Patient 734Ben sat in a corner questioning himself.
"What did I do wrong?
I'm almost certain I didn't do anything, do they know I'm just a ghost? What will happen to me?"
Thoughts crowded his brain like smoke around a burning forest.
He suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Come in.." he said in a shaky voice, almost as if he were going to cry.A tall man with blue-green eyes slowly walked into the room with a clipboard in hand. He closed the door behind him.
He took a look at ben.
"Are you okay?" He asked
"yes, I'm fine." Ben gazed at the ground. "What did you come in here to do?"
"Oh, I came in here to tell you it's bathing time. I already filled the bathtub for yo-" the assistant was abruptly cut off by Ben shouting.
"NO. NONONO. I REFUSE TO BATHE. IM NO FAN OF WATER, YA KNOW."
The tall man paused for a second.
"...really? Why's that?"
Ben hesitated before answering, in fear of the mans response.
"I..I drowned a few years back.."
"That's impossible" the man stated
"When you drown, your organs burst, including your lungs. Your heart also."
"Exactly." Ben mumbled, slightly annoyed.
"IMPOSSIBLE. YOU'D BE DEAD." The blue-green eyed man shouted angrily.
Ben grabbed the mans hand and placed it on his chest, where his heart would be.
"You don't feel a beat, do you?"
