Ward No.1D [zouis]

What's this story about?
╰┈➤ [Zayn centered + ZOUIS ship]
Zayn Malik was a mess. Everyone thought he was psycho, crazy, insane. His parents decided they couldn't take it anymore, sending him off to a mental ward, no further questions asked. Among other struggling souls, including an empathetic counselor and three patients grappling with their own battles. But whilst he was in the ward, he discovered something. The ward wasn't what it seemed, it was corrupted and dangerous. He knew he needed to get out.

And to make matters worse, he did the stupidest thing any mentally ill person can do. He fell in love.
