Day 53: Intercom, Dawn
Although the day was sunny and warm, there seemed to be a strange tension within the walls of Landel's Institute. The nurses seemed a little more on-edge than usual, and they were already bustling to-and-fro in the hallways before the Head Doctor even made his announcement. It seemed that they'd all been roused early today by Nurse Lydia – but for what reason? The Head Doctor had been making calls all morning, it seemed, regarding a situation that he himself had not anticipated.
Finally, the intercom jingle sounded.
"Hello, everyone!" his voice finally said through the intercom. Although trying very hard for a cheery tone, it was clear he was under some kind of great stress. "Today, we'll be having waffles – the usual toppings are available: syrup, butter, whipped cream, powdered sugar, cinnamon, jam, and fresh fruits. We also have cereal and assorted drinks, along with coff– wait..." He murmured: "No, no, not coffee, he'll..."
After a moment of contemplation, he continued: "Ah! Anyway, I believe that's all for now. Just... go on with everything and stay behaved! Yes!"
The intercom clicked on without his usual farewell.
