His voice was deep and pleasant, but I had been sleeping so well lately that even his voice couldn't pull me from my slumber.

When he saw that I wasn't responding, he lightly patted my cheek. I instinctively nuzzled into his hand, mumbling, "I want to sleep a bit more."

I washed up and changed into my clothes in the bathroom. As I dressed, I noticed some redness and swelling.
