2 Flashback

A sudden memory flashed in my mind

"Luna! Pack your bags we're leaving" Mom went rushing through my room with a travelling bag and forcefully fit all my clothes to them, me being an obedient daughter I never asked why, because mom is an intelligence officer at NASA. . . I mean "was" because she quitted last week but still she's my mom.

I silently went to my elder twin brothers while mom was rampaging my closet.

"Do you have any idea?" Blue asked me.

"I was about to ask the same" I said and sat on the sofa.

"Maybe she'll take us back to grandma? Did we do something wrong?" Cyan was making assumptions now.

I don't know what is happening but I remained calm because I never seen mom act like this even when our father died.

After an hour we helped with packing leaving all our appliances but I took Mimi our small A.I robot made by my twin brothers at a Sci-fair in NASA and we were happy back then.

"Go to the car now!"

I was snapped back to reality when mom paced fast pass me.

We drove to an alley leading to the bank.

"Could I please cash out all our accounts and please hurry we're in a rush". I just looked at my brothers with a look asking aren't-you-gonna-do-anything? To realize they're giving me the we-don't-know-what-the-hell-is-happening look

After 30 minutes of mom ranting how slow the process in the bank is, we proceeded to the famous invention shop specifically in the Medicine section.

"Mom what are we buying?" Cyan asked but Blue interrupted

"You should be asking where on earth we are going." Mom sighed

"Well it's not on Earth Blue, you Luna do you have something to ask?" she said in a tired tone.

I think I should just keep some questions in my mind and instead asked her

"Mom will everything be alright?" I looked at her with worry in my eyes but she just smiled at me.

Mom picked up or should I say cleared the whole display for an inhaler, I think?

"That's the O2 condenser that lasts for three months oxygen for astronauts' emergency supply" Cyan said.

"Its worth is like the Iphone you have Luna" Blue whispered to me.

"I know that Blue" I pushed him.

"Oh, yeah you're planning to go to the moon" he giggled.

Next, we went to the Bio section and mom grabbed the only sack of seeds in the rack.

"These are the limited and latest mutant of tree that grows fast with minimum sunlight, bear fruits, and can make humans survive in space".

Other than that we got optimized space suits, astronaut food tubes, and everything for outer space survival. Lastly, mom sold the car and the house so we stayed at the hotel for three days.

but. . .

the least we expected just happened.
