"Hey mom?" I walked into the kitchen when my mom was doing dishes. She looked up, "oh hi Riley. Do you need something?"
"Mom, is it weird for people to have flashbacks?"
"Not at all, why? Have you been having flashbacks?" She put the dishes into the dish washer and then proceeded to sit in front of the kitchen island.
"I'm just doing a project for school about the reflex in the human mind that causes flashes of light to appear and show images that the brain comes from the mind and by osmosis the brain goesthroughdifferentstagesofsceinceythingswithpicturesandotherthingyjinglemagines so yeah!" I'm really hoping that I said enough sciences words and went too fast for her to understand anything after "I'm doing a project for school". Good, she looks confused.
"It's the summer time, how do you have a project?" My mom questioned. Shoot. I forgot I it was summer time.
"Oh I'm just ah, getting a head start for next year." Please work. She nodded her head. "Ok." She replied.
"Great! So let's say that you forgot about someone and it's like you almost forgot that they existed but then one day you start having random flash backs of them? Does happen to normal people?"
"Honey are sure this isn't about you? I think you may just be imaging things. Maybe you should take a nap." Great now my mom thinks I'm going crazy. "Yeah, you're probably right mom, I'll go take a nap."
"Ok sweetie, love you!" Why does she always say that? What exactly is love? I don't understand when someone says they love you all the time. If they really loved you and have already told you and you loved them, why would you keep needing them to remind you? It's like two people say I love you. 5days later: One person says I love you. The other person: oh yeah that's right! I forgot. I don't get it but before I walk back up to my room, "love you too."
