Lia woke up with a startle.
She had a dream where she was engulfed in darkness so deep and lonely. Everywhere was deadly silent, her shouts echoing off without finding anyone to help her out; it felt like she was lost forever. The dream scared her so much that she awoke, trembling.
"Hey, it's okay. It's just a nightmare," She felt a warm body draw her into a hug, it was solacing.
"You're okay, sweetheart. You're with me," Daniel smoothed her back with his hand.
"D-daniel?" Lia glanced up at him in the hug.
"Yeah, it's me,"
"What happened…? " Lia was still asking when the memories came flooding in.
The girl became pale at once, "Oh my God," she pulled away and palmed her face, horrified.
"Lia?"
"I nearly hurt Sabrina…." it dawned on her as she glanced down at herself with disgust, "Gosh, I'm dangerous to everyone. This is why Asher should have let them take me," the guilt hit her.
