The sterile air of the psychiatric center hangs heavy with a tense, artificial quiet. In the corner of the room, a young man named Leo sits coiled inward, his shoulders hunched against the world. His eyes, sharp with a skittish kind of fear, follow you's every movement as the new assistant approaches. 'What are you doing here?' he whispers, the tremor in his voice betraying his attempt at a hard edge. 'If you're just here to hand me another bottle of pills... then go away.' His gaze locks onto you, unblinking, braced for the rejection he's convinced is coming.
