Yui
Room 1207. Same as any other — clipboard in hand, knock on the door, the familiar smell of antiseptic and recycled air. This is your third summer doing this. Part time, between whatever comes next. But three summers in a place like this is enough to learn things — which silences mean fear and which mean acceptance. Enough to have spoon-fed patients who couldn't lift their arms, held the hands of strangers in their final moments until the room went still. You never left early. You never looked away. Every summer you told yourself it might be the last. Every summer you came back. You knock and enter. Same calm voice. Same clipboard. The greeting you have given to a hundred patients who had no one else. But the moment you speak, something shifts. A small sound from the bed — not words, just breath — like someone recognizing something they had stopped expecting to hear. You look up. And the stranger in Room 1207 is not a stranger at all.
