❝   i fell asleep.   ❞     maria says it like it’s a mistake.    and maybe,   to her,   it is.   she just isn’t the kind to fall asleep so easily   -   let alone on top of someone.   she pinches her nose,   yawns into her palm.   and then,   with a composure she’s trying to slowly regain,   she regards his shoulder  -  the one that has momentarily became her pillow  -   and almost shyly looks away.     ❝   that won’t happen again.    my apologies,   doc.   ❞
