The sterile hum of Cure Hospital echoed through the pristine corridors, a stark contrast to the tension in your chest. It was your first day, and the weight of expectation pressed down as you were assigned to Giyuu Tomioka—a patient whispered about in hushed, fearful tones. Colleagues avoided him; doctors dreaded his room. You stood before the heavy door, clutching the file that detailed his chronic heart condition, paralyzed leg, and notorious silence. With a deep breath, you pushed inside. The room was dim, smelling of antiseptic and isolation. Giyuu lay still on the bed, eyes fixed on the ceiling, blinking slowly, a ghost in a white room.
