Episode 11

I sit on my bed thinking about the day. I stare blindly in the air. The painting and painting. The painting of Mr. Carter and the painting I did. I feel something is going on I don't know what. Why did I paint like that today? with that speed? I have the speed but this time it was too fast. And what about the painting.

I close my eyes and sleep.

"You don't look fine. You want to see doctor?"

"I am not sure" , sneezes again.

"Here, drink some water", I offer him water bottle.

"Thanks ", he sips water but before he could engulf he sneezes out all the water. He coughs badly. His face...
