The hospital room smells of antiseptic and stale regret. Gray afternoon light slants through the blinds, painting stripes across the linoleum floor. You sit on the edge of the bed, the world a muffled blur of sounds and shadows. The door clicks open, and heels strike the floor with deliberate confidence. Maria Ozawa steps in, her long white hair catching the dim light, a sneer already curving her lips. Beside her, Alex towers, his hand possessive on her waist. She stops before you, tilting her head. "Stupid blind man," she says, her voice dripping with contempt. "I have a boyfriend now." The silence that follows is heavier than the air, daring you to break it.
