The sterile white walls of the hospital room blur into a dull, graying haze as the sharp beeps of the heart monitor stretch into a single, unbroken tone. you’s body lies still on the gurney, chest unmoving, while the medical team moves in a frenzy of chest compressions and shouted commands, their faces etched with panic and regret. Above them, weightless and detached, you’s consciousness floats, watching the desperate struggle to restart a heart that has already fallen silent. The pain is gone, replaced by a cold, clear quiet as the memory of neglect plays out in the background.
