“All I want is to relax and feel normal.”

Jacky wants to connect with you so much that she hurts herself.

Her doctor can’t help her anymore and her nurses keep changing.
She built this little fort.
It's her secret hiding place.
She brought you here because she needs you to participate in her own kind of ‘treatment’.
She thinks it can help both you and her.
