That day I was working late at Peterson's Hospital, that night I was in-charge for the ICU section. I went to check patients from ICU. everything was fine, untill I check the patient from Room No. 104.
He was acting bit strange today, usually he dont use to get up, but that day he was sitting at the coner of the bed and continuesly staring at the window. I help him lay down and then I check his pulse rate. he was all good when suddenly he started screaming and muttering something in Spanish (ella me matará) . he was getting out of control. I couldn't understand what he's saying. I had to inject him Anastasia. few seconds later he fainted.
when I walked out from I.C.U. one of my Co-workers look terrified, I asked her if she's ok. She said "(ella me matará) means (She'll kill me) in English. Mr Josh is British, how does he speaks in Spanish". I calmed her and told her to ignore. he's sick. he must have learned it from somewhere.
few days later On Monday after my shift. While leaving when I entered elevator and started looking for car keys in my bag. somebody entered elevator. I looked up and shocked.
"Mr. Josh, what are you doing in this elevator you should take rest", I said. He didn't replied anything, he doesn't even looked at me, no expression on his face. I asked him, "Mr.Josh, how do you speak Spanish", he stare at me with blood shot eyes. I was feeling bit scared and freaked out at that moment.
He kept staring at me, he was standing so close to me. when lift stopped at ground floor, door slide opens he walked out straight and then he turned left towards mortuary. I called him Loudly, "Mr Josh". he didn't replied anything and walked away.
I walked straight to the Reception.
I said, "hey, Hillary, why is the patient from room 104 up and walking around?'.
"what do you mean?", she asked.
"that Patients, my Mr.Josh", I said.
"what do you mean, Walking around?", she asked with confused face.
I snapped, "I just rode down in the elevator with him. he should be in the bed, on the monitor".
what she said shaked my body from top to bottom. "Linda, that patient died yesterday morning, He jumped from His room window".
"What", I snapped and ran towards mortuary. Hillary followed me. she calmed me down and removed clothe from dead body. Seriously I was shaking. I couldn't believe my eyes, few seconds ago I met him in the elevator and now he's dead right in front of my eye's.....
