The Dream 10/16/09
It took place in grandma house. I was sitting in the white chair in the living
room no tv was on and it seem like mid day but the curtains where closed and
the room was bright, and not light bright; but just beautifully lite like the
heavens was shining down on the room. And papi was standing in the door
way in between the kitchen and living room with his back facing the living room
and me. He was dressed in a white dress shirt, with black dress pants, with his
hair slicked back and his glasses on. He called me by my first name and I
knew he was in the room. As I got up and ran over to him he turned around
and said while taking my hands in his hands "NGoubdo I can't do this anymore
don't tell grandma, I have to go this is what you do everyone of you will
receive 15" then I replied with a huge and big tears "papi I love you, I don't
want you to go". As we were hugging and I was holding him as I walked him to
the couch because he was tried and weak. Then I laid him down on the couch
he continues on "my heart is weak and I'm tried this is what I want you to do,
each one of will receive...." Still holding him in my arms as I place him
comfortably on the couch I say "hold on and let him go and...” And in that spilt
second he cries out "No don't go anywhere, don't leave me...”. Then I said with
tears in my eyes "I'm not going anywhere" after I turned to get the pen and
paper to write the instructions, I turned back around then he wraps his arms
around me and I start writing.
