The next morning, Paul is discharged. I drive him to our neighborhood, and pull into my driveway.

"Uh, Essie—"

"I want you to stay with me for a bit, Paul. We're going to walk over to your house to get your clothes and such, but I don't trust you home alone. Do you understand?"

He seems surprised by my forwardness. "Um...a-alright."

"Good."

We walk over to his house and I direct him upstairs so we can pack some of his clothing. I turn my back on him for one moment to grab a suitcase and when I turn back—he's gone.

"Paul?!" I race downstairs and find him in the kitchen...drinking a bottle of alcohol.

"Paul, no!" I grab the bottle from him. He looks at me with wide eyes, shock written all over his face.

"I can't have a drink?"

I sigh.

It's going to be a long two weeks.
