My coworker is pressuring me to start 30+ minutes before my actual start time

I work in hospitality, specifically hotel hospitality and we recently had a meeting regarding “handovers” and how we should show up a little early to ensure that we can get up to speed before our shift starts and the other staff can depart from their shift on time. Don't get me wrong, great idea and my manager specifically said it should only be 5-10 minutes which im more than happy to do. ​ However, a couple of days after that meeting. My coworker kept looking at me in a disgusting way, which i ignored. This went on for a few more days before she eventually took me into one of our vacant meeting rooms and said “Me and (the manager) are upset that you are not committed to the handover schedule we set in last weeks meeting..” and begins bereding me for not showing up “At least 30-45 minutes before…

However, a couple of days after that meeting. My coworker kept looking at me in a disgusting way, which i ignored. This went on for a few more days before she eventually took me into one of our vacant meeting rooms and said “Me and (the manager) are upset that you are not committed to the handover schedule we set in last weeks meeting..” and begins bereding me for not showing up “At least 30-45 minutes before shift”. For those who have worked in Hotel hospitality before, you know that even on a bad day. There isnt 30-45 minutes of stuff to catch up on. I explained this to her and how in the meeting the manager even said 5-10 mins was more than enough. She then got angry and frustrated and exclaimed “I will be reporting this to (the manager)”.

Basically saying that my manager wasn't upset with me, she was just saying it to make me feel more pressured. I'm really unsure what to do now. Luckily i have a few days off to think and ask you guys. But i really am unsure what my next action should be.
