Joker's Aftermath and Transition

Chapter #21: Weekend (4)

--- Wellston Boys Dormitories, John's Room ---

John's POV

- "Mons-"

- "You're not a monster."

Those are the first things I remember after waking up by the alarm.

All the time the same thing.

I'm getting tired of it.

I don't know if I'm a monster or not...

And before, I was scared of finding out, but now...

I just simply don't care about it.

Woah.

I can't believe I now felt indifferent to that.

So it's more than okay for me.

But still, I can't get that word out of my head.

I wonder what else do I have to make in order to stop it?

I don't know.

And after thinking a bit about that, I look at the clock's direction, and I notice that is 7 AM now.

I don't feel tired, and I can't get back to sleep again, so I get up.

Then, I get dressed for my morning routine.

- "You up?" I said to Doe.

Then, he comes out and gets closer to where I am, waving his tail.

After that, I started to pat his head and I stayed with him for a little while.

He's such a good boy.

I guess he's probably hungry, so I'll serve him some food now.

Then, I proceed to make a couple of sandwiches for me, with some orange juice I recently bought.

--- 20 Minutes Later ---

After I'm done eating my breakfast, and Doe is too, and it appears that he really liked his food, that's good.

I... feel like I need to do something now.

But I don't feel like jogging today.

So instead, I'm going to work on my arms, abs, and also my back.

In the meantime, as I was doing my exercises...

I noticed that this whole room has a lot of dust, probably for the other rooms too.

So I guess it's time to clean.

I think there were some cleaning products and a broom somewhere in this place...

But I'll search for them later.

--- 2 Hours Later ---

After finishing my exercises and cleaning, I went to take a shower.

Well... dad is going to be fine, so this time I'll go after lunch.

In the meantime, I thought about what I could bring to not be so bored inside the hospital, there's not much to do there.

I guess I can take a card game to play poker or something else.

Then, after the shower, I checked my phone.

There was a message from Remi.

"John, are you free today? I want to talk about something."

Is what her message said.

She wants to meet up.

I wonder why.
