"Where are we going?" Marcus asked as Jacky tried to rush him out of bed, pulling him by his arms even though all he wanted to do was sleep.
He tried to get away, gently wriggling himself out of her grip, and then covered his body with the blanket and a pillow on his head. He had no plans to get out of bed soon.
"We are going out today. You still owe me one." Jacky slapped him by the shoulder, trying to get his attention. Then, she finally gave up and stood up.
He thought she did, but when he peeked underneath the pillows. He saw her. She was staring at him, placing her hands on her waist like a drill sergeant, not happy with her soldier.

He pulled the cover away from his body and crawled out of bed, planning to go to the bathroom. But suddenly, he changed his mind as his feet shifted in a different direction.
