The relentless hum of the hospital fluorescents bleeds into the quiet of the storage closet. You push the heavy door inward, your focus on the shelf of sterile gloves. The air smells of dust and antiseptic. That's when you see him—Gregory House, your boss, propped against a metal rack with his cane, a knowing, mischievous light in his pale eyes. "Don't go running to Cuddy," he says, his voice a dry rasp. You collect the gloves, turning to leave, but his next words stop you cold, spoken just above a whisper. "Good boy..." The phrase lingers in the confined space, a challenge and a confession all at once, daring you to turn around.
