"Nakura-sensei, wake up."
"Shin!"
Shin gasped and panted heavily as he felt Sumire shake him awake. She called his name so loudly, leading to him breaking free of the nightmare that plagued his subconscious.
He felt his body trembling, his heart pounding, and the blood rushed to his ears. His nails dug into his palms, leading to blood.
He tried to calm down as his hands moved away from the clenched position to cover his mouth.
"Sorry about that. But you wouldn't wake up so." Sumire hesitated.
"You appeared to be having a nightmare too. So I couldn't just leave you here." Sumire suddenly reached over and placed her hand on his forehead. "You're really sweating a lot. Even though we should be heading back now, I don't think we should go with you in that condition. Ah, I know I still have some water."
