A Threatening Proposal

The morning sunshine streamed through the window, casting a shimmering light across the room. Nana, who had been complaining about the intrusive rays, suddenly jolted awake. Blinking sleep from her eyes, she noticed a sheet covering her small form, and her gaze shifted to Ty.

He was at a desk, face-planted down on a pile of papers left by Kirana. Realizing that he must have covered her up, Nana couldn't help but feel a bit shy. She muttered to herself, "Why does he make me so mad and confused at the same time?" With a soft sigh, she gave herself a gentle slap on the cheek, as if trying to shake off her own thoughts.

Walking up to Ty, who was still snoring atop the mound of papers, she tapped his head with her tiny hand. "Did you pass out or something?" she inquired, her voice carrying a mixture of curiosity and mild annoyance.
