The Counselor was still confused, not knowing what had happened.
However, upon hearing that laugh, Aiwass saw "Sherlock" instantly become calm and, rubbing his face, feigned a sleepy expression as an excuse for his previous loss of composure, "I was a bit groggy... I thought I was dreaming when I just woke up..."

"It's just a pity," Aiwass said meaningfully, "this is not a dream, but reality."
—Regrettably, this is the dream, and you are but a figment of it, destined to vanish like bubbles when I wake.
The Counselor scoffed internally.
After calming down a little, he realized what he needed to do now.
