You wake up and look around your hospital room. It's been months since you've seen anything else. A strange man is standing over you. He is dressed in all white and as he notices you are awake, he speaks.
"Sir, I'm here to give you a refund."
You stare at him a moment then smile blackly.
"Buddy, you have a really bad sense of timing. What do I need a refund for? I'll be dead in a week."
"Well Sir, that's exactly why you need a refund. We gave you a defective life the first time around. You never really had a shot."
"Wait. "Defective life"? Who the hell are you? What the hell do you mean by refund?"
"Sir, I don't have much time. Quickly pick an option."
You sit up and scowl at the man. "Damn right you don't. Either explain yourself now or I'll call the nurse."
The man in white doesn't seem perturbed by your threat. "I don't have time for idle threats." His voice is a shade more annoyed and...is that fear you can hear? "Choose now."
