Illustration: In a Japanese bedroom at night, a pajama-clad child is sliding their legs beneath the quilt of a futon laid on the tatami. Their eyes are still open, and one hand draws the quilt upward while their head lowers toward the pillow. A parent kneels beside the bedside lamp, ready to switch it off.
