First time this summer where I can't....

sleeep. It's 3:42am and i am wide awake! Before I put my head down just awhile ago, thoughts of my Lola Leena just pop into my head. Out of no where. Ever since I returned back from my Emmaus Retreat, I haven't been able to get much sleep...
So about those thoughts about my Lola Leena, they are such a blur to me. Main things I remember was that she always took care of me as a little child when I first moved into Pinole Shores and the night of her funeral, she appeared to me. And I remember that night, it was really hot and we were in New Jersey at my Auntie Tita's Old House, I slept in Renjie's room (this was way back then when we just first met, I was like 6), well it was hot and I needed to use the bathroom. I walked quietly out of the room because it was about midnight so i shut the door quietly. As I am about to walk toward the bathroom door, I look up toward the ceiling (it was pretty dark), and I see my Lola's ghost (I was scared out of my mind). And she says "Don't be scared, Nick. I just wanted to see you one last time, before I go away. I Love You Nick and please tell your Tita I Love Her Too. Goodbye Nick and Be a good boy." I remember I told her goodbye and that I loved you also then I ran into the Guest room (where my Mom & Tita Sarah were sleeping) and woke my Tita Sarah up and told her what just happened.
Up until this day, I don't know why I was the only one she had appeared to before she had departed. I think it's time for me to go visit her in New Jersey because it has been 10 years since she has passed away.
R.I.P. Lola Leena Pajarillo, hopefully I get to see you soon.
