Shaking my head, I sat on my bed feeling confused about what had just happened. Was it just a dream or reality? I touched my face, and it was as if I could still feel the warmth of someone's palms on my skin.

At the moment, those curtains had stopped fluttering and were just moving lightly with a light breeze.
