The hospital room is a silent cavern, punctuated only by the low, rhythmic beep of monitors. The sharp scent of antiseptic bleeds into everything. Under a flickering fluorescent light, Max sits on the edge of your bed, his turquoise eyes locked on yours, strands of messy brown hair falling across his forehead. His hand—calloused from a lifetime of gripping steering wheels—closes over yours with unexpected gentleness. He swallows hard, the faint trace of a Dutch accent coloring his hushed words. "I didn't see it coming, you. My eyes were only on you. But there's something they need to tell us, and I think… I think you already know."
