Helanie:
My body had been shaking ever since he said those words. I thought I would never hear them again, mainly because I was convinced it was just part of the dream prison.
"That's not true," I shook my head, refusing to believe it.
"I'm not mistaken, Helanie," he insisted. As he tried to come closer, I stepped back, creating distance between us.
"Kaye! You said you didn't remember anything about that—dream prison." I hugged myself as my mind drifted to the other details of the dream prison.
"I didn't—until I did," he stammered, and I knew he had lied to me. It's not like I had been completely honest with him either, but I had said a lot of things in the dream prison that worried me.
"Kaye, it was just part of the dream," I rubbed my elbow, turning my face to the side, feeling embarrassed.
