I left his room with a small smile on my face, remembering the way his smile widened after I spilt out my name. Well, I guess he's not as emotionless as I thought he was.
I walked straight to my room, putting the tray on the shelf. I sat down on my swivel chair, continuing my job. It was an easy task, I just need to type Blake's patients' name, their disease, their progress, and make a conclusion out of it.
I came across Reece's file, putting more attention to it and examining it carefully.

Name: Reece Jamie Bibby DOB: Accrington, 13th August 1998 Admitted: 28th October2019 Disease(s): Psychotic, Sociopathic, Severe Insomniac, Minor Bipolar Disorder
I read through his progress that is actually non-existent since he barely showed anything, sighing heavily at the sudden weight on my shoulder. Working for this blondie obviously gonna be hard, but I need to, I have to do it for Blake.
I closed his file and then shut my computer down before leaving my room and walks towards the dining hall, remembering that it's dinner time by now. I waited in the queue, grabbed my meal and then sat at the far corner, distancing myself from the patients and other crew. I don't know where Blake is, but he was probably busy with something more important than just having dinner.
I started to eat my meal while scrolling on my phone carelessly, texting my mum and telling her that I won't be back before the weekend. Since I'm Blake assistant now, I'm not allowed to leave the facility unless it's weekend. I got more papers, more responsibilities, and obviously also more stresses. I rubbed the bridge of my nose exhaustedly before suddenly feeling someone appears in front of me.
I looked up and see Reece with his smug smirk planted on his face. I sighed again, recalling his file and progress and Blake's words.
"Hi, Reece" I greeted him half-heartily.
"Why don't you join the other nurses or doctors?"
"Nothing, I just feel like being alone"
"Oh? Sorry to disturb then. I can just go find another table" He said, quickly standing up.
"No, it's fine. A lil company won't hurt, come sit back down" I said, flashing him a small smile in reassurance. He sat back down and we start to eat in silence. Well that, before he took me off guard by his question.
"What's your sexuality?" I almost get chocked by his question but I played it off really well.
"I don't label myself."
"Good, the real 'don't try it 'till you knock it', that's cool!"
"Why did you ask?"
"Just curious" And then, it was silence again.
"How old are you, Reece?" I asked dumbly.
"I bet you already knew"
"Might as well play it dumb when you just asked me about my sexuality"
"Fair enough, I'm 21st, what about you?"
"Is this some kind of 20 questions or what?"
"Maybe"
"I'm 20th,"
"You're still young"
"So are you"
"What's your full name?"
"George Steffen Gresley Smith"
"Reece Jamie Bibby, nice to properly introduce myself" He stretched out his hand and I gladly shook it.
"Tell me about yourself, George"
"You knew my name, my age, and my sexuality, what else out there?"
"I don't know. Your family maybe or your life in general. I don't know. Just ramble and I'll listen"
"Alright so uh... I'm an only child, I was born and grew up in this city, I'm a very quiet and shy person, I barely have any friends, and my last relationship was 2 years ago. Your turn,"
"You knew my name, you knew my age, I'm gay, I have a sister, I was born in Accrington, I grew up from place to places. I'm a loud person, as you can already tell and my last relationship was none existent, I don't date. The whole relationship was just bullshit for me, it just happens in novel and movie, not in real life, so why would you believe in something that's not even real?"
"Wow, that was... surprising."
"Thank you" He simply replied with a small smile, not a smirk but actually looked like a genuine smile.
"How do you-"
"Don't talk about me admitting myself, please"
"No, that's not what I wanna ask. How do you know that love is not real?"
"Sorry to assumed. But to answer your question, I just never found proof that proved love is real. For example, everybody said that your parents will love you no matter what because you're their child, the gift from their love, but my dad run away after he knew my mum was pregnant with me, and my mum remarried to another man and then got my sister but she completely forgot that I exist. She abandoned me to my alcoholic aunty which also dumped me to a foster house, that explains why I grew up from place to places right?" I nodded my head as he raised his eyebrow at me, watching him patiently for him to continue.
"I met this boy when I was 16. He said that he loves me to pieces no matter how broken my family are I remember him begging to me so I would say yes to be his boyfriend, but as I said, I don't date. Therefore, I keep declining it again and again. On my 17th Birthday party, I invited all my friends to my new parents' house and I found him having a threesome with my friend and best friend and when he saw me, he showed no guilt at all. The rest guys I met basically the same if not more or less, so yeah, I don't believe in love. It's just pure bullshit! Love is a just transaction, we can turn it on and we can turn it off" I was completely flabbergasted by his answer. I didn't expect it at all, moreover from someone like him (no offence though).
I kept my mouth shut for the rest of the dinner, not knowing what else to say after his really heavy words. I caught him looking at me a few times, but say nothing to interfere with my thought. The dinner finally done, passed by me thinking very hardly while Reece staring at me. We both got up at the same time, making it harder for me to avoid him.
"Oh and George?" I raised my eyebrows at him, waiting for him to continue.
"Even though I don't believe in love, doesn't mean I don't have a soft spot for someone that caught my attention."
