The journey to Seattle looks very sad. A road so lonely I went through. The pine trees beside the road became my sight. The trip to my uncle's residence has not been pleasant since my parents died in a car accident. It was raining heavily I saw my mother and father just sitting unconscious when our car hit a big tree. After that I don't remember anymore.
Everything has changed since the tragedy. At least I had to be seen smiling so that uncle wouldn't worry, although the shadow of the tragedy still haunts my mind, now all that remains is a little doll given by my father when I was five years old. looks a little worn and a lot of stitches.
Where am I headed now?
I was confused as to what to answer. I'm too tired to see everything in this world after five months. Between reality and dreams. My mind is drained. I passed through a narrow passageway, there were two lanes. The left one reads ‘next life’ and the one on the right reads ‘live your new destiny?. It's a tough choice. So I decided to live my life with a new destiny. Death took away my parents, now I'm alone. Now everything is no longer as it used to be.
I lost my memory of the little things in my life. I forgot where I last played. I forgot my parents' names, I forgot my childhood friend. And I even forgot who I really was. There was nothing I remembered after the accident.all I remember was who took my hand at the time of the tragedy, someone who was my age. That's all I remember.
In the car, there was only me. I like this situation. Very quiet and comfortable. I chose to sleep for a while. While trying to sleep occasionally looking at my palm. Scar exposed to broken glass car. I tried to close my eyes. Suddenly a piece of the good times with my parents began to reoccur, I shed tears. Why did this have to happen, why did God have to take away my parents. This is so unfair.
The car turned, entering a home yard on north seattle street. Connor's House. The house looks great with a Mediterranean accent there is a mixture of gothic styles. Connor stood up to greet me.
‘WELCOME.’ Welcome writing is above the main door of the house.
“good our master until” said the private driver.
“long time no see my niece!. Go, in! Definitely tired after a long trip from colorado,” take him friendly.
I'm staring around. A large tree growing in the yard. Underneath it was a long bench. The bench is very dirty. There were a few leaves scattered on the base.nothing cleaned it, like no one occupied it for a year. Then I turned up. The sky looks cloudy soon it will rain. The wind had started to blow loudly making the leaves of the tree start to make its distinctive sound.
Connor invited me to look at the room he had provided. Connor's maid brought the suitcase from the trunk of the car. The house looks a little warm making me comfortable to stay here. My room has been neatly arranged in Mediterranean style, I love it. It was like going back to medieval times. Some of my items have also been neatly arranged, everything including my novel collection has also been neatly arranged. I lay my body on a soft bed. Connor.
“how, willson?.You like your room? It used to be just a warehouse.” said connor while sitting next to the bed.
I nodded slowly.It was like going back to childhood, I often played in the warehouse with my father.
“From now on you will stay with uncle here. Seeing your condition after the incident made uncle worried. So uncle decided to get full custody of you Will. Uncle hope you can think of uncle as your father.” connor said casually.
“iya uncle, I will try to behave normally as much as possible. Does uncle live alone in a house this big?” I said, slowly.
Uncle just nodded.
“of course uncle lives alone, but now there you are here. So uncle is not lonely anymore.”
After hearing the word loneliness, I lowered my head. My mother and father's faces were still in my head.
“hey!, why with that face, smile need not be moody like. Uncle knows what it's like to lose the most valuable person to us. Uncle also felt it Will, we are both also in the same position.” Bright Uncle.
I could only be quiet when I heard it.
“And as long as you're here uncle has enrolled you in a school, just calm down the school is not far from here.” Connor
I forgot the last time I went to school. I almost forgot about everything.
“ops! almost forgot, sirius high school is the name of your school” continued uncle connor.
“everything is set, you take it easy. Uncle will take care of you and make sure you all the needs you need uncle has provided. There will be many new things that will make your grief pass quickly.” said uncle connor before I fell asleep.
‘Had slept apparently. Dream beautiful nak’ guman Connor in heart.
The morning has been welcomed, The door of my room was opened by someone. He came with a plate of wheat cake and a glass of warm milk, just like my mother did.
“feel better, will?” ask uncle connor.
“ya little.”
I sighed ”even uncle it was hard to explain. I don't know how I feel. For sure I feel fine now.”
“how does it feel here? Do you feel at home staying here or do you need something else.” connor sitting next to my bed.
I thought for a moment, confused what to say. I try to remember all the previous events in my memory. The incident made me remember exactly who the little boy was. Some memories began to roll back the events of that time
BRUUUG!!!
The glass fragments of the front window of the car smashed into my parents who were in front. I was unconscious in the back. Then, my consciousness recovered because someone woke me up.
“HHHHH,” my sigh
“hey, let's get us out of here.” Answer the mysterious voice.
At that time, all I thought about was getting out of the burning car. Someone grabbed my hand and pulled my body out of the car. Shortly after we left, the car exploded. Then a mysterious person led me into the forest. But something is blocking me. I was like looking at another dimension in the dark of the forest, the man smiled at me and disappeared into the darkness. I tried to get to her But like something was pulling me out of this darkness, my consciousness was gone.
“Hhhhh..”.
Darkened.
I don't feel anything else, everything is white. Then there were the voices of many people vaguely.
“Hey? Willson! You daydreaming son?”
I'm flabbergasted. “Hm?. oh!, I'm not daydreaming, just trying to remember what happened five months ago. Very quickly the incident happened. I don't know how it happened at the time. Someone my age took me into the woods and he just disappeared. Does it look normal or is this the effect of a coma, uncle connor?”
“you're normal, Will. You look fine. Maybe it's just a picture or something from your mind. Did you hit something?.”
I fingered the forehead of the head “maybe you're right my uncle hit something on the head. I'd better have to forget about it so that my mental state recovers with the new environment here.”
“Then, what about someone you told me about? I wonder who he is.” asked uncle connor curiously.
“nothe uncle he just left. Until now it has been a mystery to me.”
Uncle connor nodded slowly
“well, everything will go back to normal, your memory needs recovery after a long coma. Tomorrow I'll take you to a new school. So don't get up late or you'll miss the first day of school, you don't want that to happen right?.”
“school?” much
“ya school, you must continue your delayed education after recovering from coma.”
“all repeated from the beginning again?.”
“I think yes Will, we start from the beginning together. Okay!” connor answered while pointing his thumb.
I didn't expect Uncle Connor to take such good care of me after my parents' death, to the point of fighting for custody. I better not disappoint uncle. My parents really hope that I can continue this life without them. Dad and mom are watching from up there.
“Willson! Let's get down for dinner. Today the main menu is steak.” Connor
“I'll be down uncle! In a moment.”
I put a picture frame on the study table “now I'm with uncle. So you don't have to worry, mom. I'll be fine without you guys.”
