The clock glows red. Emma tosses, turns, punches her pillow. She picks up her phone, scrolls past doom, past memes, past exes. Finally, she opens a meditation app: SLEEPWELL .
Silence for three full seconds.
“Welcome to Sleepwell. Breathe in… one, two, three. Breathe out… feel the weight of the day leaving your body.” good night short film
Emma’s hands shake. She tries to turn off the phone. The screen stays on. The voice continues, warm but now with a razor edge. The clock glows red

Emma, paralyzed, closes her eyes.
Emma follows along. She relaxes. Her eyelids flutter.
