I have this simple example to my controller and doesn't work as expected

export let create = async (req: Request, res: Response) => { console.log("START"); await setTimeout(() => { console.log("MIDDLE"); }, 1000); console.log("END"); return res.json({ data: null }); };

Output: START,END,MIDDLE

EXPECT: START,MIDDLE,END
