âDaddy, I had a bad dream.â You blink your eyes and pull up on your elbows. Your clock glows red in the darknessâitâs 3:23.
âDo you want to climb into bed and tell me about it?â
âNo, Daddy.â

âWhy not sweetie?â
âBecause in my dream, when I told you about the dream, the thing wearing Mommyâs skin sat up.â For a moment, you feel paralyzed; you canât take your eyes off of your daughter. The covers behind you begin to shift.
