so last night i had this weird dream.
it was like i was basically back home at msj for lunch time and i see my friend smalls workin in the student store. then, all of a sudden, i feel a tap on my shoulder and i turn to my right, and i see sophia ngo. and then like after i glance away really quickly, sophia is gone and bridgette is there.
i dont know what this means. what could it possibly mean?
i dont think that i have posted anything about sophia. i mean, we werent too close of friends growing up, but somehow we were always around each other. school, church, soccer, we did the same things and went to the same places. and to think that someone you have known since kindergarten with so much ahead of herself in life is gone, is still shocking. even tho you were gunned down senselessly, it made me think twice about everytime i go out. i make sure for sure to give my mom a hug and a kiss and tell her i love her everytime i go out, just incase, god forbid, i never come home again. when i first heard the news of your passing, i was in disbelief. there was just no way that this could happen to one of my friends. then, i kept hearing it from other people, and i knew something wasnt right. i told my mom what happened, and she started crying. i wish i could have been there with her when i had to tell her and when i found out. then, going to your funeral services, it was awesome to see how many people were there. you were loved, there was no doubt. it was so hard to say goodbye. walking up to your body, laying there so stiff and lifeless, the tears started building up. im not one to ususally show my emotions, but i couldnt control them. sammy is one of those guys too, but he went up to your parents and couldnt stop crying. i made my way up and said goodbye, the whole time thinking it was way too soon for that. the first person i saw after saying goodbye was your father. hes a strong man. i would love to have a father like him. i gave him a hug and the tears started flowing, they werent gonna stop anytime soon. ill never forget what your dad said to me that day. in the calmest and most comforting of voices, he said "shes in a better place now". its true. youre gone from us here, but you are having eternal happiness, too soon than we would have imagined. hopefully someday down the line, we can meet up in heaven and shoot around.
Happy Birthday Sophia. We hope you're doing well in heaven. You're always on our minds and in our prayers.
