Hale held the steering wheels, feeling the pain in his chest. He placed a hand on it and cried out in pain, the tightness around his chest making it difficult to breathe. He stopped driving to park by the roadside when he received another message from his family through Mordecai. Unfortunately, he had blocked every member of his family including his dad from messaging him days before. A mistake he made because his mom started to communicate through his friends and that was how they all found out what was going on.

He tried keeping it in, but it was something his heart couldn't take anymore.

It's getting worse, and all he could do was to remain here and feed his helplessness to the situation. There was hope before he flew down here, but it got crushed via the letter, and he was once again drowning in this terrible pain.

He could leave and return…but the thought of having to deal or even look at his family was something he couldn't do.
