I dreamed of my husband who we have a very strained relationship. He was aggressive on the dream pushing my daughter aside with anger. I hit on the middle to avoid that he hit her. He then went to a room screams as a demented person. When he se out, he had a glass contained and smashed it. Small pieces of glass scattered everywhere even on us- my mother who is deceased, my daughter and I. He was covered all his chest and beer stomach with the pieces of glass. He continued his erratic screaming. I pushed my mother and daughter towards the door telling them they had to leave for safety. I was going to call my sister to ask her if the could stay. My mother didn’t want to leave fearing for my safety. I told her I would be fine. I needed her to go not only for her safety but so she could ensure Em would arrive safety since a trip without stop for Ohio was almost impossible on such short notice. We went outside. All was pitch black. It was night but the darkness was very very strange and a silence that was abnormal. Suddenly the were no longer there. Before that my daughter was concerned about our pets. I returned to see how I could take the with me when my Tuscan arrived this time he came out from the kitchen with an extremely long with teeth like blade knife. He announced he was going to kill means how Koch behaved me. I was terrified and started running trying to at least take one of the pets. I screamed wildly for help as I run out of the house. It was still pitch black but could see the neighbor houses. I ran furiously but my husband even though in real life is always complaining of aches was running as an athlete getting closer too fast. I continued screaming for help as I turned a corner looking to see if any of the houses had light to known for help. All was silence as all the neighbors had disappeared. It was only my demented husband getting closer with the knife that became larger as he got near me.
