1. how he survived

ASH
i took a breath. through my nose and i felt my chest rise. what was happening? last thing i remember i was in a library, a familiar library. EIJI.
i slowly opened my eyes they were sticky almost like they'd been glued shut, heavy aswell. i could hear a machine beeping faintly, it was dark, early morning? late night? what happened!? i looked down i was covered by a pale blue blanket, i was wearing a blue and white gown. spotty. tubes coming out of my nose oxygen? i lifted my hand to rip it off but i couldn't move, my body was stiff. there was a big window to my left. i was still in nyc i could tell the sun was coming up, near me was an alarm clock, it read 7:26am. suddenly i heard a door being opened i lept up my body was mobile now. i drew the curtain, didn't realise i had an IV in my arm and ripped out the needle. a man came in. he was around 5'8......... eijis height. STOP! eijis gone.
he had a deep voice, mabye mid 50s..... hard to tell.
"mr callenreese?"
"mr callenreese?!"
"WHAT DO YOU WANT" i yelled
"mr callenreese, calm down you where in an accident..... i don't want to hurt you,"
"who are you" i asked
" my name is rufus....er rufus mclennan i'm a doctor"
"where am i?"
"y-your in the hospital"
he was nervous, was i scaring him? i slowly pulled the curtains back, i was right he was 5'8. he was scared.....shit. he held a clipboard it will have all my information on it name, age, criminal record? how much did he know?! i calmly retreated to my bed and asked him what happened
"you where found in the public library with a severe stab wound to your abdomen, it was close, it was a fatal wound! but you pulled through, you had a surgery and now you need to rest,"
"do you know what happened" he asked me in a curious tone
"i-i can't.."
i was confused, what happened to me!? ok i was stabbed and i went to the library ah yes the library! WAIT eijis letter! dr mclennan had is back turn away from me and was reading my notes carefully he told me i was doing well and needed to rest, he was walking away..
"HEY, where's my stuff!"
he turned fast he was on edge almost as he was waiting for me to ask him something? i'm overthinking it!.....again
"it's in a bag under your bed, we had to confiscate some items but your clothes are there,"
he left the room and shut the door, i was alone again.
i bent down and saw a big clear zip-lock with clothes in it, i grabbed it and chucked out the clothes. my grey trench coat was taking up most of the space, i lifted it up and threw it to the other side of my bed. my eye was drawn to my blood sodden black turtle neck ripped on the left side. the knife. my trousers, shoes and socks where all in a separate bag. i hung up my coat but something fell on the floor, paper? it had blood on it i bent down, my stitches ached and i winced in pain. it was a letter. eijis letter.
then it all came back to me
