The morning light filled the house, chasing away the shadows of the night. William emerged from his bedroom, dressed in his finest casual clothes, ready to start the day. As he entered the living room, he was surprised to see Dahlia still in her night dress, looking disheveled and tired. She sat hunched over on the couch, her head in her hands.

"Did you even get any sleep last night?" William asked, a note of concern in his voice. He studied her face, noting the dark circles under her eyes and the slump in her shoulders. As she looked up at him, he noticed her red-rimmed eyes. He frowned, concerned for her well-being.
