Hello!

So I suppose that to some people, the last chapter was quick and confusing.

So here's a quick explanation.

Ethan's POV

My brothers voice rung in my ear. "We need the money, Ethan." He mumbled, looking over at me with sad eyes.

So I agreed.

There I was sitting I front of a desk in a fancy office.

"Mr.Dolan, you're sure that you're okay with giving your brain up for science?"

I nod, looking down at my sweaty palms.

"Very well." He nods. "In this process, we will be attaching equipment to your brain to see your brain activity. We believe that this test will show us why humans dream...."

I nod, trying my best not to talk myself out of it.

"A downside though, we don't know what you will dream. You will remember your family and current life but everything done in the dream will be fake. It could be happy or traumatizing. You will not remember participating in this when you awake and the realization that it was all fake could set your brain into a tricky place."

I nod again. What's the worst thing that could happen.

It was a mistake.

The man wasn't real.

Victor wasn't real.

The injuries weren't real.

Octavia wasn't real.

That's when the tears fell.

I was in love with a girl I made up.
