I have no choice, I mean.. the good part is that it's near and I'll earn money. Working at a mental hospital is almost the same as normal hospitals, right?

Like putting them to bed when its dark, setting the bed, giving them food, and I'm sure there are guards all around if anything happens, I mean, what possibly could go wrong?

I made my decision and called the number. As I talked to the reception they quickly agreed and hired me.

I smiled like an idiot! I FINALLY GOT A JOB! I stood up and started to hop while running around my apartment, this was the best day ever!

They said I could start tomorrow which I was perfectly fine with, the sooner I work, the sooner I will get paid.

They asked me to come in really early because they needed to give me a tour without any patients walking around.

I slept with a smile on my face. The alarm rang and I quickly turned it off, I wasn't even feeling tired or lazy, I had the spirit. Tuesday morning, the day I finally work after weeks of doing nothing. I decided to dress in white, I know i'll be getting a uniform but still.

When I was done I locked the door and made my way to the place, it took about thirty minutes but I didn't mind.

I finally caught my eye on this huge grey brick building which was surrounded by big black fences nettles on the top, probably so no patients can escape.

The windows had bars on them, there was a green garden next to the entrance. I rang the doorbell and looked at the camera which was above. I heard a women's voice through a speaker next to me, it was familiar to the one I talked to yesterday on the phone.

"Yes?"

"I'm the one who wanted to apply for a job here" I said through the microphone.

"Come in" she said. There was a click which was probably the gate as it unlocked. I pushed it open and walked inside. When I reached the reception, the woman smiled at me and pointed at a door which read 'STAFF' .As I walked inside, I see a person that looked around my age. She turned towards me with a big grin.

"Hi! You must be the new assistant!  Nice to meet you. I'm jiyoung, what's your name?" She introduced herself.

I shook her hand "(Y/N), it's nice to meet you too" I replied.

After having a short casual conversation, I wore my new uniform and then, she decided to finally give me a tour around this building.

The place looked very.. abandoned and kinda haunting but I guess it's because there's no one here since they are all sleeping.

"This is the cafeteria, this is the crafting room where some patients draw and craft, this room is just a chill room" she pointed at a massive room filled with tables and sofas, there were around five TVs on the wall. Damn.

We walked across a room with a big red metal door. It looked as if she decided to ignore it?

"Hey, what about this room?" I asked her.

She hesitated and her face went dark "Um.. well.. that room is called the blank room, it's for those who I guess, don't behave good" she said.

I looked at it more "don't behave good?"

"Yeah.. but that's a rare case, we give the patients their medicine so they don't usually end up here, don't worry! This place is completely safe, this room isn't our business, it's the guards."

I nodded as she continued the tour.

"Let me introduce you to the patients and a little about themselves like their names and their past lives."

We were in the middle of the dorms.
"Room 67 consists of a guy named Kim Taehyung, storys say he caught his father drunk and so Taehyung had a rant and stabbed him to death, as for the other guy, that's Jeon jungkook, he's one of the new patients here. He had a mental illness that we just recently found out and he's been living in the normal world all these years without knowing." Jiyoung said as I looked through the window.
