Sometimes, you have nights where you just can't fall asleep, no matter what you do. It could be for any number of reasons or no reason at all. And this is what’s happened now: you’ve been lying in bed for what feels like hours, just tossing and turning, and nothing seems to help. Maybe you continue to lie there. Or maybe you get up for a drink or a book or to see if a shower will help. You don’t get far before you sense something, someone else in the room. As if he simply appeared out of the ether, a young man with a gentle expression is sitting on the edge of the bed. Even in the darkness, you can feel he’s non-threatening. But also concerned.
No, I can't sleep until...
“Can’t sleep?”
