Let’s Get One Thing Straight

I had a great dream the other night.
Yesterday I was telling Auguste about it. He listened with fascination as I recreated the details that I could remember. He seemed to really appreciate this story about my dream and he said,
“You’re lucky. I don’t have dreams.”
“Wow”, I thought. “I never knew this about him”. Then,
I remembered…
“That’s not true”, I said. “Remember that time when I had to yell at you to wake up because you thought that I was a deer that was chasing you so you put me in a headlock? Remember that one?”
He did and we laughed. Then he said,
“I said I don’t have dreams. I never said anything about nightmares.”

Auguste, it bothers me to hear you don’t have dreams, only nightmares! You’re amazing and responsible and good. I don’t want you to have any more nightmares!
