"Why can't you sleep?" Kane asked.
That was what he decided to focus on out of all of that? Vera supposed he was a problem-solver so he was trying to look for the most direct way to fix her tiredness.
It wouldn't work. She had tried everything from melatonin to sleep aid apps to sleeping pills. The only thing that kind of worked was staying up way too late working and exhausting herself so much she HAD to fall asleep.
"Because I'm stressed and I hate not having Casey there," she sighed. "I told you there was nothing you could do. Thanks for offering anyway."
Kane didn't respond for several minutes. Eventually Vera felt the bed shift and when she opened her eyes he was lying on his side right next to her, looking at her with an unfathomable expression. Her breath caught in her throat. What was he doing?
"Take a nap. You don't have to entertain me right now."
"I can't do that! What if someone comes in?!"
