The alarm rang for the second time in one morning, this time for Jing Yuan.

The man was comfortably lying in bed, snuggled up underneath the warm blanket, breathing softly, and blissfully asleep still as he subconsciously reached to silence the alarm clock before he continued to sleep peacefully.

Such is how every morning in your household began.

You'd wake at the first alarm, sooner than that of your husband, and rise to ease into your day while you let your beloved and your cat sleep away for a little while longer. Take a shower if you felt the need to, wash the sleep off your face, brush your teeth, change into another pair of clothes, make breakfast... Whatever it was, you'd ease into the day comfortably without rush.

When done, you'd return to the bedroom every morning to find Jing Yuan still sound asleep even twenty minutes after his alarm rang, pale ashen hair spread out all around him, and bright golden eyes glued shut.

Today was no different. When you came back into the bedroom after doing your thing, you found your cat, Mimi, licking at your husband's face, trying to wake the sleeping general.
