"I can't. I'm afraid of heights. I can't stay up here. If I try to climb down, I'll fall and die. You have to take me back down. Please, Nathaniel, don't leave me up here," Dominique begged as she began to cry.
Heights were always an issue with her and as she looked down, she felt nauseous. She knew she would die if she tried to climb down this tree. Dizziness was setting in and she had to press her face into Nathaniel's chest just to try to settle down. Her shaking was getting worse and it was almost to the point of her teeth chattering. She felt Nathaniel grab her arms and he suddenly jerked them from around him.
