"George Smith, the new assistant for Dr Richardson," I said to the register.

"Mr Smith, what a pleasure to finally meet you! This way, please"

I followed her further into the metal facility, looking at my surrounding trying to remember as much as I can. Today's my first day to work here after being transferred from my old place. Dr Richardson a.k.a Blake is one of my best friends hence why I wasn't as sad to be transferred.

"This is Dr Richardson's room, and that one is your room."

"Thank you" I politely said.

"Feel free to ask me any question." She flashed me another smile before leaving me alone in front of a wide white door. Should I knock? Or just invite myself in?
I choose the former and knocked on the door lightly.

"Come on in!" A familiar voice said. I opened the door slowly and peeks my head in.

"Hey, G! Come on in, mate!" Blake greeted me. I dragged myself into the room, noticing a blonde boy sitting across Blake. I saw his eyes following my every move intensely as a slight smirk plastered on his face. I stood beside Blake timidly, locking my eyes with the blonde boy.

"Alright, I'll see you again after lunch, you're dismissed," Blake said to the blonde boy. His smirk widened, shamelessly throwing me a wink before he finally leaves the room. Blake noticed my awkwardness, chuckling lowly at how I act.

"That's Reece Bibby, 21 years old, and one of my hardest patient."

"Why is he here?"

"We still got no clue. He admitted himself 5 months ago, saying that he's a psycho and have killed many people, but couldn't find any proof to that even after many, many investigations along with plenty of interrogation. We offered to set him free since there's no proof for his word, but he remains on his ground and insists that he want, no scratch that, he needs to stay here. Most of the psychiatrist gave up on him barely 2 months after he's here, but I saw him as a challenge so I take over."

"And yet he still hasn't told you even one bit?" I asked and he sighed heavily before nodding his head. I smiled in condolence at him but he just lights up again.

"But that's okay though, he's a pretty cool guy aside from saying that he's a psycho, easy to handle too"

"But you said he's your hardest patient?" I asked confusedly.

"Indeed, but that just because he doesn't want to open up about why he admitted himself 5 months ago, other than that he's alright."

"Has he... you know, creating a scene or something that possibly link to why he admitted himself?"

"No, that's another reason why I called him my hardest patient too. He's way too calm and obedient to be counted as a psycho that took many people's lives."

"That's way too suspicious for me, to be honest. I mean, isn't that exactly how a psychopath live their life? They're emotionless and heartless and that blondie being always way too calm and obedient just prove himself to me that he's an actual psycho."

"I know, G. But I even challenge him to kill me a few times by giving him some revolver and knives, but he didn't react. He just laughed, saying that I was being silly before laughing again."

"Obviously he wouldn't do that to you, you silly! That would be way too exposed, it's not fun"

"How could you know it's not fun? Are you secretly a psycho, G?" Blake teased me.
