odd
i jolt awake once more, and for real this time. relief washes over me as i sit up on the bed, taking in the bright sight.
something feels different. but as i look around, i can't fathom what it is. everything looks exactly the same, and something feels odd.
i think i know who is missing here and no, i don't want to think of her. she probably decides to give me a break.
the hinges of the door squeak as someone enters, "michael clifford, i am assigned to assist you to our cafeteria. it's time for breakfast."
it's morning already?
nodding, i get off the bed and follow the woman in white anyway. she is probably a nurse here.
as i trail closely behind her down the hallways, i look to my left and right, finding more rooms and each has a transparent glass on the wall so people walking outside can see what they are doing.
it seems like my room has one, too. but i never realise its existence until now that i'm out of it.
"excuse me," i decide to speak, "but may i please know who got me in here in the first place?"
the woman turns around, and for a second i think i see a familiar look in her eyes as she sends me a small smile. she stares back ahead, opening a door for me to enter whilst she steps aside.
"you, michael." she nonchalantly says, "you put yourself in here."
