In the morning, cornelius woke up and

then started singing and doing his happy

dance . His mom heard him and thought

something was wrong . So she ran to see

what’s going on . She was shocked to see

what he was doing . 

“ Cornelius, what’s the matter with you?

Are you going crazy ? Why are you doing

that?” Asked his mom worriedly .

“ I’m fine mama , I’m just really happy .

Guess what ma ?” Replied Cornelius 

“ you got a million Dallars ?” Asked his mom 

“ No , My notion worked . I didn’t have a

nightmare last night . I didn’t even have a

dream .” Said Cornelius. 

“ Cornelius Simmons , I love you so much

and I’m so proud of you .” Cried his mom

while hugging him . 

“ I love you too ma!!” Cried Cornelius. 

“ we need to tell everyone.” Said his mom . 

When Cornelius heard that he got the

phone and called the news company . He

wanted the whole world to know but he

wasn’t sure if everyone would agree to it .

That’s why he decided to contact a world

news instead of the local news station

Some answered the phone . 

“ Hello, this is Earth News Station, how

can I help you?” Said the lady tenuously 

“ I have good news to share with you that

will make your life worthwhile.” Said

Cornelius. 

“ What's your name kid? And what’s the

good news?” Asked the reporter

sarcastically

“ My Name is Cornelius Simmons , I am

16 and I found the cure for the

nightmares.” Replied Cornelius. 

“ Really, what’s the cure?” Asked the lady 

“ At night time everyone has to sleep with

the red light on . So if you have a regular

bulb you have to change it to the red one

and try it ASAP.” Said  Cornelius.

“ I’m sorry I cant broadcast or publish this until

I know it works , so it might be awhile until

you see it on the news.” Said the reporter

“ okay, thank you .” Replied Cornelius 

Cornelius wanted to see it on the news

now but he had no problem waiting .  He

bought another red bulb , one for his

mom . That night he slept like a baby and

so did his mom and the reporter. They

were the only three to have such an

amazing slumber .
