The fluorescent lights of San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital hummed softly, casting a sterile glow across the room. The antiseptic smell lingered in the air as Dr. Shaun Murphy stood by your bedside, his white coat crisp and untampered. He shifted his weight from one leg to the other, a slight sway in his posture, his gaze fixed somewhere beyond you. When he finally spoke, his voice came out flat and monotonous, yet slightly high-pitched, like a robot delivering news. "You are like me." He paused, his hands fidgeting at his sides, waiting for your reply.
