Moment with God (Book 2 of With God Trilogy)

IV

I was walking with Ooi and his parents back to their car. Ooi was crying while hugging his Mum as Pops open the door. Mum sat beside Pops and as Ooi sat down, I bent down to sit too but something transported to another place. Another house. A different one.

"Where are they?" I thought. "Did I come here before them?" I was thinking about the family. I looked at the house and I can tell it was not their house. Suddenly, I heard a noise coming from a vehicle that was coming. The car parked at the garage of this home.

A man opened the car door in front of me and shouted. "You kid!" The angry man shouts and after a minute of breathing in and breathing out, he went to the other side of the car and pulled a guy. The guy, his head lowered, was defenseless. I can say that the man was going to hit the guy with his knuckles, so I tried to protect the man by pushing the man. But again, I was a spirit who passes by their bodies and I was so afraid to see for the first time, a real boxing match with the other guy not doing anything to protect himself. The man raised his arm and was about to punch.

"Lord! Help!" I cried as fast as I could. A woman, all of a sudden came to the man and stopped him. "Thank you, Lord!" I breathed out. At least I know that this man can have a breather first. But what happened? I followed them to inside to know what can be the reason this crazy man is about to punch the guy.

"Can you please stay calm, honey?" The woman rubbed the man's back. "Can you speak for yourself?" The woman asked the guy who was about to take a seat.

"Mom, I'm so tired for this." The guy, who was about my age, said. "I just want to rest for a while, please." He closed his eyes, stood up, and went upstairs. The man whom I think is his dad, just let him go. I went upstairs and I saw him lying on the bed, looking really exhausted. He grabbed something under his bed. He looked at it, cried, and threw it out the window. I did not see what is was but from the outside of his room, it looked like a rectangle shaped object. That just what I saw because after that, he locked up the door.

I peeped from above. His parents were talking but after a few minutes, I think they were arguing. I could hear them shout at each other. Hearing this gave me a headache. I think of the times my own parents look exactly like this. They were like this, really. And I hate it.

I covered my ears as what I was doing when mom and dad argue. When I opened my eyes, I saw myself outside. Did I teleport myself? Well, thank you because I'm out of there. I was already happy only to hear them again but in this time, in a lowered volume. I realized I am still here but only outside. They were still at the house. My gaze suddenly went up but before it went to the sky, I saw the guy's window in his bedroom, opened.

I am just so tired to see these scenes anymore and I asked God if He could bring me to another place. Nothing happened. I called on to whoever listens to me right now, or my transporter to another place, if you can hear me, please I want to go away. I closed my eyes and opened it but nothing happened. Ohhhhh! There is no way. I have to wait for the right time for me to go to another place. But I cannot wait anymore so I walked to go to another place myself.

While walking, I stepped on something. I looked down and saw it was the rectangle object that the guy threw a while ago. I picked it up only to see that it was a canvas. With a painting of a man who wore a Navy uniform.

He was handsomely smiling but after a second of lightning, I dropped the painting. I was shocked about something familar. I have seen him before. I hope I was wrong. I picked up the painting and tried to study the features.

Is it him? 

But why?

Why does he look like dad??!
