Journey to the heavens

Chapter 4: Journey To The Heavens

I came home, took my dress off, makeup off and myself into a nice soothing bath. Ahh! This is the best. Its 2:00 now. I need sleep. So I got out of the bath, put my PJs on and headed to my bed and slept. I woke up at 11:00. I haven't slept that long in ages!

When I woke up I brushed my teeth, went downstairs and turned the kettle on. I heard keys on the door. Who can that possibly be? It was dad!

"DAD! YOU'RE HOME EARLY! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" I screamed as I jumped on him.

I saw his eyes were all red.

"Dad where is mum?" I added.

"I'm sorry darling, so sorry, but mum is on her way to heaven." He claimed sorrowfully.

"M-m-um is d-dead?" I established.

He nodded his head, I ran to him and we were both crying on each others shoulder.

After 5 minutes I ran to my room, locked the door and screamed the house down. I couldn't believe it. She brought me into this world and I was so mean to her. I didn't listen to what she said, I talked back, I used to swear at her and the list goes on. I never knew this day would come. Well I did but I didn't expect it to come so soon. I kept crying. I didn't know how and when she died. I don't want to know!

I opened the door and ran into the dark attic, absorbing all the memories. Light was coming from outside.

I went up the stale stairs, looked around, trying to find something that meant a lot to my family. Our family photo album. I looked through the pages. There were about 900 pictures from the minute I was born till last month. Me and mum, having a waterfight when I was about 5. Us three eating out when I was 6. But the picture that really got to me was of me as a new born baby and my mum. She held me so close to her, she kissed my forehead, a tear coming down, her smiling and I'm looking at her. I will cherish this picture for the rest of my life. I ran out of the attic and went into her room. I opened her wardrobe. Held her wedding dress really close to me, tearing, I smelt her scent from the wedding dress, I couldn't stop crying. I will be wearing this one day.

I collapsed onto the floor.

I screamed so loud while crying.

"MUM! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO LEAVE US!" I shouted looking up at the ceiling while tears were streaming down my face.

"MUM!!! PLEASE!!! I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU MUM! I'M SO SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I DID MUM! I WANT YOU BACK!!! PLEEASE!! COME BACK!! I NEED YOU!!!"

I lay on the floor crying to myself for a few minutes.

"Mum, I know you are watching over me, I know you will guide me." I said looking to the sky.

I stopped crying. I was normal. Dad went to the grocers. I'm glad he wasn't here. I had to let the sadness out.

I heard knocking on the door. I went downstairs. It was Alana.

"Zara, I'm so sorry." She said as she ran to me. We hugged each other. I couldn't help but cry on her shoulder.

"Oh my god, Zara it's okay, I'm here for you and always will be. Oh no, please don't! She will be remembered." She said as we clutched on to each other.

"Where's your dad?" She asked.

"In the grocers." I whispered sorrowfully.

"Right, listen, I've got a dentist appointment. I don't know if I should leave you." She said.

"Go." I replied.

"Are you sure?" She wondered.

"Just go." I reassured.
