“Go away,” I told the bright figures who came to comfort me. “My mom is sick, and she might die. I don’t want to play with you! Just leave me alone.” In frustration, I began pushing the bright figures away as I became more fixated by my mother’s suffering.
“I said, leave me alone,” I shouted.
“Who are you yelling at?” asked my mother.
“Oh, no one, Ma. Can I ask you a question?”
“Any time, honey,” she said.
“Well, I sometimes see bright glowing people.”
“Oh, you mean angels,” she said.
“Angels,” I said in a confused tone.
“Yes, honey, God’s helpers, I call them. Don’t worry; I have seen them time to time in my life as well. They won’t hurt you, honey. God sends them to protect us.”
“Protect us,” I thought to myself, but from what? All I knew is that they weren’t protecting me from the students that were hurting me.
“Ok, Ma,” I said. Seeing her so happy and confident was enough for me to not ask for more explanation. I just wanted her to be well. I always went to bed quickly when I sensed that my mother had a good night of health, but waking up startled isn’t fun, let me tell you.
“Why are you standing at the end of my bed? Is it because I won’t play with you?” The bright glowing figure just stood there not paying much attention to me as he appeared to have been just standing watch. “Fine,” I said throwing the blankets over my head. “If you’re not gonna talk, then leave.” When I removed the blanket from my head, the glowing figure was gone.
