Does it sound natural?
A:
You need to say –
– the boy finally admitted that he had just had an exciting dream –
– because it is too confusing if you leave out all of the connecting words.
Also, do you mean “just“ in the sense of – it just happened right now, or do you mean it in the sense of “merely“? Because this is also confusing – I would change it to merely or simply, if this is the meaning you are going for.
