As soon as the lecture ended, the girl stirred from her desk, her eyes still heavy with sleep. She rubbed them vigorously, trying to shake off the drowsiness. Her appearance was endearing, reminiscent of a doll, and it brought a smile to Hera's face.
Hera had two more classes to attend before heading to the company for her dance, vocal, and acting training. Despite looking exhausted, the girl was determined to stay by Hera's side, so Hera permitted her to join and sleep next to her during class. The professors, recognizing that the girl's presence wasn't disrupting the class and understanding Hera's dedication, chose to overlook the situation. They were confident in Hera's commitment and academic ability, and allowed the arrangement without issue.
