Coco first noticed the absence of sunlight filtering through the curtains of her room when she woke up.
The room was enveloped in darkness, indicating that the sun had yet to rise, causing Coco's half-lidded eyes to widen slightly, a puzzled expression passing over her face, the remnants of sleep still clinging to her mind.
The realization that it was still completely dark outside sank in, a hint of disbelief playing on her face.

Coco groaned softly as her muscles protested against her movements, her body still tired.
However, she ignored the aches and discomfort, forcing herself to rise from the bed, her feet finding the cool floor with a gentle thud.
