Night Vultures

Somehow it feels like a curse. Both Ajib and Liya have nightmares. Liya stopped having nightmares, screaming in the middle of the night until before 30months. Unfortunately, Ajib still has to pull through at 38months. At first, I thought this could be they have lots to share and unable to express themselves. Could be true for Liya. The moment she could construct a full sentence, no more waking up crying, sobbing, struggling and searching for something.

I guess Ajib needs more time. Maybe while all learning being transferred to long term memory, flashes of them become nightmares for Ajib. Boys develope their speech at a slower rate compared to girls.
