Doctor Alex was looking directly into my eyes. His coat has dots of blood. His back is facing me, but he tilts his head. Staring at me. I wanted to scream or cry but I couldn't move. His right hand was injured but he was holding a knife. And what is this? There's something else he's holding! 


An Apple? But I noticed his eyes. His stare is telling me that this is my last day alive. I quickly moved the blanket and sat up.




" Look, I wouldn't say a word about what I saw today. I will keep everything to myself. I can move on from this. Just please don't kill me. I was looking for Cecelia and I noticed you. You are the one who left the door open!! I didn't mean to look at her- "


Suddenly, Doctor Alex turns around and now I can see his clothes are full of blood. He slices the apple in half.



" Do you think I am going to murder you? Why would I do that? Oh, and about my clothes. I was bruising that woman you saw earlier. "



His being very open about all of this means that I was right. He is going to do something. Doctor Alex removed the bandage on his right hand and his sleeves. His hand and arm have been... Stabbed! I'm confused.



" I was about to give her something to cool down since she was going into a mental breakdown, then, she had a sharp knife and started swaying around. I tried to stop her by my right hand but she kept resisting. She made so much trouble for the nurses. I knew this was going to happen again. I fell to the ground. She was about to stab me. But I was quick and defined myself. She almost killed me and I had no other choice but to ... Anyway, I heard a noise and that's when I left the room. I didn't want any patients to see me covered with blood. That's when you showed up. I should have explained to you when I saw you but I need it to get my thoughts together. I apologize for what happened today. You shouldn't have seen this. "




I'm not buying anything of this. The look on his face when I saw him earlier was someone ready to kill me at any given moment. This woman means nothing to me anyway. She is a threatening person to be around with. And for Doctor Alex, he had to do it. But, something is off. 





" She told me today ' You are dead ' "



" Hahahah this is crazy! Now she is the one dead, not you! "



He is laughing. About a woman he killed. He is a weirdo.




" Doc I think I can't stay here. It's nerve-wracking and I don't think I am getting better. "



" Just for one week. And you're free to go. It must have been a hard day for you. We haven't sat down and talked for almost 2 weeks, right? Let's talk tomorrow after work. Again, I apologize for what happened. Good night. Robert, come take this box. "




A man in his sixties, short with baggy clothes, Who was standing in front of the door came in and took one of the boxes. Doctor Alex puts the knife above the small fridge and the apple inside. They left and closed the door. What just happened? Is that it? I want to believe him but a part of me doesn't. Did he say that he was burying her? Is there a cemetery in the hospital? And he is completely fine walking around with his clothes full of blood? You can see the blood on his white coat. I can't think anymore. At least he did bury me next to her. I got thirsty. I opened the fridge and found a bottle of water, half of the apple that Doctor Alex had left, and something I would never have guessed was right there. The jelly that I left for Cecelia. It's the same cup. I know because I taped the small plastic spoon on it. I was right. Something isn't right with this guy. I looked at the box and tried to open it but it was locked. What is this place? I lay down to sleep for at least one hour. I will try to get some sleep. I closed my eyes and all I could see was her face. That woman's eyes were looking at me. Before when I met her earlier in the hallway and after she got killed. Also, the look that Doctor Alex keeps giving me is unsettling. It's terrifying. It's completely different from when I first saw him. As much as I hate this place, I have to stay. He told me that I have a week. Also, I'm getting paid which is good especially since I have no 'experience' in this job. I wonder how he gets the jelly. I locked the door. But again he is the owner. Which means that he knows everything. Right?




At Doctor Alex's office. Doctor Alex gives Robert money.



" What are we gonna do for him, doc? " Robert asked. 


" Who? You mean Liam? "


" Yeah. "


" Nothing. "


" Didn't he see what happened? Also, he didn't believe the story that you have told. Why are we keeping him? "



Doctor Alex stared at him. Robert steps back.



" Don't tell me. He is crazy too? Really? "


" Well... "


" Wait, then, why is he the nurse? Does he take that medic-"


" I just needed someone to assist them. That's all. "



" Them? Oh! 'Them' ... But why him? "


" Why are you asking so many questions? Get back to work. Clean that room downstairs. I don't want to see a small drop of blood. "



" Ah sorry, sorry. I was wondering if he is going to take my job but like you said, he is quitting after a week. "



" Hmm, I don't know. He will stay longer. "



" What made you so sure that he would stay? Doctor Alex, I'm sure you saw the look on his face. There's no way he would even stay until today's midnight. Also, I think you shouldn't have seen him with that much blood. "




Doctor Alex pointed at the office's door. Telling Robert to leave. Robert got up and closed the door behind him. Doctor Alex looked at his hands. Then, I looked at his watch. He got up and took off his coat. And left his office. 




It was early in the morning. Liam was sleeping on his back. He felt pressure on his chest. He couldn't breathe. He was trying to open his eyes but he couldn't. He remembers what happened in the past. He thought he was blindfolded like what happened on that day. The thing started moving. Liam screamed. He suddenly sits up and throws that thing away. That thing is a cat. A big orange cat hissed at him. He got up and opened the door for her to leave. When the cat left he closed the door and sat on the ground. Trying to catch his breath.



" It's just a cat... It's just a cat... " Said Liam in his shaking voice. 



He tried to turn on the lamp but it didn't light up. He opened the door to get some sunlight to light up the room. Only to see Cecelia at the door. He remembers he locked the room yesterday. He wonder how she got out. And what is she doing here?
