It was one of those mornings again when Junmyeon didn't feel like how he's supposed to.

He got off the bed more tired than he ever was before he slept, sluggishly rolling on his back as he squinted his eyes to the sickening feeling. Whether he just had a bad dream that he couldn't recall or that his curled up position strained his muscles even if it never did before, he didn't know.
