Nikki And Sophie On Paradise World Dream (Part 2: Nikki Meets Sophie's Parents)

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Sobra ka naman, Niks," he said, "pero hanggang ngayon hindi ka pa rin mawala 'yung sarili mong mannerisms sa pag-express mo na G-R-R na gano'n-gano'n na lang."

"Siyempre," I said, "gano'n lang talaga katindi 'yung habit sa sarili kong expression sa tuwing inaasar nila ako. Eh paano na maging peaceful sa sarili ko if they may not able to respect me so much?"

"O siya," he said, "matutulog na nga ako, ikaw rin matulog ka na rin. Napupuyat na nga ako sa pagkaka-drive ko tuwing pagsapit ng gabi."

Oh well, still I refused to tell my extraordinary dream last night for kuya Jomar, nor I intend to ask for him about his experience of dreaming every night. Yes, not all of them had often believed in me about my strange experience of dreaming based from what I watched my favorite TV show about Sophie. Ang iniisip nila, gawa-gawa lang at walang katotohanan.

But what if I try to tell about this matter of mine for my little sis Abby that I had forgotten earlier? Parang hindi gaano napapansin eh, kasi relate lang siya for listening ate Maya's casual fairytale story of a princess having with an affair with mahal na hari in a peaceful kingdom a long time ago.

Back in my bedroom, before I sleep I wished to convince that I should never visit Sophie's world again as a promise. Hmmm, ano kaya ipapanaginip ko na kahit maganda lang? Oh my gee, give me good dream na maiba naman. (o^___^o)

**TRAVELLING IN A DREAM**

YES! YES! YES! Oh, ang speech ko parang si Baby ng Dream Dad. :D At last, as I laid in a grassy field and my eyes slowly open to see a sunshine, I thought I'm now in a dream paradise garden. Bumangon ako at nang naipagpag ang suot kong puting damit, I walked formally, anywhere just I expect to see trees and blooming flowers with a lot of fresh air.

Then I saw the little girls playing a typical human hurdle jump, or popularly known as luksong tinik. Oh my gee, I missed that act when I was a little girl! Hmm, nilapitan ko sila para subukan ko lang.

"Excuse me," I told to them, "may I try just you were playing?"

"Opo," a little girl answered, "sali ka na rin para mapasaya ka sa buhay mo!"

'Di ba, before nauuso na ngayon ang various form of electroic games, ang traditional Philippine larong pambata ay nakaeehersisyo talaga, not only they could do physically fit but also enhance motor skills on both mind and emotions, according to studies? Ang galing ko talaga mag-inform, he he! Kaya nagtiyaga ako maglaro sa kanila as I was able to leap over their arms raised parallel, kasi matangkad ako t'wing nagdalaga. :D

Still I continue to have a good bonding for those little girls in any form of children's play, such as-say-a popular Filipino children's song about a queen bee zigzagging to enter a flower. But a few tens of minutes later, I was familiar in my sight a few meters away that I saw Sophie's parents talking on each other.

"Excuse me," I said to them, "I have to leave you now, but thanks for playing for you. Until then, bye for now! I love you so much!" At sabay kaming iniwagayway ang right hand namin while I walked away fast.

Unti-unting pinalapit ko sa kanila as I had always expected to greet them humbly and formally with my due respect. 'Yung 'di gaano nakakagulat talaga. So I stand straight formally while nakaharap na ako sa kanila.

"Ahm, good day, sir, ma'am," I humbly said to them while I tried to shake hands for them with my right hand, "were you a real Sophie's parents?"

As Sophie's parents paused their talks, Ohh, tila biglang natutulala nila sa akin. :|

"Is that you, Sophie?" Sophie's mom said.

O___O

Huh? Kamukha daw ang friend kong si Sophie kahit hindi ako naka-headband? Nakanganganga pa ako sa pagtataka ko.

"Ahm," I said to them, "with my due respect, I'm not Sophie as you were expected, but I'm Nikki-Grace Lim."

"Nikki?" Sophie's dad Paul Cepeda asked. "Bakit ka ba nandito sa amin?"

"I don't know, sir," I replied, "but I'd not expect to come up here for disturbing you. I thought it was a 'magic' that tend me to arrive this place."

"'Magic'?" Sophie's dad said. "Paano mo nalaman 'yon?"

"Maybe of course," I said, "in my strange dream that were often watching you. But in the meantime, sir, ma'am, your daughter Sophie was really fine and alive as of now na she prayed na nag-aalala na siya sa inyo. And you, too, were still worrried for your daughter from being alone. The good news is, nagsikap na po siya mag-aral at nag-trust pa rin the right bonding of her friends."

"Really?" Sophie's mom said. "Nakapasa pa ba siya?"

"Maybe yes," I answered, "pero she was often proud of herself kahit hindi pa siya nakaabot sa top ranking ng grades niya. Don't you worry, she'll be really fine to improve her studies next time, nang sa gayon you were always proud of her."

There were a lot of stories to tell my conversation to them about what happened to their daughter Sophie as my friend, as well as my conversation about me and their modest conversation about their personal experience when there were bonded with their daughter. A few minutes later, Sophie and my mother Alex who met each other toward us.

"Nikki?" Sophie said to me standing at my back. "Why are you doing here?"
