[Place: Hospital]

When I came out of a group therapy session, the sun was setting. I wondered what time it was, but I wasn't really keen on finding out. No one looked at time here. Date or day was meaningless. It wasn't important whether Tuesday came after Monday or Friday, or Sunday came after Wednesday. It seemed as if it was only yesterday that I had been admitted to the psychiatric ward---either yesterday, or several years ago.

Passing by the lounge, I heard a loud noise. "This is insane. Nobody is in their right mind. How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not crazy!"

I walked to my room, finally realizing it must be Friday today.

"I'm not crazy." This is what everyone says when they get here. After some times, we all accept the fact that we are. The only ones who insist otherwise are new patients. The only exception was that man who was yelling in the lounge now. That tall man with a blank expression who looked crazier than the rest of us. He mumbled constantly that he wasn't crazy and that he had come here of his own volition. It was a stupid thing to do. I could say he wasn't crazy, but thay would not change anything. We were all trapped here.

Friday was the day when he had a session in the outpatient ward. On that day, he screamed louder, as if feeling more unhinged, and ended up making everyone nettled or pissed off or doubtful---doubting their sanity and wondering how crazy they were and why they had become crazy.

Hearing his scream, I turned the corner only to bump into someone hard. I tried to cushion my fall to the ground with my hand, which sent a throbbing pain up to my shoulder. As I grabbed my wrist in pain with my other hand, someone uttered my name in anger. I looked up, and it was the idiot. "It got all messed up because of you."

Outraged, the idiot pointed to the door of the off-limits ward. The icon door was being closed with a clank.
