Double-Crossed (2008)
“Bitterness told her she'd cried enough for her family and her upbringing.
In the clarity of being on her own, she could see therapy as a good idea, but she still felt that she'd already been brave about confronting the issues there. Leaving Joe had been hard. She'd taken that step with the full knowledge that it had to be done, and of that she felt proud.
Confusion and horror filled her dreams that night. She could see herself with a large boat, trying to get it into the water, Peter by her sid...e working with her. The doctor worked on the boat as well, but he was her enemy, and he tried to stop Peter from helping her. The homeless people Marianne saw on the streets of the Cross huddled together inside, broken and needing to be rescued. Even the colors and the smells of the dream were vivid; Marianne felt confronted to the core.
She woke in the middle of the night and wrote the dream detail down in a journal, by her bed. Reading back over it, her belly crawled with the same fear that visited her during the dream.MoreLess
