It was awful.” “Ha-ha,” Sabrina drawled. “I’m serious. It was terrible to watch.” “Sorry.” Marie laughed. “It’s okay, I forgive you.” “Gee, thanks. Now I’ll be able to sleep again.” She cringed as soon as the words were out of her mouth. Here come the questions…. “Have you had any more nightmares?” “No, I’m fine.
