Call 181 : WINDOW SURPRISE

Hello Son,                                    (continue from Call 181)


Friday, March 25



This morning, Mom got up and went to the kitchen. 



Justine had 3 friends who stayed over last night. They had spent the whole day in Sunway Lagoon the day before. Jus would soon tell Mom about an inciDAN that happened at the Lagoon later in the morning. 



Mom was getting some coffee mugs from the kitchen cabinet when she suddenly spotted a white-thingy on the window pane. She stopped to look.


She peered closer ...


What's that on the window???



Narrowing her eyes, she leaned over the sink to have a better look ...



And she gasped ...



OMG ...



You've gotta be kidding ...



A feather???



A white feather???



Oh my goodness ...




Mom stood perfectly still, as a wave of emotion swept through her. OMG, honestly ... she had been complaining about how she did not manage to find that white feather that had descended upon her at the Tapah rest place. Now, there's a white feather, that appeared wild and unruly, which has found its way to our window panel ...




Is this what you're looking for, Mom?





OMG ...


The feather was stuck on the outside of the window. At first Mom wanted reach for it. However, she quickly had second thoughts when she realized she couldn't reach it from where she was standing ... no matter how far she leaned over. 



Besides, the feather was all ruffled and almost broken, like it had survived an earthquake, and Mom did not want to try to scrape it off the window in case it tore further. It looked like it was in the process of disintegrating ...



Perhaps, disintegrating is too dramatic a word. 



Fall apart would be a better word ... 



Yeah, it looked like it was about to fall apart. The feather was about 1.5 cm in length if you measured it from the base to the top and yup, it looked like it would fall apart any moment. It would be difficult for Mom to try to paste it into her journal.



see the white spot in the middle ...


No, Mom was gonna leave the white feather there. It would keep her company as she washes the dishes. :D 



Good thing too that she had come across the MANGA MASSAGE (Call 178) where King Solomon was seen as witnessing white feathers fluttering down on him. The last page of the book had shown her that those white feathers appeared to have come from an angel. :D


How awesome ... <3


Justine and her friends woke up later in the morning. After a breakfast of nasi lemak and some hot drinks, we were all chilling out at the sofa area. 



There, Justine began her story ...


She said ...


Yesterday (Thursday, March 24), she went to Sunway Lagoon with 5 of her friends. They were at the water rafting park. They had already gone for about 5 rides or so, one after another. They got on the raft (in the water) ... the raft took them up to a hill steep slope, and then at the top, they would plunge down. 



We went on a similar ride in Disneyland, remember? Mom was sick to the stomach, and swore never to get on those horror rides again, only to find herself shivering on the next ride, immediately after the first one, clinging onto the metal safety bar with dear life and repeating the same thing ... 



Never again. Never again. Never again. 


How many times, Jus and You had pestered your mother to go for "one more ride."



One more time, Mom ...


So anyway, Justine said that her friends and her took turns to be in front of the raft. They were seated like on a log, one behind another, 3 on each raft. On the 6th ride, Justine was seated right front. 


The raft had gone up the hill, and at the top, it had fallen at full speed ... they reached the bottom with a giant splash and soon the raft was drifting about when Justine suddenly saw a RAINBOW right in front of her. She said, the rainbow was right in front of her face. As the raft drew closer to the rainbow, she soon found herself going under and through the rainbow.  


She had exclaimed to her friends that there was a rainbow, but none of them saw it. One of them thought Jus meant a rainbow in the sky ... but no, it wasn't in the sky. It was right in front of her! 


Another friend said, "It must be your brother..." :D




Yes, yes, we think so too ...


Then, another girl burst out in excitement and said she saw it too! Ah, a witness. Finally. A witness is always good ... The girl said that the rainbow was "right in front of our eyes!" :D 


How awesome!


They went on their 7th and final round. This time, Justine was at the back. The raft went up up up, and then down down down and splash ...




Your sister saw the rainbow again! <3


Justine's rainbow inciDAN reminded Mom about Aunty Carol's rainbow inciDAN during her mountain climbing trip in China ... none of her friends saw the rainbow at first ... they did though later ... :D Aunty Carol had said that she had felt so "lucky" to have caught sight of the rainbow and had thought of You immediately.

Mom said that You must have been celebrating with Justine at the Lagoon. She had received her SPM results the day before with perfect scores.  Yes, that rainbow was definitely from You. :D 


After all, your sister had painted a SpongeBob bouncing on a rainbow for your 21st recently ... :D So, You must have sent her one in return ... <3


This rainbow's from me, Jus ... 


(After the water play, Jus mentioned something about seeing a SpongeBob ... either a balloon or a tee shirt. Need to check with her. she's at college now.)
