I woke up from a nightmare with kick and shout. Hugged the pillow tight despite acrid stench of sweating it over the night. I stirred under the heavy cover. Morning was peeking in through the window, but I couldn't tell the time. I hoped that I will have some time to lazy about, but then my spine tingled with discomfort.
I moved in my bed and looked at Lela at the door. She was bringing two cups of coffee and a smile. Tingling subsided leaving only itch.
"I told you not to stay up late", she giggled as she passed my cup to me.
"Hail alien" I scoffed.
"You are really looking for trouble, are you?" she smiled and slurped the sip, whacking my knee playfully. "Down that coffe, then off to wash your theet, else you get another zap!"
