The soft rays of dawn filtered through the hotel room, casting a warm glow on the tangled sheets and scattered clothes that adorned the floor. As the sun peaked, disrupting the peaceful slumber, a mobile phone rang, shattering the tranquility of the morning.

Lily groaned, her head pounding in protest as she fumbled for her phone. The incessant ringing felt like an unwelcome intrusion, a harsh jolt into consciousness. Rubbing her temples, she squinted to find the mobile, annoyance etched across her disoriented features.

"If it's not an emergency, someone's going to regret waking me up this early," she muttered, her voice laden with irritation.

With a groan, Lily tried to sit up, only to be met with dizziness and a throbbing headache. The remnants of last night's revelry were like a fog in her mind, leaving her grappling to piece together the events of the evening.

The need for aspirin and coffee tugged at her senses, but another pressing urgency took precedence as she was dying to pee.
