Saudade; a nostalgic feeling or longing for someone or something loved which has been lost, with the knowledge they or it may never return.
Tragedy, but not the kind you see on TV. Not a brutal car accident, not suicide and not a housefire. Tame tragedy, it should be called. Or . . . everyday tragedy.
That's the worst kind. Knowing that one simple error in a domestic environment leads to horrifying consequences. For example, slipping on a stairs and banging your head. That's how Dan's tragedy happened.
The horrifying consequences were, for Phil, not knowing if his best friend would ever wake up from a trauma-induced coma. Realising how much he needed Dan; how much he needed to let him know. . .
Maybe he's missing a lost love which never was.
