wepon | I've been remembering my dreams more lately

I don't clearly remember the dreams I had last night, but one moment stuck with me. I and someone else were watching two children (siblings) explore a haunted house. The sister was pulled into another dimension by a mobile door, and the brother was being menaced by both the door and a ghost. Then the sister slammed the door open and forcibly pulled herself out of the dimension, with great effort and obviously struggling, to reach her brother.

I couldn't look away. My companion noticed my rapt attention. Their voice was warm as they said, "Somebody once struggled to be there for you, didn't they?"

"No," I said, "not exactly."

So that's where my head is at today.
