She woke up sweating. She hadn't seen Danny in years. The dream felt real. All of the worries, the burning oil, the greasy pizza felt real.
She went to the sink and put cold water on her hands, and then the back of her neck.
She sighed and tried to calm down.
To her she always felt like the dreams meant something. Like that her mind was thinking of something, and water to tell her. So they dreamed something. She liked how inefficient it was. Like telling a friend their haircut looks bad. It couldn't be direct.
She drank a glass of water now. Ice cold.
It was four am. She usually wasn't up until 8am so she had some time if she could calm down.
What Danny? Why now. It was the fall. So She guessed it was when the accident was. Maybe the weather reminded her. Maybe its a memory that always will come every year she thought.
She looked outside, you couldn't tell whether it was winter or spring, fall or summer. Just looked black dark. Maybe a few leaves would give it away. Maybe.
She drank some more water. And tried to breathe in and out.
Inhale and exhale.
