Jung Sora slowly opened her eyes.

Still groggy, she reached for her phone, which was blaring an alarm beside her pillow. After checking the time, she flopped back down onto the bed.

Without even turning off the alarm, she burrowed deeper into the blankets, a peaceful expression settling on her face as she drifted back to sleep.

The alarm, which had turned off on its own, blared again after a set time.

This time, she reached out without looking and expertly silenced it before pulling the blanket over her head again.

Ten minutes later.

♪♬♬♪♬♬

It wasn’t an alarm this time.

Her phone displayed a call from a contact saved as [Nagging Machine].

“Hello.”

[Sora-nim. It’s time for you to wake up.]

“Just ten more minutes…”

[No. Get up now.]

His firm tone made it clear that there was no room for negotiation. Jung Sora sighed quietly before replying.

“Alright, alright. I’m up. Thanks for the wake-up call, Ji-woong.”

Only then did she slowly sit up, stretching out her body.

“Hnngh— Haah!”

She rolled around on the soft blankets, loosening up her body before casually stripping off her clothes and heading to the bathroom.

Sssshhhhhh

She turned on the shower, checking the temperature with her toes before stepping under the warm water.

“Hmmm~♪”

A hum of contentment escaped her lips as water droplets trickled down her skin.

Then—

The droplets shivered.

They gathered into tiny, translucent figures, forming miniature water spirits that twirled around her, dancing in a graceful circle.

While Sora focused on scrubbing her body with a shower ball, the spirits meticulously washed her long hair, applying shampoo, treatment, and conditioner in perfect sequence.
