Chapter 14

“ALL RIGHT, MR. BRYCE. Let’s start deciphering your dream. It has answers to all of your questions.”

“Wait!? The wet dream has all the answers?” Todd is confused, and so am I.

“It’s much more than a wet dream. It’s the reflection of Mr. Bryce’s past, his life choices, innermost desires, and regrets. It has all the elements. That dream was his life in a nutshell.”

“I don’t understand,” I rub my forehead with my thumb and index finger, trying to make sense of Professor Able’s rambling.

“I’ll explain. The home you saw in your dream was your family home in Chicago. That’s where you grew up and saw your parents hopelessly in love with each other. A child’s brain is like a sponge, Mr. Bryce. It absorbs the feeling around the person, and in your case, it soaks the feeling of love that your parents have. That’s what made you romantic at heart.”

“Romantic?!” Todd laughs at the thought of me as romantic and almost fall out of the recliner. “Did he just say romantic?”

“Oh, go on. Take your time,” Professor Able says. “I have nowhere to be—or, have I?”

“Shut up Todd!” Jeremy yells. “Professor Able is a busy man. Stop wasting his time!”

“Did you call me by my name?” Todd grinds his teeth and stands up, demanding some respect by intimidation.

I think it’s the first time Jeremy has called Todd by his first name, and it’s not sitting well with him.

“It’s your name, isn’t it?” I lean back on the couch and folds my arms before my chest to answer on Jeremy’s behalf. “You can say to me if you have any problem with it.”

“Nope, I am fine.” He sits back down as quickly as he rose.

That’s what I thought. He is a pussy!

“Please go on, Professor Able,” Jeremy says, interrupting my staredown.

“As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted by Todd . . .”

Professor Able is also calling Todd by his name now. The courtesy is out of the window now.

“. . . you were romantic at heart. But when Patty Lawrence molested you, it took a toll on your young mind. You couldn’t understand how to feel. Your emotions were hurt. You became depressed. And when Ruby asked you out on a date, it became very clear to you that you had something that girls were attracted to—a magnetic personality. You started doing to girls what Patty did to you.”

“Molestation?!” I say, shuddering. “Thankfully, that’s where you are wrong, Professor Able. I am not on the sex offender list. I checked.”

“You got lucky somehow. You could have easily landed on it.”

“What are trying to say, Professor?” Jeremy seeks some clarification before I can do the same.

“He started hurting girls, not physically or sexually, but emotionally. I believe he was never in a long-term relationship or just any relationship. Wasn’t he, Todd?”.

“You are right on that one,” Todd says, instantly. “Mostly one-night stands, and if the girl is really sexy, it could stretch into a week-long relationship, and then, it’s not you, it’s me.
