CHAPTER 44

“Gibberish? No,” Ada shook her head with disagreement. “I don’t think I ever talk in my sleep, this is different. It was so real.”

“Oh, perhaps you can relate it with me. The look on your eyes tells the tale. You must have seen the devil himself in your sleep.”

“It’s a far cry from that. It was the most scenic experience I have ever had,”

“If that’s the case, why the sullen look? God, you look horrible,”

Ada cleared the air in her throat and let her eyes settle on Chira’s.

“You are making me curious. What was so appealing in your dream that you were reluctant to leave?”
