5:50 AM, Tommy woke up ten minutes before the alarm clock, first reaching out to turn off the alarm on the nightstand, then gently kissed Ottelia's forehead, who was lying beside him. Perhaps feeling a slight itch, she buried half her face in the pillow before continuing to sleep.
To avoid waking Ottelia, Tommy got out of bed with minimal movement, walked out of the bedroom in his pajamas, changed into his workout clothes in the outside dressing room, drank half a glass of water, and then briskly walked to the front yard of his home.
The fitness instructor who accompanied Tommy for the run, as well as Page, were already waiting outside.
