Max's POV
I suddenly jerked awake, breaking in cold sweat because of my nightmares.
Since my parents' death, I had been having nightmares where I revisit the moment they were killed, every night. I used to have those nightmares till a long time, until, I got used to it, or that's what I believed.
Those nightmares slowly faded, as times passed by and my sleeping hours got reduced. I don't think I had those nightmares since past two to three years. I kept on exhausting myself till I felt like passing out and then, when I went to sleep, I just slept like a log, without any nightmares or dreams.
I thought that those nightmares stopped but, I was wrong. Here I was, having same nightmares again, after three years.
I jerked awake, screaming, covered in sweat only to find each and every one in the house present in my room, surrounding me.
