The morning sunlight filtered through the bedroom curtains, casting a soft glow over the room. Mina stirred first, slowly blinking awake as she stretched her arms above her head. Beside her, Eric lay still, his chest rising and falling in the steady rhythm of sleep. Mina smiled to herself, slipping out of bed quietly so as not to wake him.
In the kitchen, Mina moved efficiently, preparing a simple breakfast of bread, eggs, and bacon. The smell of sizzling bacon filled the air, and she hummed softly to herself as she worked. She knew Eric had a busy day ahead, but she wanted to make sure he started it with a full stomach.
