CALL 831 : ELECTRIC DREAMS

Hello Son,

It's Monday 29th @ 8.06am.

We left Genting at 6.30 am.

The drive was smooth.

The radio was on.

So at one point, Mom heard a familiar tune. Her eyes shot to the dashboard.

It was 7.05 am.

A happy smile instantly appeared on your mother's face.

That's 12.

Secret code : 21

Electric Dreams came on.

This was a very old song that was popular during Mom's college year in 1984.

Same time as Karate Kid ... 

Daniel Larusso. 

1984.

A very special year. 

1984.

Your grandfather left us that year.

He was 44 years old.

Angel year.

Electric dreams came on.

Mom managed to record the second verse.

Because the friendship that you gave,

Has taught me to be brave,

No matter where I go ...

I'd never find a better prize,

Though you're miles and miles away,  

I see you every day,

I don't have to try,

I just close my eyes ...

We'll always be together,

However far it seems,

We'll always be together,

Together in ELECTRIC DREAMS ...

Mom listened to the song intently ... right to the end.

Mom said,  "That's me and him ... in electric dreams ... my computer and our communication ..."

That was Mom's morning ZAP.

We'll always be together in electric dreams.

Thank you,  Son.

It's been quite a few years since Mom heard this song ... but the moment the tune came on the radio... within like 3 seconds, (haha) ...

Mom had said out loud :

Electric Dreams.

Lol.  

We drove on in silence.

Grandma was sleeping behind.

Soon,  we reached Kuala Lumpur.

As the traffic slowed down,  Mom caught sight of this vehicle with the big bold : DEE

Mom pointed out to Dad.

DEE is what your mother calls your dad. 

Heehee.

Ya ... 

It's short for Buddy.

Lol.

Her texts to Dad all begin with Dee.

Mom then noticed the zap numbers.

6168

She immediately said, 

"Hey,  isnt that 21?"

6618

"Son is reminding us he is still with us, from the beginning of the journey till we reach (our destination) ..."

Mom explained - contentedly.

Mom just checked the time of the photos taken.

Beach scene at the start of  that movie,  you will hear someone calling :

Talk to you in a bit,  Son.

Keep the ZAPS coming.

Over to you.

Kisses,

Mom

CALL 830 : MANDARIN NUMBER

Hello Son,

(Continue from Call 829)

Dad and Mom left the coffee house.

We were walking towards the exit.

Dad stopped by a wall-sized roulette,  that was spinning away.

Dad asked,  "Guess which number?"

Mom said, "24!  You?"

Dad appeared to be thinking for a bit.

Your father said, "Number 12."

Mom was almost holding her breath as she looked at the ball spinning away ... and gradually stopped ... 

tok tok tok tok tok tok ... 

and landed on ...

number 3.

Pause.

Ohh.

Dad gave a dramatic groan.

"Aiyahhhh!"

Mom suddenly saw a light bulb go off in her head.

"That's Son ... 

he's saying hi ... 

number 3 ... 

that's Sannn (mandarin) ... "

Dad looked blurr.

Mom got impatient.

"Number 3 in mandarin is sannn ... 

Like ... yi ... er ... sannn ..." 

Your mother stressed on the san.

The pronunciation is like SON.

 Only the intonation is a bit different.

From the Internet.


One  Two  Three


Yi     Er     San

Oh Wow!

How was it possible that Mom had that - enlightenment?

You must have whispered in your mother's ears.

"Yi ... er ... sannn ... sannn ..."

Lol. 

That ZAP was amazing!

Truly and absolutely amazing!

Dad and Mom walked out the exit of the casino.

Mom said, "Let's get McD's ..."

Dad gave your mother that -- look.

Like - 

Are you serious?  

We just ate.

Mom explained, "I feel like I'm betraying my body ... yesterday ate rice ... today, noodles ... so much carbs the past 2 days ... I need meat."

Dad didn't need convincing.

We made our way to McDonald's.

A few minutes later,  Mom saw a t-shirt with a big number 4 walking towards her.

Omg.

Quickly, Mom grabbed her handphone.

The girl walked passed your mother.

Mom made an abrupt 180 degrees turn to take a snapshot of that number 4 girl from the back.

Ahh.

Good.

The number 4 is also on the back.

At 19:51, her angel number 4 walked past Mom.

1951

WAHHH!

Perfect!  

ZAP ZAP !!

You must be telling Mom she is right in her ...

"sannn = son" ... theory.

Heehee. 

We got the burgers. 

On the way back to the room,  Dad got coffee. Mom waited outside the cafe.

Suddenly,  she saw the number 12 before her eyes.

Dad is on the extreme right.

Number 12 is on the left.

Can you see it?

There.

Dad appeared with the coffee.

Number 12 and Dad.

Mom couldn't wait to tell your father.

She was bursting with excitement.

"Omg ... Did you see the number 12 in there just now?"

Dad said no.

Then,  your father turned back to look. 

He saw, obviously.

Mom said, "That is Son telling you he heard your guess at the roulette just now ... number 12 ... you guessed number 12 just now ..."

Omg.

12 or 21 ...

No matter how you look at it, Mom knows it's you,  Daniel. 

You.

You.

You.

All you!

You are making your presence felt.

Awww.

Thank you,  Son.

Happy smile.

Fast forward to 10 pm ...

Dad and Mom went to the casino to get Grandma.

Mom forgot her casino member card. She left it in the room.

So Dad went up to the gold members' floor on his own to meet Grandma.

Dad texted a few minutes later and said that, Grandma was not ready to leave and to come back at 11pm.

Dad came down.

Your father said, 

"I saw the numbers on that big roulette wheel on the wall ... 

the last number on the right was 21 ...

and the last number on the left (present number) was number 3."

What?!

Dad was referring to the record number chart.

It would have looked like this :

3   X   X   X   X   X   X   X   21

O

M

G

Are you kidding me?

3 and 21??

"So,  I was right. Number 3 isss Son!"

Omg.

Unbelievable!

That was really awesome,  Sannn.

Need to go to bed now. Have to wake up early tomorrow morning. Leaving 7am. We have school tomorrow.

Nite nite.

Keep the ZAPS coming.

Mom

CALL 829 : ROULETTE ZAP

Hello Son,

(Continue from Call 828)

Grandma said to meet her for early dinner at 6pm.

Dad and Mom were walking around the Genting mall and spent the afternoon window-shopping. 

At about 5:30pm, we walked towards the casino.

At the casino, Mom looked for Grandma at her usual table. 

Grandma was not there.

Mom looked over at the next table.

No. No sign of your grandmother.

Then Dad said,  "She's over there ..."

Oh. 

The next, next table. 

Mom was about to go over.

Dad said,  "Dont disturb your mom."

Your mother replied, "I'm not going to disturb her. I just want to check what's the number (roulette) right now."

Dad nodded his OK.

Your father went off to the roulette machines and Mom walked over to Grandma's table.

Mom checked the number board.

Omg.

Seriously?

Present number : 24

24 ?

That's your birthdate.

And Decode:

All You!

Nobody,  nobody but you.

Grandma did not notice Mom. 

Mom then walked over to Dad.

Dad was about 30 walking steps away.

Just to let you know the distance.

Lol.

So Dad was at this roulette machine.

Mom looked over.

A number 29 came out.

Before 29,  number 1 came out twice.

Next number was 10.

Mom just looked on.

Next was 15.

And then,  15 again.

Dad said, "Number 15 came out twice."

Mom said with a grin, "That's Son. He's saying HI ..." 

15 years old was/is your age.

You left us at 15.

Also, the angel code for 15:

4

No matter how you see it, 15 is a number that ZAPS your mother.

We were not expecting it but the next number after 15,  was :

O

M

G

24

What!

Omg! 

Mom spoke excitedly in low tones.

"The number on my mom's table was a 24 when I was there ... and now after you commented on the number 15,  number 24 popped out again?"

Photography is prohibited.

See the record of numbers on the top.

It is easier to curi-curi take photo when you are alone with your own machine.

Lol.

So anyway,  Grandma was ready to go for dinner.

Grandma whispered,  "I made One K."

Wahhhh!

So Grandma bought dinner.

Heehee.

Dad got all these sambals.

Grandma made the orders at the cashier and came to the table with a buzzer showing number : 10

Mom looked at the number.

10 ...

Hmmm.

No zap.

A few minutes later,  the buzzer buzzed.

Dad went to collect the food.

Pan Mee.

Curry mee.

Here's Grandma.

The bowls were large. 

We shared the noodles amongst ourselves.

After our food, Mom noticed the receipt on the far end of the table.

Mom picked it up. 

She took a peek and started laughing to herself.

Mom showed Dad the receipt.

24


24


Two times?



Omg.



How do you explain that?


24 came out at Grandma's table   

and then at Dad's.


Two times!



Both the numbers 24 and 48


were screaming


Angel number 21.


(24 = 42 = 21)


(48 = 84 = 21)

ZAP ZAP ZAP!!

At this point of ending the call-text,  Mom suddenly gets alerted to the number 10.

The buzzer showing number 10.

Mom did not take a photo of the buzzer. She didn't think that was a zap evidence. Lol.

But look here.

Dad sat on his machine at number 29.

Then, next came 10.

After that the two times number 15.

And ended with a 24.

It was a ZAP ZAP ZAP all the way!

Number 10 was the buzzer.

Omg. What are the chances???

No chance.

Not a chance.

Angel chance.

Talk to you in a bit,  Son.

Grandma has gone back to the table.

Dad and Mom will walk around a bit.

Meeting your grandmother at 10pm to take her back to the room. 

Mom

CALL 828 : LEANING TOWER

Hello Son,

It's Sunday @ 2.59 pm.

Dad and Mom drove Grandma up to Genting Highlands. Grandma wanted to claim her FREE hotel room. 

Aunty J and Uncle Craig flew to Phuket early this morning. They will be back in 4 days (Wednesday).

We left our condo at 11:50am.

So ...

We were driving along.

Grandma was behind.

Mom in front.

Dad at the wheel.

Mom was texting to your aunties in the family chat. We were trying to plan for coming Wednesday and Thursday when Aunty J and Uncle Craig return from their Phuket holiday.

At one point, Mom happened to look up.

Her eyes immediately caught sight of the time on the screen.

Do you see that?

We left Grandma there. She would meet us at 6pm for early dinner. Your grandmother had already taken some food before we came up.

So, Dad and Mom went on our own to have some lunch.

Lol.

Curry noodles.

Omg. As good as can be. 

So incredible ...


This curry noodles

We are going to check out
her condo.

In the lift.

The water was icy cold.

It took us awhile to get in.

Brrrrrrrr.

Dad says maybe it's because

Genting Highlands is near.

Satay was addictive.


Try one,  try another one.


That's 21 sticks altogether.


Lol.

Uncle Craig (the white guy)

loves the peanut sauce.

Mini no-sugar Coke. 

We are chilling ...

Megan,  Ryan and Dylan.

Uncle Craig & Aunty Jess

Kayden went to buy dinner

whilst Justine was with us

at the pool.

Omgosh.

We did not expect such

a huge feast!

Dylan loves burgers.

Hence,  the big smile at

the monster burger.

Briyani rice.

Spicy and non-spicy.

Black pepper steak.

The right is beef in black oriental sauce.

The best burger we have ever had.

This would be your view,

Mom thinks.

Truly,  the juiciest burger in town.


From Woodfire. 

Eating whole day.

Carnivore is out the window.

Curry mutton.

Chicken briyani.


Dad was surprised Mom ate so much Briyani rice.  Mom too surprised herself.  She has hardly touched rice for the past 2 years and when she does,  it would be a few tablespoons only .... we don't want no inflammation in the joints. 


Eye roll. 


Mom just suddenly recalled the briyani story with you. You were in the hospital. Your last and final visit. We were there for about a week. One of the family people bought a few packets of briyani rice for Dad and Mom and your aunties ... we were all hanging out at the hospital.



Yes,  the briyani rice.



The strong aroma had filled your hospital room. 


You were not able to eat the briyani. You had just come out of a few days coma state. In fact,  you had choked and was coughing badly when Mom gave you a tiny drop of water (when you awoke).


So at that time,  Mom had no appetite for the briyani rice. Mom had told Dad to remove the packages out of your room because of the strong aroma. It's not like you were gonna be able to enjoy that.


So yeah ....


The briyani yesterday ....


Oh boy ...


It must have been for mom.


She can almost hear you say,


"Enjoy the briyani,  Ma ..."


Mom was literally chomping down the briyani like there's no tomorrow. It was super-duper delicious. 

We were kicking our spoons and fingers.

Heehee.

Ok Son.

Gotta get ready for church.

Talk to you in a bit.

Keep the ZAPS coming.

Mom
