Late Night Angel

When I was younger I used to live in California somewhere around L.A to be exact. I lived with both of my parents in a small two bedroom apartment with only the occasional visit from my siblings Andrea and Ryan.

Late one night I woke up in my parent's bed having to pee and, being a young child, asked my mother to go with me to the bathroom. But at the time she was too tired and told me to hush and hold it until morning or go on my own. At first the thought of leaving the safety of my parent's bed was unthinkable so I just lay back down and tried to sleep. I failed miserably and after I got up my courage, I tip-toed to the door and peered out to make sure it was all safe. Being satisfied with what I saw I began my way to the bathroom. As I was half way there I was randomly stricken with terror and turned to run back to my parents. Only when turned I hit a solid white figure. On further examining the figure I saw a beautiful blonde woman in a long flowing night gown standing in front of me, I now believe her to have been an angel because when I looked at her all of the terror that I had felt was suddenly gone. The lovely woman took my hand (that's the only I KNOW this wasn't a dream, I FELT the warmth of her skin.) and walked me to the bathroom. Then when I was done she walked me to my parent's bedroom door.

My mother woke up as I crawled in to bed and told me that she was proud of me for going by myself. Needless to say that she was in shock when I told her of the woman in white. In fact, she was so shocked that she checked our apartment several times over for an intruder. But the woman was nowhere to be found and I never saw her again...

This was the first of many encounters that I have had in my life... Although the encounter that took place after this one wasn't until about three or four years later...

If you have any thoughts on this or if you can relate, I would LOVE to hear from you.
