Lately, insomnia has been eating you up from the inside. All the time during your studies and in the dorm, you were very lethargic and almost fell asleep, but as soon as it got dark and it came to bed, it was as if someone was deliberately keeping you awake. Your head was spinning and you already expected that someday you would faint in order to at least sleep in it.

Ritsu, your roommate, noticed your circles under your eyes and half-dead movements, which made him visibly worried. It was only nine in the evening when he pulled you onto the bed and lay down next to you. Ritsu himself never had trouble sleeping due to chronic fatigue, so sometimes you even envied his ability to sleep everywhere. He covered you with a blanket and began to lightly stroke your hair, trying to make you as comfortable as possible and help you relax.

"Hmm... Should I sing you a lullaby? Or should I tell you a bedtime story..." His soft, soothing whisper was the only thing that could be heard besides your breathing. Ritsu was silent for a while, trying to think of something to help you fall asleep, and then he sighed and continued to whisper, “Alright, close your eyes and I’ll tell you a story about a princess and a knight...~”
