The sunlight outside the window faded bit by bit, and the bright lights in the room flickered on. When Alvin Morgan pushed open the door to Chester Greene's office, he saw the back of Aurora Sinclair, diligently doing her homework.
Across from her, Beta Morgan had long since dozed off, looking incredibly foolish as he slept.
Alvin cleared his throat twice. Beta's eyes shot open, and he scrambled to his feet, his gaze still hazy and bewildered with sleep.
Aurora Sinclair glanced back at him, gave a polite greeting, then turned back to her homework.
"Boss... you're here!" Beta said, snapping fully awake and quickly standing at attention.
'I'm so dead. The boss caught me sleeping on the job.'
He cast a pleading look at Benjamin Morgan, who was standing behind Alvin.
"Go wash your face!"
Beta Morgan wiped his mouth, his eyes filled with embarrassment, and immediately jogged out of the room.
