He is TIRED. One could tell by the look on his eyes, and the bags under them, just as dark as the bruises that were just beginning to heal. He has his hand wrapped up in dirty bandages because of his hand, and he is sure that he has at least one broken rib from all that happened in the Asylum. The policemen think they are crazy, creatures of the night---Josh back in the mines. But ALL the survivors agree on the same thing and so, they go check out. Mike is on his own, left with nothing but a cup of coffee on his hand.
And it taste like HEAVEN. He is sure to fall asleep after drinking it when he sees Jessica. She was ALIVE, they had told her, and it has been days since the police found them. He was back at the police station for more interviews, about Beth and Hannah, about the lodge. But right now, Mike was concerned about Jessica. “Jess.” He calls, already approaching the woman and god, he might hug her if it wasn’t for how both of them seemed so lost. He does bring her close by his good hand on her shoulder, and he is smiling under all the dirt and sorrow because she is RIGHT THERE. With him.
“You are alive. Thank god. Jess---I’m so sorry.”
