PRETTY?

wait'' she yelled before rushing last by him to stand in front of the door. ''don't''

felix raised an eyebrow again, shifting his weight to one side of his body as he looked at her with slight amusment.

''what are you doing here?''

''don't call the nurses''

if this was in another setup, people would usually say don't call the police. but in the hospital's case, nurses were treated the same.

"that didn't answer my question" he shot back. "what are you doing here?"

''im...i...'' the girl looked away, her hands connected as they fumbled together nervously.

felix sighed as he walked to the still open window and slid it to close before turning back to her, ''i dont think you should be here.''

''i don't think you should be here either.''

"im a patient and patients are supposedto stay inside the hospital."

''exactly'' she smiled with her small confidence despite being intimidated by the boy. ''you just said it with your own mouth''

his eyebrows knitted together again, ''are you stupid-''

''you said patients are supposed to stay inside the hospital.'' she cut him off, ''but you're stuck inside this room.''

he exhaled loudly, ''what do you want?''

''lets go out''

he scoffed ''as if they would aloud us.''

''that's why it's going to be between is, felix'' her smile started to grow wider.

''i dont want to spend my last night with you''

''last night? who said anything about dying?''

''with the idea itself, it's like self-murder. so if you don't have anything else to say or do, the door is near you for a reason.''

she clapped her hands and let out a small giggle, ''come on it'll be fun!''

''it's going to be dangerous!''

''what's life without spme thrill?''

''yeah, but there's a possibility you won't get to live your life with that thrill.''

''please?'' she asked, stepping forward to decrease the spaces between each other.

''look, im just trying to safely.''

''live? that's what you call what you're doing while you trap yourself inside this room?'' azealah knitted her eyebrows, ''felix, this isn't living.''

''what bullshit are you on-''

''you're just existing'' she breathed out ''a person who's forcing himself out from all the things out there.''

''look-'' he tried to talk, but she beet him to it again.

''people talk about you like you're some kind of ghost eho died in this very hospital. outside this room, maybe you don't even exist! maybe you're one of those myths and rumors that fly around the place.'' she spat out, ''and here you are inside, convincing yourself that you're living your life.''

felix was taken aback. he wanted to be mad at her, scream and yell at her for talking to him like this, but he couldn't.

because everything she said was true.

he curled his hands into a fist, his knuckles starting to turn white with the force that he's giving. his teeth are still gritted and his jaw is shaking.

''where the f**k do you want to go then?''
