Banking on Dreams

“Go into the vault and get the big bills,” John commanded.
Lisa hesitated. Her eyes moved anxiously to the open vault door; its heavy hinges cast shadows that blended into the darkness of the interior. She said in a soft voice, “I don’t like the vault. It gives me nightmares.”
John laughed cruelly. “Do you really expect me to believe you’re a bank teller who’s scared of bank vaults?”
Lisa nodded her head.
John waved his gun at her. “This is a robbery, and this gun is not a dream.”
