CHAPTER 144

  Foden woke up feeling uncomfortable; the nightmare he had was a bit scary and bothered him. It had been such a long while since he had such an almost real dream that had him panting hard from sleep. His reaction has woken Sansan up. Putting on the light next to her, she rubbed at his back.

  "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?" She inquired in a groggy voice. It's apparent sleep still lingered in her eyes.

  He gulped hard, feeling his throat a bit dry. "Yes, but it's nothing to be worried about. Please go back to sleep."

  "Are you sure?"

  Smiling, Foden kissed her forehead. "Yes, I am. Please go back to sleep."

  She listened, switching off the light and leaning on her side to sleep. Noticing her deep breath, Foden got off the bed, heading towards the kitchen. Pouring himself some water, he sat down on one of the stools.
