Carter spent a week off, bumming around the house. The day of Kems funeral remaining a blur for him. He didn't remember anything, none of the details. None of the people there.
He was lost.
When he was in his apartment, he isolated himself. Didn't go out, didn't call anyone....Didn't do.....anything.
Kem was his life. Now? He had no one. No one to care for, only his job in County General. The tears wouldn't stop from his eyes, dripping down to his chin like waterfalls. He sniffed and sniffed. But, to no avail.
He just....
Couldn't....Stop crying...
The pain was like the tears, it couldn't stop. First his son, Joshua. Now Kem. They were gone and there was nothing he could do to bring them or the time he had with them back.
He isolated himself, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Remaining in bed and grieving. Grieving over his family.
All he remembers was minimal details..of the event..
"I'm sorry John..."
"I'm....sorry..."
