One week and counting until a night of freedom from this hell that I seemed to be trapped inside.Â
You mean Halloween? Why do you call it freedom?
"What are you talking about?" Brigitte says, starting to swing her legs.
Kathleen wondered about the answer and smiled a little sarcastically, though she didn't mean to offend the blonde. "You seem to be a little distracted. Or just I would say you're the first one here that said hi and actually smiled. But the main question is what are you doing up there?"
"Oh hi.." Brigitte acts as though sheâs not 10 feet off the floor.
"Hi..." Kathleen looked a bit suspiciously at the blonde. "The hell are you doing?"
I only know bits and pieces of what happened. The original owners died hereâŠmurder/suicide - and I guess there blood sort of cursed the ground. Itâs all something that you never really think about happening, until you witness it first hand, I suppose.
Yeah... especially when you don't even know about it. I think not many people out there know the story. It's not like doctors tell us about the past. Maybe it's better but... Well, I'm glad you told me something about it. Then again... No one knows what will happen to this place after some years. Maybe they'll close the hospital and make it a nice property for sale. It's creepy...
They do indeed seem to be asleep, which is probably better than the being scared of the history of this place.Â
Yeah... You told me something about it before but could you tell more? Why it all happened?
There is nothing wrong with change or people growing as individuals. That is all I am saying.
Huh, okay... I agree... The thing is that the life goes so slowly here. People seem to be asleep... sort of.
All of those who walk through this place.Â
Why they should have changed anyway?
I swear this place never changes. Everyone is exactly the same.
Who do you mean saying everyone?
     â You looked a little suss. You know, tagging along behind me without saying a word. â
     â But Iâm always in the mood to talk in this place. Without that Iâd lose my mind. â
"I didn't look suss."
"Been trying to give you one question. I'm just wondering if there's any library or something."
"I canât wait until Halloween: slutty costumes and copious amounts of drugs and alcohol."
"Did you just say DRUGS?"
What was the point of making friends in a place like this? Her past attempts to scare people off, to somehow play martyr and save them had clearly failed since now people pulsed through this place like blood through a heart. The dearly departed teen was hardly the ray of sunshine her parents nearly named her after and she was plenty rough around the proverbial edges since her untimely death but she was honest and she never pretended to be something that she wasnât. It was easy to mistake her for just another patient, someone suffering from clinical depression or any other number of psychobabble bullshit the staff or even her father might blurt from their educated mouths but things were never that simple. Noting the tremble on the girlâs words a barely-there and quickly fading smile momentarily tugged at the corner of her lips. âYou look pissed. What happened?â It wasnât like this was the happiest place on fucking earth anyway.
"What?" Kathleen asked, a little distracted. "Is it that visible?" She shook her head and crossed arms. She had to admit Violet's question surprised her even more than greeting. Maybe she used it just to keep the conversation going somehow... Anyway, it's not like Kathleen's gonna sit down by her and confide all the secrets. First off, she wasn't into discussing all the problems of her life. Second, Violet wasn't into listening about it. It was why Kathleen considered her someone similar to her - they both weren't interested in someone else's lives. But then again, all what happened wasn't really any serious problem or a secret. "It's just that the staff here are total bitches. They're better off staying away from me."
"Woah, woah, hey, wait! Uh... okay... If you're really not in a mood to talk..."
A faint groan escaped from the sickly youthâs chest and he appeared paler than was to be expected from someone constantly stuck indoors. âChemo and caffeine is not a good mix, duly notedâŠâ The groaned was paired with the words to no one in particular. Nudging the coffee mug across the kitchen counter he was sitting at as if it were some great evil he wanted to distance himself from. Hell, what sort of teenager was he if he couldnât function on caffeine and sunshine alone?!
Kathleen sneaked into the kitchen to get some coffee or at least a cup of strong tea. The weakness and sleepiness were one of withdrawal symptoms she couldn't get rid of yet. She couldn't sleep all day though, as falling asleep for a longer time was quite impossible for her lately. The only thing she could do was trying to find any help in caffeine. Preparing coffeee, she suddenly heard someone's mumbling. Probably it wasn't directed to anyone in particular, but the girl turned around and looked at the boy sitting in the kitchen anyway. "Why not? If you're here and taking meds, you can't make it worse anyway."
Did someone around here say drugs? || Kathleen & Logan
A few weeks after getting shipped to this hellhole, Logan had to admit that he was beginning to feel better. And by better, it only meant that Loganâs head-splitting headaches were now just mind-numbing migraines that had nested inside his brain. Still, he had better control over his motor functions now, and though he was still pretty groggy, he could still meander through the house without the need of a cane or anything. Not that he had even used a cane in the first place; the damn things made him feel old and useless, which were two things that Logan Hale tried not to feel if he could help it. Besides, the doctors were encouraging him to get on his own two feet again because they were convinced that his being mobile was a sign of his getting better both physically and mentally.Â
Like fuck it was.Â
As Logan wandered through the house, he kept a frown on his face. He missed getting high, goddamn it. Most of his time outside had been spent snorting coke, drinking alcohol, doing meth, and often mixing drugs. He had been reckless even by a drug addictâs standards, which, he figured got him landed in the house in the first place.Â
Eventually, he got to one of the dayrooms. It was the first time he had been to this particular one, so he didnât really recognize any faces. Maybe he shouldâve brought Lauren along for support; he didnât feel particuarly social todayâŠÂ
Until he heard what was probably the most true sentence he had ever heard since he got to the hospital. Grinning, Logan walked up to the girl. âYou know, if you keep speaking like that, theyâll put more surveillance on you to make sure that youâre not going to smuggle drugs in.â Ms. Grumpy-Face did have a point; if other people could sneak in tobacco, why couldnât the sneak in some LSD or meth or something as well?Â
Kathleen looked up at the boy sceptically. "They won't. Until they have a proof I can do it, they won't treat it seriously." It was true. Nurses and doctors didn't care that much about her. No one escorted her from room to room. Probably, they considered her "safe" patient, means a calm one who won't kill herself or the others. Her only problems were drugs and depression and these weren't the worst things that could happen to a patient. This lack of interest didn't bother Kathleen, obviously. It even made her think they'll release her after two months or something.
His words were a little irritating - especially for someone actually pissed off. She came here to get some serious answer, not an obvious statement. However, this guy was the first and only one to start a conversation, while others ignored her. Plus, he seemed to be okay, unlike the other people she met here. He didn't act someone else - at least that was the first impression.
"Okay. Let's make it clear." She crossed her arms and looked him in the eyes. "You know something about drugs, you're into drugs but you're too pussy to try to get them or you're just one of those good boys that repeat drugs are bad?"
"They claim theyâre ghosts?â Maxine replied, almost with a scoff. "Well thatâs stupid. No wonder theyâre in here. Iâd assume theyâre saying that just to bullshit you, but part of me actually thinks they believe it themselves.â She pursed her lips for a moment, slightly uncertain as to how to feel about patients who believed they were real ghosts. Of course there were probably a lot worse in the house. She had gotten a clean glimpse of that in just the last few days alone. âSometimes I wonder where they died. I mean, could you imagine if it was in the room you sleep in?â
"Yeah, you're right. There must be something really wrong with them. Or, it's just something like their local slang." Kathleen replied in a way she considered the most rational. She kept in secret though that part of her believed there are ghosts in the house. It wasn't logical, but maybe it's because of her sensitive attitude. The thought of possible presence of spirits was making her rather excited than scared. Maxine wasn't probably the one who could understand that way of thinking, so she changed the subject and answered the next question. "God, that's scary. I guess they rather died in the living room, means downstairs or in the bedroom. The thing is you can't say where actually their bedroom was placed back then."
"ââGhosts? That doesnât sound very likely.â Though admittedly, it sounded more like she was trying to convince herself rather than state the facts. After all, ghosts didnât exist, right? Of course not. âItâs probably just the house. I mean, a body count I can believe, but wandering spirits of the dead?â She shook her head with a slight purse of her lips. âAnyway, hasnât this place been around since like the early nineteen-hundreds? Former patients have probably tried taking their lives, and Iâm sure there was plenty of other people. Residents and owners alike.â Her gaze returned to Kathleen just as she realized her digression. âBut all things aside, this place is justâcreepy.â
"No, not very likely. But the subject comes back around somethimes. I met some people stating they are or behaving like dead. And at the same time they seem to be rather normal. Or just half of the patients decided to start a sect and pretend they're dead." Kathleen was rather a realist, but she couldn't rid of the thought there's something wrong indeed, something beyond some dumb masquarade, but it was tough to explain. Maxine was a realist too, so guessing about ghosts existence wouldn't get them anywhere. "Yeah, it's pretty old... Like you said, early nineteen-hundreds. I don't know much about it yet, but some weird stuff happened here... It's pretty odd to think we're living in the place where someone died. It is creepy."
