Cassie did not take a nap, so she got up, set her phone aside, and rubbed her neck, asking Marion,” Did you have a nightmare?”

As she handed Marion a tissue, she added, “You’re sweating buckets.”

Marion took the tissue and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead. At the thought of the nightmare she just had, her face burned.

Thinking Marion had really had a nightmare, Cassie hurried over and hugged her. “Hey, don’t be scared. It was just a dream. You’re awake now, and everything in the dream was fake!”

Marion pursed her lips and glanced at Cassie’s face, responding guiltily, “Yeah.”

Then, she gently pushed Cassie away. “I’m going to wash my face.”

“Okay,” Cassie relented, releasing her hold.

Marion slipped on her slippers and headed to the bathroom, splashing cold water on her face. The icy water helped clear her mind, but as she looked in the mirror, she could not help but recall the scene from her dream.

She quickly lowered her head and splashed more water on her face.
