Can't Let Go

“Crack!”

A loud crash of thunder broke the silence of the night.

“Ah...” Linda Yun suddenly woke up with a scream.

“What’s wrong?” asked Michael in a sleepy voice. He woke up as soon as he heard the scream.

Sitting on the bed, Linda Yun realized that it was raining heavily outside. The rain s hit the window, making slight crackling sounds.

She didn’t say a word, instead, she just stared at the window. It seemed that she was thinking about something deeply in her mind.

“Did you have a nightmare just now?” Michael held Linda Yun in his arms to comfort her.

The sweat on her forehead had already made her hair wet. She slowly turned around and looked at him, eyes filled with fear and worry.

“What happened?”

Seeing her expression made Michael frown.

Linda Yun didn’t know why she could be like this. She quickly threw back the covers and said, “I’ll go to find George!”

Michael immediately got up and got in front of her saying, “What’s wrong? Didn’t we agree to pick him up tomorrow?

Linda Yun didn’t reply him. She was about to open the door without wearing shoes.

Michael walked to her and grabbed her wrist, “Look at me. Tell me, what’s wrong?”

Linda Yun stopped and slowly turned her sight to him, frowning. Her expression showed that she was frightened. Then she opened her mouth and said, “I, I just dreamed that...”

Tears fell down from her eyes before she could finish saying her words.

“Linda, I will go now. Take care of yourself and live a happy life!”

The voice was so clear.

It’s more like someone was whispering to her ears.

And that was...

George Mo’s voice.

“Why do you cry?” Michael immediately took her into his arms and persuaded, “Don’t cry. You had a nightmare just now, right? Don’t worry. I’m here with you! Don’t be afraid!”

Linda Yun kept sobbing without saying a word, holding his waist tightly, her body trembled violently.

Frightening!

That dream was so frightening!

“That’s okay. George Mo is all right now. We will go to pick him up tomorrow morning.” He slightly petted her shaking back and said, “That’s okay. Don’t worry.”

Linda Yun didn’t reply as she still couldn’t calm herself down, tears felling down uncontrollably.

’Yes, it’s just a nightmare.

It must be a nightmare!’ thought Linda Yun in her mind.

“Okay, don’t be afraid now. Sleep in my arms now and let’s pick him up tomorrow morning. It’s raining heavily now, so we can’t go out now. And your brother may be sleeping now!” said Michael, holding Linda Yun by her hand and took her to the bed.

Linda Yun silently followed him and went back to the bed.

Michael smiled, held Linda Yun in his arms and kissed her forehead.

“Alright, sleep now and I’ll be at your side!”

He knew that too many things had happened these days.

Linda Yun must be stressful so she had nightmare now.

Linda Yun nodded, then lied on his chest and closed her eyes. It was hard for her to fall asleep now.
