Nightmare

Valerie

I was fast asleep, having a very happy and realistic dream; a trance where Luke and I were happily married, with our two kids tagging along with us as we walked into a throne room filled with so many people bowing their heads at us when a scream suddenly jolted me awake.

"Liana!" 

My eyes were hardly open as I frantically looked around to see where the scream had come from until I saw Luke's forehead drenched with hot sweat. He looked restless as he pulled the bed sheet tightly. His knuckles almost burst due to the action.

"Luke? Luke." I felt my heart thump hard against my chest when I realized that he was stuck in a nightmare. "Luke, wake up." I quickly stood from my side of the bed and moved to his side, tapping his arm to wake him up. 

"Liana, where are you?" His head and body were shaking and trembling as he yelled out from his dream. Liana? Is that not his dead sister?
