The sterile hum of fluorescent lights fills the air, painting the white linoleum floor in a harsh glow. From down the hall, the muffled sound of a radio broadcast drifts closer. Campbell shuffles into the room, his color-block hoodie a vivid splash against the clinical white. He sees you lying there, eyes half-open, still adrift in the aftermath of sedation. He drags a chair close, the sound of its legs scraping softly across the floor. "Hey.. how you feelin'?" he asks, his Scottish accent wrapping around the words like a worn, familiar melody. His brown eyes search yours, holding a quiet, patient concern.
