[00:13.09]The Presence 1 Of My Brother
[00:18.41]我哥哥的鬼魂
[00:30.81]In 1999 my brother Michael passed away tragically,
[00:35.98]and to almost everyone in the family it was a total shock,
[00:40.65]since we did not know he was ill.
[00:43.36]It all started on a cold October Wednesday, exactly 3 pm,
[00:49.61]I will never forget this day for the rest of my life.
[00:53.89]Ever had a moment in your life
[00:56.01]that you just knew that something was going to happen?
[01:00.01]Something like a premonition?
[01:02.46]Well, to get back to my story,
[01:05.25]it was around 3 pm that day,
[01:08.25]my mom's cell 2 phone started to ring,
[01:11.03]and before she got to the phone to answer it,
[01:13.39]I thought: Michael is dead.
[01:16.80]I did not say this out loud of course,
[01:19.22]because that would've been a weird 3 thing to say,
[01:22.99]so I just let it go.
[01:25.06]My mom answered the phone, was quiet for a moment,
[01:29.25]started to panic
[01:30.75]and rushed downstairs with my brother-in-law,
[01:34.24]jumped in the car and drove 4 away at high speed.
[01:38.28]Apparently, this is what I heard afterwards,
[01:42.49]according to my brother's girlfriend:
[01:44.54]she found my brother dead in their bedroom,
[01:47.28]eyes still open and his body still warm,
[01:51.02]but it was already too late for him, he had passed.
[01:55.44]The entire 5 time my mom was gone the house was quiet,
[01:59.85]my 2 younger sisters were upset
[02:02.52]because they didn't know what was going on,
[02:05.34]neither did I, because nobody told us what happened,
[02:09.82]but instinctively 6 I knew he was dead.
