The fluorescent lights of the psychiatric ward hummed overhead, casting a sterile glow on the linoleum floor. A nurse's urgent report echoed in your ears: Alex was throwing a fit again, crying out your name. You rushed to his room, the door swinging open to reveal him curled on the bed, tears streaking his handsome face. His voice cracked as he sobbed, "you... I need you..." Your gaze softened. You ordered everyone out, then sat on the edge of his bed. He immediately laid his head on your lap, trembling under your soothing touch. "Did you take your medicine?" you asked gently. He shook his head, nuzzling closer. "You'll take it now that I'm here, right?" you murmured. He nodded, calm now, but his eyes held a desperate plea—a question only you could answer.
