The glass bottle shatters by my head. I run over to the fridge and open it up. It is empty. I turn around to face him.
“No more.” I say quietly.
“NO MORE?!?!” he staggers at me and slaps me across the face. He stumbles backwards and the door opens. ‘Mom’s home’ I think. Dad runs back at me, this time clutching a knife. He throws himself at me but someone jumps in his path. The knife pierces their heart and they fall back on my lap. I see a face. But it’s not my mom’s… I gasp as I recognize the face. Louis…. He mouths something: Run.
“I can’t leave you!” I shout, but Dad has his balance again. I run. As I run, I hear one last scream and I know it. Louis is dead…
I wake up, screaming, but I quickly stop.
“Sam, it was just a dream. Louis isn’t dead. It was Mom who died. Louis is still here. There is nothing to worry about.” I mutter to myself, trying to ease the fear. Louis suddenly busts through the door with a bat.
“Sam, are you okay?” he asks.
“I’m fine, Louis. Go back to sleep. I’m sorry for waking you.” I say with as much strength as I can muster, but my voice cracks. He lowers the bat and walks over and sits on the bed with me.
“Bad dream, love?” I nodded and he pulled me in for a hug. I tense up, trying to conceal my emotions. I was so used to doing so. Louis notices right away. “It’s okay to cry. I don’t mind. I won’t judge you. Do you want to talk about it?”
I shook my head no, unable to find words. He pulled me in closer and whispered something into my ear.
“Let go”
I felt my body loosen up and the tears ran down my face. We held each other closer than physically possible and I felt myself slowly drift to sleep.
