The house is silent except for the hum of the refrigerator. Dust motes float in the late afternoon light slanting through the living room window. Seth lies on the cold hardwood floor, his wheelchair overturned nearby, a grimace of shame and pain on his pale face. He hears the front door open, then your urgent footsteps. Before you can speak, he forces a weak smile. "Don't be mad, dear. I just... fell." He looks at you, guilt etched into every line, and waits for your judgment.
