The morning light, a harsh intrusion, forced Robert's eyes open. He blinked, the brightness making him want to retreat back into the comfortable darkness. The thought of getting up, of functioning, of the day's obligations, felt like a mountain he had to climb.

His daughter, Emily, came running into his room, her voice a shrill command. "Dad, get up! School!" Robert just groaned. He could feel the resistance building within him, the urge to remain still.

"Emily has Ms. Carter," his wife said, detailing the new teacher. "The Ms. Carter? From your senior year English class?" The news brought with it a sense of… weary resignation. He pictured Ms. Carter's meticulous grading and her detailed feedback. He felt the familiar desire to simply fade away.
