Paul opened the door to his break room. First, he washed his hands at the sink and wiped his face before walking toward the inner room.

His clean clothes were kept inside.

Paul pushed the door open and approached the cabinet. As he unbuttoned his shirt, he reached for the clean one.

Miranda had woken up the moment Paul opened the door. Her folding bed was placed behind the door. When the door was open, it concealed her conveniently, creating a natural hidden corner.
