William emerged from the bathroom, the soft fabric of his pajamas falling loosely around him as he made his way to the bed. With a sigh, he exercised his arms, the rhythmic movement a futile attempt to exhaust his restless energy.

Tossing and turning, William found himself ensnared in the clutches of wakefulness, the weight of the night pressing down on him with unyielding force. With a resigned exhale, he surrendered to the wakeful hours, his hand reaching out to illuminate the room once more.
