Dreams.

She comes back to life. And she knows. She knows she had been dead for so many years. People took out her body from the grave, and it's still well intact. It's like she wasn't even dead, like it's just that she's had a very long sleep, underground. Her body hasn't been touched by any creatures not a little bit.

She is brought out because one of my siblings (can't remember who) was injured. We need her organ for transplant. 

A few days after that, she wakes up. It's not something anyone expected.

I keep telling her "Ummi, I can't believe you're back here again" and she would say "I know. I couldn't believe it too, it's like all of a sudden I can breathe again". I go to the toilet, then we go home together.

And then it is summer, we go to Italy, with my dad, going hiking. I bump into someone, he's there with his friends. I asked "would you mind if we join you?" He said "okay fine just pay €200 for the fees" so my dad paid.

Before starting, I have to get prepared. Once all of us are ready, I thought I left something in my bag and I need to pee. 

Ummi ask "Are you sure you can find your own way?" Me "Yes Ummi I've been to the toilet before"

Then I got lost, for a few hours I keep going around the same place, then I realize there's a Keeny Rogers and KFC in the hospital which was just beside my college. Another guy friend of mine works at the KFC. I ask around for the way to go back to the place I left.

I bump into my British Council mates, I bump into Angel,  it was a beautiful brief meetup. I bump into a group of naughty boys who think I'm a city girl who knows no shit about life. But I just left, they're not worth the fight.

After forever, I'm back at the place but it was almost empty. I approached the guy at the counter,

"Hey you, your mom was looking for you. She said she will call you"

But I lost my phone, how would she call me?

"Can I borrow your phone to call my mom?"

"Yes, of course"

But I don't know her new Italy number, how would I call her?

"Are you good at reading maps? Maybe you can try to find her in the forest?"

"I'm not good in directions, at all. And I don't have a cellphone I would just be more lost than I already am"

Then my very handsome crush back when I was in form 2 but he was in form 1 comes out from somewhere with a bunch of other friends. I'm relieved to see him maybe he could help.

"Hey. I lost my parents. Can I use your phone to call my parents?"

"Yes of course"

Instead of giving me his phone, he takes out a huge box of matches, giving me one. But again I realize,

"But I don't have her number. You don't too. It's okay, thanks anyway. You're leaving now?" I say that while returning him the match stick he gave me.

"Yes we're leaving, gotta go back to school. You can keep that, might be useful someday." He smile then he left.

The end.

Ummi, I wanna go with you.
