Michael came home after a long day at his part-time job to find his mother asleep on the floor. When he had left earlier, she had been entertaining someone, so he hadn't even gotten the chance to check in on her.
He thought that she was just drugged out and fell asleep like she normally would when it happened, but this time when he walked towards her to wake her up so that she could go to sleep in her room, he felt something was off.
"Mom," he called, but received no response. He then knelt on the floor and tried to shake her awake, but there was still no response. When he turned her over, he became frozen with shock.
"Mom," he whispered as he dragged her body on his lap and checked to see if she was breathing, but he was disappointed.
