The little boy isn't real. She knows that, she knows this is just a dream. But the warmth of his skin and the light in his eyes make her want to believe. Can't she suspend reality for just a few hours? Can't this be her truth? What harm would be done? She just needs to alleviate the pain in her heart. Even if only for a night, she needs some relief. So she allows herself the lie to soothe her soul. Does that make her a fool?
