Someone shook me awake. "What is it, Dal?" I said, groggily.

"It's me," the voice said, shyly, "Johnny."
I opened my eyes, still groggy, "Hey, Johnnycakes," I looked up at him, "What's up?"

"Wait!" I nearly yelled. He jumped and turned around. I calmed down and look him in the eye, sincerely. "Johnny,... what's wrong?"
"Nothing." he said, avoiding eye contact. "I'm fine..."
I patted the seat next to me, "Johnny,... Sit down... Talk to me..."
