“Come in.” Toby was leaning against the bed, reading a book.

Jean came in. “Here’s your medicine, Toby. Remember to take it.”

“Thanks, Mom.” Toby nodded.

“Don’t stay up too late. I’ll be going now.” She pointed at the door.

 

“Yeah. Good night.” After Jean went away, he closed his book, took the medicine and glass from the table, and gulped the pills down in one go.

He went back to his book once he was done, but a wave of sleepiness assailed him. He knew that it was from the medicine he took, since Toby would always feel sleepy after taking his medicine when he was in the hospital. In the end, he put his book aside and lay down. A short while later, he fell asleep.

A long nightmare tortured him during his sleep. In the nightmare, Toby took Tina back after she woke up, just like how he did in reality. Of course, he asked Sonia to move out, but Sonia refused to in that nightmare. In the end, he told his servant to toss her stuff out of the house. Sonia didn’t sign the papers either. Instead, he was the one who brought up the divorce. Since she refused, Toby kept humiliating her, forcing her to sign the papers.

Aside from that, he saw Tina hurting Sonia in his dream, just like how she did in real life. However, in that dream, he thought Sonia was the one who attacked Tina. Thanks to that, he tortured Sonia and sent her to jail.

When he woke up from that nightmare, he was already drenched in sweat. Toby looked at his hands and around his room before heaving a sigh of relief. Good thing it’s just a dream. But a voice in his heart told him that if Sonia hadn’t brought up the divorce, she might have really ended up tortured and sent to jail like she was in the dream.
