So that’s where Jay was, sitting in his bare room, thinking, trying to remember. Something happened during that last test, something was different, everything was different. The room, how many doctors there were, the Other. . .

There was another patient.

That changed a lot.

There was never another patient, he was the only one in the wing. Separated from the rest, alone. But now there was someone else, the Other. Where were they, maybe even the room across the hall? What did they look like?

They were loud, they seemed shorter than him, they wore red.

Red.

Red was a before color, before with his family. His brothers. He could almost see their faces, remember their smiles, their voices- but then the snap of the door broke his train of thought, as the blue masked nurse walked in.

“How are we doing today?” They said keeping their distance, but their friendly attitude never broke. They were always cautious after a test, Blue mask learned that bugging him too much meant a big spark.

“How about we get you your meds and something to eat.” They smiled through the mask, continuing to talk and jabber, making it difficult for him to concentrate and think. But he couldn’t snap now, that meant more drugs, he wouldn’t remember the Other. So he stayed quiet and tried ignoring them. Think about the Other, the red Other, the red Other from before. Don’t forget them, look for them, maybe they could get out together?

“Jay? Jay! I need you to focus, ok?” Blue mask broke Jay’s train of thought once again, irritation flared but he kept the spark in control, not like he needed to for long. The nurse handed him his pills, and once he swallowed, checked to make sure he took the black one. He got away with not taking it once, it was the closest he got to escape. But now there were double checks and searches. Made sure he didn’t have a stash somewhere.
