Part 3-Trip To The Land Of The Pharaoh

The night has been a doozy, barely knowing what has happened, Kloee managed to stumble out of bed and wash up. As she takes the toothbrush from its stand, she still remembers about the dream. It was not very clear but she still remembers it. That was strange, she said to herself, what was that tablet? And who was that person? His words, yes it's a he, she can tell, his words sounded familiar, she had heard them before, but didn't somehow 00. Whatever Kloee is thinking right now makes the least bit of sense, but she still managed to get past brushing her teeth and taking a shower.

Maybe the trip to Egypt will clear my mind more, Kloee thought to herself as she lets the cool water run down her exhausted body. She was barely awake during breakfast and almost fell asleep during the ride to the airport. When they finally got onto an airplane she woke up, looking out the window, there was nothing but clouds and mist. The air was cold in the airplane so she suggested they must have put on the air conditioner. Doesn't matter, the cold air had made Kloee more awake than before, she can actually think clearly now.

So she began to think, about the dream, everything, she had thought that maybe she should share the dreams with her parents, perhaps they can understand. Her mom had worked 2 years as a dream psychologist before she met her father and became an archaeologist. Glancing back on the seat behind her sat her mom, reading the odyssey by the Greek writer Homer, while her dad was sleeping with his mouth wide opened and snoring. Kloee took the time to enjoy the scene, it was a rare occasion to see her father sleeping this peaceful and mom reading without getting annoyed at his snoring.

Her parents had been divorce for a year now, Kloee's mom just feel like her dad don't have time for the family anymore, with his research and all that. While her dad thinks Kloee's mom should be more supportive at his works, it was complicated but they still get back together over the summer and go on family vacation and stuff. They, after all, have a full grown daughter and she needs the best attention there is provided, that is why Kloee still loves them, because they have to put up with each other just for their daughter's sake. It was really sweet.

"Looks like someone woke up from her nap"

Kloee smiled, it was fun being around with mom, she doesn't take everything so serious like dad. "How long have I been asleep?" "Oh long enough, as a matter of fact; we're about to land right now".

"What?! Wow I've been asleep for longer than I thought!"

"Well I don't blame you; you were up so late last night reading that pharaoh book. I think you fell asleep at

3 am or something??"

"You were spying on me???"

Her mother smiled slyly, "well I was up at 1 to go to the bathroom, when I saw that you still have your light on".

"Actually mom, that's what I wanted to talk to you about, you see after I read the book and went to sleep I had this really weird dream that- her words were cut short by a flight attendance's announcement. They were going to land soon. "Come on, get you bags Kloee, we're getting off , tell me what happened after we land, ok?"

They got off the plane and went in search for a hotel to stay for the night. Since it was really late when they landed, Koee didn't have a chance to tell her mom about the dream. Which got worse, that night in the small Egyptian inn, with the itchy mattress scratching her back, Kloee had the dream again. This time it was faster moving and clearer. She dreamt she was once again in the sand of Egypt, frantically searching around for signs of people. It was really hot and Kloee can feel herself sweating. Then that face appeared once again, more clear this time.

He has deep eyes and wild hair, wearing a royal Egyptian outfit; it was all that Kloee can remember once her mother woke her up. Drenched in sweat, she swinted to see the clock, which was now covered with a shower of light from the beating sun out the window. 10 AM, it all seems so fast, everything went too quickly. Hearing her mom call for her to get breakfast, Kloee hops out of bed and got dressed in some jeans Capri and t-shirt, tied her hair into a pony tail and put on a blue cap with matching sunglasses. She smiled to herself, now she REALLY looks like a tourist!

Breakfast was quick and simple; Kloee had herself a piece of toast with light buttering and a glass of orange juice. She was too tired to eat anything else and thinking of the dream had only made her more tired. So she quickly finished up her small breakfast to join her parents in the excavation.
