I walked down a dark alley hiding from someone after me.

I heard gunshots fly in the air with loud screams, echoing in the street.

I ran quickly to see James laying on the ground bleeding out.

" OH MY GOD !" I screamed, he looked at me, grunting in pain, and his eyes rolled back.

" STAY WITH ME!!" I grabbed his shirt and shook him repeatedly, he then lost consciousness and took his last breath and his body gave out.

" NO! This Can't Be Happening!!," I kept trying to revive him. I pressed my lips on his and did CPR.

He still didn't wake.

I sobbed, holding him in my arms.

" James... Please come back to me baby, just please"

Blood was all over me, a huge red puddle came from his heart painted the gray, concrete with his lifeless body, lying in the alley.

I was distraught and heartbroken. I tossed and turned in my bed uncontrollably.

"AHHH!!" I screamed from the top of my lungs with my eyes, shut tightly.

" Mommy! Mommy!! Wake up!"

My daughter shook me.

I pulled the covers off of me and gasped holding my heart.

I was sweating all over my forehead of adrenaline and shock.

I looked to see my Daughter on the bed with me. A frightened look was on her face, holding her teddy bear close to her chest.

" You had a Nightmare about daddy didn't you?." She was worried.

" Yes, sweetie. I did." I sighed, sitting up.

" I'm sorry, I startled you." I caressed her cheek.

" Mommy." She looked at me with innocent eyes.

" Yes, honey?" I looked back at her.

" Can you make me some green tea? it helps me sleep." She asked, fondling with her fingers.
