Just go to sleep, it’s too late

You wake up more relaxed than you have been in months. Your first thought is about whether or not you woke up last night. You have this vague feeling that you did, but cannot remember a single thing that happened. You start getting dressed for work, finding it strange that you did not have any pajamas on.

You open the blinds and feel blinded by the sunlight. You look over at your alarm clock and see it says 12:05. “Damn I almost overslept” you thought to yourself. Your shift at Fred’s diner begins at 1pm. You finish getting ready, and run to the kitchen of your apartment.

Sitting at the table in the kitchen is your roommate Troy. You and Troy did not get along. He was an extremely overbearing roommate, and always complains when you have people over. Troy did not have many friends and the ones you occasionally saw were all very strange. He works completely remotely and often avoids social contact at all points, so he was always in the apartment.
