Eyes fluttered open as sleep slowly left, eliciting a soft yawn from the brown-haired woman laying sideways on her bed. Mina blinked a few times to adjust her eyes with the darkness, one hand groping the bedside counter to look at her phone.

It's five in the morning.

Perfect. Too early yet Mina knows she won't be able to return to sleep.

A pressure on her lower stomach reminds her of a matter she needs to take care. She lets out a sigh as she grew more awake, slowly wiggling her way out of the comforter. The omega moved with slight difficulty, considering her condition, but managed to get up anyway. Her feet found her slippers and she turned back a bit to smile at the still sleeping form of her alpha.

"Good morning, Momoring," she whispers, carefully low so she won't wake Momo up.

Mina holds her breath when Momo grumbled, thinking that she had disturbed her, but sighed in relief as Momo curled to her side, wrapping herself with the comforter. The omega smiled in contentment and she pushed herself up with her hands. She wobbled for a bit before she succeeded in balancing herself.

Combing her tousled hair, Mina slowly waddled out of the bedroom she shares with Momo. The bathroom light was left turned on all night because Momo is being a worrywart, yet Mina was glad she doesn't need to grope on the dark just to find the switch. The brown-haired omega saunters to the living area once she finished her now dawn-ritual.

An itch of her throat reminds her that she hasn't drink any drop of water since waking up. So she wandered further into the house, slippers made soft rubber sounds as she approaches the kitchen. She took the kettle from above the stove, filled it with water from the tap before returning it to its previous position then turned on the nob.

The warmth from the small fire made Mina sighs. It's nearly winter, and even if they have their heater on full force, Mina can't help but to feels cold being all alone in the house. Momo usually hovers around to provide her warmth with the dancer's naturally high body temperature, but she has been working hard and Mina feels bad if she wakes Momo up just to accompany her making some beverages.

Reaching out to the upper shelf to get her favorite mug, Mina starts to regret not taking Momo with her. It's already hard enough for her to reach the top shelf vertically, but now she needs to reach it diagonally and she blames herself for her lack of height. She needs to tell Momo (and herself, actually) to never put her mug on the top shelf anymore.

Still, she managed to grasp the handle of the purple mug with a cute penguin printed on its side, and she exhales in relief as she doesn't need to stretch her body even longer. Mina decided she'll make herself a lemon ginger blend of tea. It's warm, caffeine-less, and it helps her relax despite the gradually reclining amount of sleep she has.

Mina sat on one of the dining chairs as she waits for the water to boil. The omega idly played with her spoon, mind wandering off somewhere before she suddenly opts to add honey into her tea. She silently stood up and searches for the jar of honey, moaning in annoyance once she remembers that Momo had put the jar on the shelf adjacent to where she grabbed her mug earlier.

Courtesy to her for when she used to crave for honey. Momo had scolded her when the alpha found Mina sitting on the couch, just finished a one-litre jar of honey on herself while Momo left for work. Since then, Momo put the honey jar on the very top shelf to prevent Mina from bloating herself up with the sweet gooey substance.
