"Mommy... I had a nightmare." Luke mumbled as he hugged Charmaine. She went to check upon him but the moment she opened the door,she found Luke sitting on his bed and staring at space. When she came closer, he just suddenly grabbed her blouse.
"What is it?" she asked. She checked his temperature but his fever hasn't come back. "Maybe you've been thinking about bad things lately. It would help you get better faster if you can fill your mind with just happy thoughts!" she told him with a smile.
Luke tightened his hold on the hem of her blouse as he buried his face on her chest. "The woman...with Grandma... I dreamed of her taking away Dad from us!" he responded with trembling voice. Charmaine held the boy tighter and patted his back. What kind of a dream was it that Luke would be shaking in fear? It must be some very realistic dream. It looked like the subject of Luke's separation anxiety has now been extended to his father.
