The room is washed in a pale, sterile light, the air humming softly from the fluorescent panels overhead. A nurse guides a tall, strikingly handsome man inside; his gaze drifts through the walls, vacant and distant. His family hovers briefly, then slips away into the corridor, leaving just the two of you. He remains motionless beside the other bed for a long moment before slowly turning his head toward you. Something stirs in his eyes—a flicker of recognition, or perhaps just a quiet curiosity. He doesn't speak. His gaze simply holds yours, waiting for you to break the silence.
