineering instead in the same University (She was a genius when it comes to Math and Physics), but we always go and come home at the same time. She was always in my dreams, sometimes she was accompanied by my dearest Lola in those two dreams. 

The Story in my dream: I went to visit her in their house but she was doing housework. I waited but she had too many chores to do. So I told her I will just wait at home. But then the waiting takes too long and I brought a box of newspapers and magazines to read near my neighbor's. While I was reading the newspaper, she came all dressed up and called me, "Vern let's go!" Let's go Vern!" 

In the real world, actually one of us will go to each other's home and wait. When we're in High School, have to wait for her so that we can be together walk to school at the same time. We're classmates. When we enrolled in FEU, we wanted to be together but she would rather enrolled in Engineering. But she had our schedule the same time so that we can ride in the same bus and go to Univ. same time and come home same time too. We just parted ways in different building and different rooms. 

The last chance we had a communication before she passed away when she said that she applied for an immigrant in the US (California) that was before 1994. That was our last communication. I never thought she will be taken by our Lord God too early. She was such a good friend, loyal, honest and kind and very smart most especially in Math and Physics.  She's athletic, she was our volleyball player in HS & she was also a MEDIC just like me in our CAT (Citizen Army Training).  We have the same talent for drawing and calligraphy. I missed her or she missed me too somehow because she always appeared in my dreams. Maybe there was "another world?"  Where all the people who passed away are living in harmony and in peace. In two of my dreams she was with my Lola and they were living in the same roof, their home is surrounded with vegetation, fruit orchards and its almost like paradise in those dreams. They were so happy. 

They were so happy in those dreams.
