I hear a cry of a boy. He sounds terrified and scared. From the sounds of his sobs, I think he is not far. So I start running towards him and as I run his screams get louder and clearer.
He's screaming "Mommy, Mommy wake up!!?"
I start to run even faster. He's so close but I can't see him. In the darkness, a sliver of light catches my eye. It's coming from the window of an old shed. I rush to it and peer in. A boy is curled up in a ball on the ground. He's shaking and staring, I look to see what's he's is staring at. I see a young, pretty woman lying on the floor.
She looks peaceful and tranquil. Then I hear a noise. I turn my eyes back to the boy. He was in the same place as before. Then I hear it. The voice is velvet and as soft as a feather.
I can only make out a few words at first; "I ... sorry... I ... can't..." It takes me a minute until I am able to piece it all together. It's the voice of the mother, she's saying,
"I'm sorry I can't stay and watch as you grow up but do not fret cause' I am in heaven with Moon Goddess and I will be waiting here for you, I'm so proud to call you my son and to have had the memories I've had with you but now it is time for me to go, mommy loves you always." Then as suddenly as it had come, the voice fell silent. I looked at the boy. His expression was the same.
Was it possible that he had not hear his own mother's comforting words?
