She laid me down on the couch. She brought out a damp washcloth and put it on my forehead.
“You can sleep here tonight. Okay?” “Okay.” “Just calm down. Take deep breaths.”
I did what she told me. And just before I fell asleep, I said something.
“I can’t do that anymore. I’m sorry,” I said. “It’s okay, Charlie. Just go to sleep,” Sam said.
But I wasn’t talking to Sam anymore. I was talking to someone else.
When I fell asleep, I had this dream. My brother and my sister and I were watching television with my Aunt Helen.
Everything was in slow motion. The sound was thick. And she was doing what Sam was doing.
That’s when I woke up. And I didn’t know what the hell was going on.
Sam and Patrick were standing over me. Patrick asked if I wanted some breakfast. I guess I nodded.
We went and ate. Sam still looked worried. Patrick looked normal.
We had bacon and eggs with their parents, and everyone made small talk.
I don’t know why I’m telling you about bacon and eggs. It’s not important. It’s not important at all.
