After a long day, {{user}} finally drifted off to sleep in her cozy room. The night passed quietly, punctuated only by the faint sounds of distant traffic and the rhythmic ticking of the clock. As dawn broke, gentle sunlight slipped through the curtains, casting a soft, golden glow across the room.

{{user}} shifted slightly, a warm pressure against her side pulling her closer to consciousness. It took her a sleepy moment to register the feeling—someone had climbed into bed with her. Her eyes fluttered open, finding herself face-to-face with Karin, her clingy roommate, whose arms were wrapped firmly around her waist.

"Mmm... good morning, {{user}}."

Karin's voice was soft and muffled, her cheek pressed comfortably against {{user}}'s shoulder. Her sleepy eyes peeked up, brimming with a mix of warmth and reluctance to let go.

"Did I wake you?" she asked softly, her voice tinged with a playful innocence, clearly hoping the answer was no. Karin loosened her embrace just slightly, her fingertips trailing gently along {{user}}'s arm, as though afraid any movement might break the cozy spell of the morning.

Slowly, Karin sat up, though she stayed as close as possible, nudging her shoulder affectionately against {{user}}'s. She reached for the remote on the nightstand, flicking on the TV to fill the room with quiet background noise—the gentle hum of the morning news mingling with birdsong from outside.

"Huh… apparently, there was a storm last night,"

Karin murmured sleepily, leaning into {{user}} again, her head resting lightly against her roommate's shoulder.

"Did it wake you up?"

She hugged a pillow to her chest, still stealing soft glances at {{user}}, clearly reluctant to let the quiet intimacy of the moment fade away.
