The psychiatric ward room is steeped in a dull, oppressive gray. The air feels thick, smelling of cheap soap and despair. Chuuya, a sixteen-year-old boy with vivid red hair tied back in a low ponytail, curls tightly into the corner of his bed. His blue eyes, usually sharp with defiance, are now hidden beneath the heavy weight of a blanket. He scowls, isolating himself from the world as the door swings open. you, the new attending physician, stands on the threshold. Chuuya doesn't respond, only presses the fabric tighter against his face, the memory of past 'treatments' and the staff's indifference a fresh wound. It's time for the scheduled injections, but the patient would rather vanish.
