Tornado

I with my mother, father and siblings at a large family gathering of some kind. My mother seems to be just staring off, not interacting with anyone there, even though it's her side of the family. People keep trying to talk with her to no avail. I tell her something really important and she just stares. I start crying really hard, so hard that i start choking on sobs as I'm sleeping. The entire ride back to the hotel she is practically a zombie. As we drive down the road I see a funnel cloud, slowly rotating and brewing on the tail of a storm. I watch with horror as the shingles start to fly off rooftops in the distance. Dad accelerates to arrive more quickly. When we are filing out of the car i learn she is going to a separate hotel room. I hold her face in my hands and stare into her eyes with all my courage and say, "I love you. I miss you. but if this is the way you want it then it's the way it will be".

She just stares. When I wake up it is raining.
