Now that she had acknowledged that there was a very high possibility that the reason her nightmares had stopped for that one night, was most likely because she had been sleeping with her boss. Emily should have been feeling better. She should have at least been feeling some sort of closure.
She had found a possible solution and had also come to terms with the fact that she could not have that solution. It was so close, and yet so far away…simple.
In reality, there was no such thing.
On Monday morning, after accepting that she could not ask such a personal favor from her boss, Emily had walked into work bright and early, feeling determined. She could do this, all she had to do was find something else that made her sleep and then she would be set. There would be no need to risk her job by asking him such a personal thing.
