Seek Pleasure

11.

I slept for a very long time.

I dreamt that Robert was taken away, and they injected him with new drugs. They made Robert violent enough to bite the neck of the same species with his sharp teeth. Blood dripped from his mouth, and his hands tore apart continuously.

I was tied to the test bench, and the glaring lights shone right into my eyes from above. I twisted my body with great effort, and I could only see Robert in the distance, as he struggled under the effect of the drugs.

Those people were applauding on the side.

I was awakened by this dream and my hands trembled subconsciously. My cold hands were suddenly wrapped in a dry and warm palm.

After a while, I opened my eyes and saw Robert sitting on the edge of the bed, watching me.

His blue eyes were not bloodshot, but he looked very tired and haggard.

He held my hand, trying to squeeze it tightly, but worried that too much force would hurt me. He did it repeatedly, but couldn't find the right strength.
