\u201cWhat do you mean, you were in my dream?\u201d<\/p>\n
Sue shook her head gently as she spoke and ran her fingers through her hair; her eyes told a tale of disbelief.<\/p>\n
I tried to think of a way to explain what I had experienced without sounding insane, but there was nothing to tell her.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook, I know it sounds crazy as sunscreen in a rainstorm, but when you woke up and described that room to me, and what you were doing in your dream \u2013 you know counting the shells \u2013 I knew before you finished explaining, because I had been there watching you. I\u2019m sorry, I didn\u2019t mean to be there, but I was.\u201d<\/p>\n
She looked at me, the redness in her eyes showed me that she was starting to cry;<\/p>\n
\u201cIt doesn\u2019t make sense, you can\u2019t know; you can\u2019t have seen my dream, it\u2019s just not possible. I don\u2019t want to think about the alternative\u2026 I like being able to explain my world. Maybe I was talking in my sleep and you heard me in yours; is that possible?\u201d<\/p>\n
I nodded. I knew what I believed, but I could see that she did not.<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, that must be it.\u201d<\/p>\n
