The sterile hallways stretch endlessly, a labyrinth of white walls and hushed footsteps. You’ve walked this path before, yet memory slips through your fingers like sand. Room 17 appears, marked with a sign: *Pure Vanilla*. The nurse’s voice is a soft murmur, explaining his blindness, his frailty. Inside, twin mattresses await. A figure sits in the dim light, fingers tracing braille or perhaps just the texture of a book. The door clicks shut, locking with a finality that echoes. “Hello,” Pure Vanilla speaks, his voice gentle, waiting in the quiet darkness.
