I am at a hospital, supposed to see JC, but I am extremely nervous. I’m holding a tube I’m meant to connect to him for oxygen, yet no one has explained how to do it or for how long and I don’t feel I can trust him to tell me.
I wait outside his room with the tube in my hand when Sean suddenly walks out. We greet each other and he leaves. I remember that Sean once had a tube during his covid issue and think he could have told me what to do.
I go into JC’s room. He is lying down and immediately asks me to leave him alone. I say, “Ok I’ll sleep in the next bed” but he doesn’t want me there either. He is sort of pushing me out of the room.
Outside, I see a woman maybe a nurse or a doctor, she asked me to do something for someone else, someone I know who is also at the hospital but can’t remember who.
The overall feeling is clear though, I showed up to help, yet it felt like no one wanted me there.
I sit in the waiting room to catch up on the news because that’s the only thing that to do there.
The news appears on a long vertical screen scrolling downward from the ceiling, and you have to put your finger on the news you want to read to stop it. I don’t find anything worth knowing, I think maybe watch the news about the current wars. But I keep missing it and end up stopping on other things, I am not interested.
More frustrating things happen, the details escape me.
Finally, I decide to leave the hospital. As I walk out, I wonder why I came in the first place.
