on my way back home

It's been a week since I came back. I still constantly fear that it might be a dream and I might wake up from it any time. I don't want to wake up even if it's a dream. Other than that I am still in the hospital. You might ask, why am I still in the hospital when I am completely healed. Because of my parents, they wanted to make sure that everything was completely fine and there is no sequel of this. Honestly I am shocked that hospital even allowed this. Even doctor Sheng said it was unnecessarily after two days of being admitted after I was healed. But my parents insisted. I am finally being discharge. I am not complaining of the attention and resources I am getting but you have to admit that it is really boring staying in one room all the time.

Mom and Aunt Liz are packing the few things I have here while I am watching TV with Danny, my youngest eldest brother. I am so glad that he is okay. I can hardly control myself from crying. Maybe it's because I am child again. I clean the tears that were already falling. Danny was about to fall asleep when he was awoken by my shaking. He was shocked, he checked the TV to see whether I was crying because I saw something on TV or not. But it was simply showing Tom and Jerry, so he didn't know how to comfort me at all. Mom was not within our eyesight and he didn't want to leave me alone. He simply started to pat my back and hugged me while saying "it's going to be okay" again and again.

When mom entered the room, she was shocked to find both of us crying. I didn't realize that Danny had started to cry until mom asked us about why we both are crying. I hugged Danny back with all I had got, but somehow he started to cry even louder. Mom wanted to hug us and comfort us but Danny refused to let go. So mom had to carry both us and placed us in her lap, she somehow managed to make us stop crying. I feel asleep right after that and she still didn't knew why we were crying.

When I woke up, I was sitting in the car. We were travelling back home. I slightly rubbed my eyes and moved to see the scenery outside. I was so excited; it's been so long since I came back. It's been so long since I travelled such peaceful and enchanting roads. I can't fully recall the road names but I do vaguely remember every single turn and curve of the way. Danny was sleeping beside me while holding my hand. I was in my mom's lap; she smiled when I woke up and didn't say anything to me until I spoke up first. I don't know maybe she didn't want to make start to cry again. Oh my god, she is just so adorable. I am so grateful that dad made his move on her when he did.

"Mom…." I called out to her.

"Yes baby" she replied with the sweetest voice.

I couldn't help it but to tease her. I lowered my head and shock my body and called out to her again with a little tremble in my voice. "Mom…."

I couldn't see my mom expressions but I knew that she was panicking. The fact was that she couldn't even see my face properly, so she wanted to take a lock but I didn't let her. It's so hard to control my laughter at this point. I lifted my head with the biggest smile on my face "I love you mommy". She was shocked and then relieved. I could even see a little anger in her eyes but that was easy to ignore until she hugged me so tight that air escaped from my lungs. She let me go after I struggled a little and hugged me again gently. "Oh, what am I going to do with you" she gently said this under her breath. I think she is afraid that I would turn out to be like my two elder brothers or even worst.
