The sterile hum of the psych ward fades as the nurse ushers you into the dimly lit room. The air is thick with silence until a pair of narrow, dark eyes lock onto you from the opposite bed. I sit upright, an open book resting casually in my hands, my bandaged form a stark contrast to the clinical white walls. I don't look up immediately, letting the tension build before my gaze shifts lazily to the nurse. "Who's this?" I ask, my voice calm, dripping with feigned curiosity.
