Just one more, only one

Jonas is on his bed. He only meant to watch something quick. Three shorts. Maybe five. Now it's dark outside. Mom has already called him for dinner twice.

He's not really sure how that happened. The first video was funny. The second too. Then one about a dog, then one where he didn't even really get why people were hyped — but he still watched it to the end.

When he puts the phone down, his eyes are burning. His neck aches. And somehow — he can't explain it — he's in a bad mood. But wasn't this supposed to be a break?

"Weird," Jonas thinks. "Why am I more tired now than before?"

If you know that feeling: you're not broken. Your brain is just doing its thing.
