"Nagisa-san! Kindly monitor w26 please!"

Takebayashi shouted towards the bluenette from across the room, fumbling around with the stacks of paper on the desk.

"Roger that!"

Nagisa quickly did as asked, taking his clipboard and race walking towards ward 26

'It has been 3 months since I was offered to work here'

Nagisa thought as he opened the door, the large room oddly silenced as he walked in checking on everyone

'And I can proudly say that I have gotten used to it!'

Nagisa examined each patient thoroughly. Noting down any changes in behaviour, physical attributes and/or diet.

'Not to mention, I can hang out with Karma as long as my work is done!'

True to his word, once Nagisa finished noting down everything about the patients he happily skipped towards Karma's room.

The redhead grinned like an idiot as he watched Nagisa open the door and walk in.

"Hey Karma! How was your day?"

Nagisa asked, starting the conversation

"Nagi's here now so it just got better!"

Karma returned the bluenette's smile with his own.

"He's scratching his nails off on the glass wall. He's trying his best to get out..."

Rio, who was taking care of some papers, looked towards Dr. Koro.

"Who?"

After looking at his dark eyes however Rio instantly understood.

"Oh, him."

Silence fell on the two before Rio spoke up again

"Well, Okuda did state in her report about his nails and fingers being injured, I guess that's why. But, are you sure he's trying to get out?"

Koro looked through the papers in his hand before replying

"I'm not sure. But seeing as we have a new person in charge of w26 his behaviour isn't suprising. He has done this before..."

He finally looked Rio in the eye before continuing

"..hasn't he?"

Rio looked away before sighing

"He has scratched the wall mutliple times, yes, but not to the point of a serious injury as this."

Rio showed him pictures

"You can practically see his bones. It's honestly quite disturbing."

Koro looked at the picture with no emotion before looking at his computer

"Have Okuda fix it. I don't want any blood to be shed in that ward."

Rio took a step back

"Of course"

And head out the room

"So, Karma, how long have you been here?"

Nagisa decided to ask the red head

To which he was given no reply but simply a confused smile

"..... a long time I'm guessing huh?"

Nagisa mumbled to himself as he wrote a couple of notes on a piece of paper.

Seeing this Karma immidiately sprung from his seat.

"Nagi Nagi!"

He exclaimed as he wrapped his arms around Nagisa's shoulders

"What is it?"

Nagisa asked as he continued to write something.

"Wanna draw?"

Nagisa chuckled at that.

"Sure"

The bluenette stopped writing and went through his pocket.

He gave Karma a blue marker while he held a red one

"Koro-sensei said he didn't mind if we draw on the floor or the walls as long as it's not the furniture but do you want to draw on a piece of paper instead?"

Nagisa suggested to which Karma shook his head

"I might lose it if it's on paper, you know! But if it's on the floor or the walls I won't ever lose it!"

Nagisa smiled at that

What about when you get out of here then?

The two proceed to sit on the bed while drawing on the wall beside it.

Nagisa was sitting on Karma's lap as the two filled the wall with their drawings

The two aren't artists but for some reason the combination of the red and blue drawings all over the wall looked beautiful.

And in the center of all those doodles was the two of them drawn according to the color.

Nagisa giggled before glancing at Karma, smiling.

The red head returned it aswell with a grin.

After drawing a few more here and there Nagisa slumped back on Karma's chest while Karma buried his head on Nagisa's hair.

The two slowly closed their eyes and fell asleep.

"Nagisa-san, Na-gi-sa-san."

The bluenette woke up to a gentle whisper.

He rubbed his eyes before looking up at Okuda who was shaking his shoulder.

"Okuda-san? What time is it?"

Was the first thing he asked as he looked towards Karma who was still asleep next to him.

"It's still early but you were supposed to meet up with Koro-sensei you know"

Ah, the daily report on the patients.....

"Sorry about that, I guess I got tired while hanging out with Karma"

Okuda giggled while looking at the wall filled with doodles

"I can tell"

Nagisa yawned before slowly getting up, making sure not to wake up the red head

"By the way, if you were trying to wake me up why were you whispering?"

Okuda glanced at him before letting out a nervous laugh

"I couldn't risk waking Karma up before you did, he might get mad at me for taking you away"

It wasn't meant to be a tease, she was simply being honest, but despite that Nagisa couldn't help but be slightly embarrased.

"Well then, shall we go now?"

Okuda asked, already outside Karma's glass room

"Sure, hold on just for a minute"

He grabbed the markers before writing something on Karma's hand

It's not permanent so it's fine

Before walking outside, locking the door and going towards the entrance of ward 26.

"What did you do to Karma's hand?"

Okuda asked curiously

"Just left a simple small note, he might panic waking up without me"

Okuda giggled at Nagisa's reply before saying "I can see that happening"

The two left the ward without turning back that they didn't notice a pair of eyes glaring at Karma's hand, at the message Nagisa left.

See you tomorrow
