Unfinished Business

...and suddenly there was I, in the middle of the road. Stunned. Can't move my feet to the direction of the sidewalk to not get hit. Then I blacked down.

It was a headlight hanging above me, Im quite sure, swaying back and forth. I can sense  it, cant see it nor hear the creeking sound of the swaying, I was lying on my back facing that light. My instinct tells me not to move, stay still. My eyes are still closed but the light overhead seeps through my closed eyelids, sending signals to my brain that I was in some place.

Earlier before the sun was up, I was excited. This is the day I will tell her. Tell her about the feelings I so kept hidden for months, maybe a year? I forgot counting the days because it is immaterial compared to the significance of this day. This is the day, so to speak.

So I went to my routine. Cleaned up, dressed up. An extra feel of happiness surrounds me. A halo of inspiration is invisibly hung above my head. I've taken my breakfast, drank my milk and off to school.

It was a good day, school went fast and I didn't even noticed the time. All that mattered is I will tell her, today, not tomorrow but today. So who is this "her" I am referring about? You'll know.

My body aches as I tried to move to my side. I call "mama" in a voice I could hardly mutter. No one answered. It was too silent. Or was I just deaf? I tried to forcefully open my eyes, and all I can see is a blur. Is this heaven? It couldn't be. Heaven they say is full of happiness, laughter and angels. I don't hear nor see angels. Definitely I am not in a happy state, I am in a state of pain though I feel so numb to know if I was in pain.
