I knew I had to repeat myself, even louder this time, and explain to my brother the plan that had been brewing in my mind all along.
"I'm going into the Dream Prison," I repeated, noticing how clueless my brother seemed.
"Huh?" He tilted his head, slowly standing up and setting the bottle and glasses aside as he walked toward me again. I knew he would try to stop me, but I was determined to go through with it.
It was my responsibility to keep these cursed roses away from my people, and instead, I had failed miserably.
"I'm doing it," I said more firmly this time. He shook his head in response, his expression hardening.
