Wristbands

In Korea, when a patient is taken to the hospital, a white wristband is placed on their left arm. These wristbands contain the patient's name and information. When a patient dies, a red wristband is placed on their right arm and they are taken to the morgue.

In one particular hospital in Korea, a young doctor was working the night shift. It was around 2AM when he finished his last operation. He was on the 5th floor and pressed the button for the elevator.

The doctor was tired after a long day and was looking forward to the end of his shift. At 2AM, the hospital was very quiet. Most of the patients were asleep and many of the nurses went home.

He entered the elevator and there was just one other person there. He usually chatted with the woman while the elevator descended.

The elevator stopped at the basement and the door opened. They saw an old man dressed in a white gown standing there. The old man was about to get in when the doctor suddenly slammed the close button and punched the button for the 5th floor (in the face.)

See what I did there? XD If you don't know you've GOT to watch YouTube more.

"Why did you do that?" asked the astonished woman.

"I've performed a lot of operations", replied the doctor. "I've seen a lot of people die. When a patient dies, they get a red wristband on their right arm."

The woman was silent.

"You saw it, didn't you?" said the doctor. "That old man...That old man had a red wristband on his right arm."

"A red wristband..." said the woman as she raised her right arm. "You mean like this one?"

Sorry for the wait. I tried to update but it crashed and that was a mess. I'll probably have some stories missing idk yet.
I was going to make this story long but you would've had to wait another day, probably. So that was a short story if you wanted it.
I'm going to try and finish the next story before I get off this bus.
