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. 


1984

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.

Am Number 4.


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


Daniel ... Daniel!!


Big smile.


Talk to you in a bit,  Son.


Keep the ZAPS coming.


Over to you.


Kisses,

Mom
