Chapter 9: I'll Be Back
Jamie slept very peacefully that night. What she was hoping for happened, she had another dream.
~*~*~Jamie's Dream~*~*~ Jamie was standing in her Father's house, in her old bedroom. She could see herself lying on the bed, asleep. She looked the way she had when she was about eight years old. There was a woman standing over her, bathed in a soft light, almost like a night light. Jamie stepped closer to get a good look at herself. She could her mother's bible lying on the bedside table. The woman sat down on the bed and began to hum the melody to the lullaby Jamie had heard in her other dream. She walked around to the other side of the bed so she could look at the angel. When she saw her face she gasped. The angel looked up at her and smiled.
Suddenly Jamie was in another room, it was the guest bedroom in the house she lived in with Landon. The angel appeared next to her. "Jamie." The angel said softly.
"Mommy?" Jamie asked. "Is it you?"
"Yes Jamie, it's me. I've come to give you a message." Her mother replied.
"What is it?"
"I have been coming to you for a few weeks now in your dreams because I have wonderful news for you. You're going to be fine. Someday you'll even have children." Elizabeth informed her daughter.
"But Mom, I can't. Not with all the chemo and the cancer. How do you know?" Jamie was confused,
"Jamie, dolly, you'll just have to trust me. Don't forget the songs I sang to you in your first dream. You know, those were the songs that lit up your face the most when you were a baby." Elizabeth said. "I have to go now, Jamie. I'll be back. Not for a long time. But I'll be back." With that Elizabeth hugged her daughter close to her, then turned to leave. Jamie blew her a kiss, and her mother returned it. ~*~*~End of Dream~*~*~
The next morning Jamie woke up to find Landon still asleep. She mentally debated whether or not to tell him. Finally she decided she would because she could never keep something from him. But, it would be when the time was right.
With that Jamie stood up, careful not to wake her sleeping husband, and walked over to the desk in their bedroom.
