They both jump into the vehical and stare at each other . He shakes his head as he put the key in the ignition and Dawn asks him " what? Why you shaking your head, did I do something wrong "
He lets out a smirk " no ma, you didn't do anything  just my mom who died giving birth me Is here with me right now , like I don't even know how or what to ask you , like what do I do mom? "
She smiles and giggles a little..
" Son I'm all ears, if i know the answer I will blurt it out, i have nothing to hide"
He drops his hands to his knees, turns towards her and sighs
I guess this is long over due . He leans over to hug her , wrapping his arms around her neck. And just hugs her tightly as he can.
She hugs him back.
He lets out a soft tear of relief like this is something he hungered for all his life . Finally being able to meet you, talk to you and answering so many questions  and your here finally with me!
Words start blurting from his mouth.
What was it like when you first met dad?
What was heaven like?
Is there a heaven?
Is it wonderful,like they say?
Have you been watching me my whole life?
What about dad?
He stumbles into the hard questions to ask her as it brings tears to his eyes saying them!
   Did you have to choose between living or me? Or was it you was already dying & it just happened?
  She blinks multiple times ,looks back and forth "son I just want you to know all choices that was made,was out of my control ,I had no control over it .it sort of just happened so fast and I really don't remember what happened after I gave birth to you of course  ,my body was there but not my soul or mind ,it was like I was in a different dimension where everything I loved and wished for was there" Dawn says in a pause.
John looked at Dawn the woman who gave birth to him ,who gave him life and he didn't get a chance to learn her,meet her or even love her. He takes a deep breath. Sighs as he lets out the air in his lungs. He sticks the key into the ignition. He take off from his parking spot and starts 2 drive ... Nothing but silence fills the air until the vehical sets a halt at a light green house, plenty of yard for the kids , the grandkids,the furr babies to play in. Dawn looks around her and sees the road sign as she still feels lost as before.. Meadowbrook Lane in bold letters .John was so exited that he tried gettin out the motor vehicle without being unbuckled . As he took and  knocked back  
He let out a soft breath ,and got his hair out of his face and he unbuckles stand up ,fixing his clothes to get the wrinkles at as he looks over he sees Dawn his mother stand up and I'm that moment his heart starts to flutter with heart palpitations . He looks at her and every thought of idea that went through his head when he knocked at that door his dad was behind . What would he think ,how would he feel,how would his wife feel there are so many diff obligations of how this would play out and was hoping for at least a difference. Next thing he knows he knocking on the door. His mom looks at him as he comes out of his stargazed visions happening in his skull.  The door knob turns and stands a woman with long black straight hair her eyes a light brown color ,shimmering in the night light from the porch ,she's drying her hands off with kitchen towel . She looks at john then sees the woman next to him ,she squinted at her ,trying to remember where she seen her from because she looks awfully familiar with the thoughts running around like a mouse following the cheese rolling away. 
Then a man with a tall stature ,heavy built pulls into the drive behind him ,he pays no attention to the people on. His porch he grabs his bag and starts walking up to the door ,looking through his face like he does every time. He happens to look up as he takes a step up and now he face to face with his old beauty from the past that has his heart.... He looks into her eyes as she looks directly back at him... Hello Travis to you too. He drops his bag and his phone  . Travis' face turns white  ,he takes a look at her,takes a look at his car ...wait... Did I die? Is this heaven.  Then looks at his wife..  this...this is not how I planned this.. thought it be more peaceful.
Dawn gives sorta a straight face
This is real Travis, sorry you haven't had the pleasure of dying yet. She giggles sarcasticly.
Well shit bo jingles  is you a zombie.? How the hell are you here? It's been years, he looks at john. What the hell did you do? Please tell me you didn't make a deal! 
John looks at his dad no sir I did not , this was not my doing. I fainted almost when she showed up at my door.
