Jeremy felt as if his heartstring were being pulled painfully as he was completely awakened at that moment.
He switched on the table lamp. Under the soft lighting, he saw Madeline drenched in a cold sweat. She was tightly holding onto the blanket, her eyes shut as she frowned. Her mouth kept blurting for help. She was terrified.
"Jeremy, don't go, don't go…"
She was dreaming, and her tone sounded like she was crying. Jeremy could even see tears coming out from the corners of Madeline's eyes.
