He was standing on the ledge. This time Sophia was behind him, encouraging him to step off the ledge.
" Jump, Sam, jump!"
He took a look at the bottom but he saw no ground, all he saw was a never ending abyss.
" I can't." he stuttered.
" You can do this, Sam! I know you want this!" she yelled over the deafening wind. " This is your last chance. It's now or never! You'll go to heaven I swear!"
Sam turned. She wore a devilish grin and her face was strangely contorted.
" Do it!" she urged him. " You know you wanna do it."
Sam sobbed while she yelled at him.
" Why don't you just jump and get this over with? Come on, I have a pedicure to attend to!"
Sam hesitated then decided to climb back to safety. Seeing this, Sophia lost her mind and charged at him.
" No! You're not coming back! You deserve to rot in hell!" she said pushing him into the abyss. Sam fell and fell...
He woke up drenched in sweat, his chest heaving with heavy breaths. He felt like he just ran a marathon.
" Shh... It's okay." Brad hugged him, caressing his back in consolation. "It was just a dream." he planted a soft kiss on his shoulder. " Just a bad dream."
