Michael has always had a rough life, growing up with a negligent single father and picking up an addiction to drugs by the age of 15. Things have finally been looking up for Michael lately after he met the love of his life Jocelyn, who helped him to overcome his addiction. That is, until Michael learns that Jocelyn has been sleeping with his best friend KJ in secret. Michael abandons all hope and turns back to the one thing that always seemed to help, drugs. After an insane drug fueled bender, Michael finds himself overdosing in a 7-Eleven bathroom where he sits eagerly waiting for it all to end as he reflects on his entire life. As a boy, Michael’s father resented him because his mother died in childbirth. Michael’s father blamed him for her death, and soon enough, Michael began to blame himself too. The young Michael quickly turned to drugs as a coping mechanism, which led him down a long path of suffering. Cut back to the present; Michael, now sprawled across the bathroom floor, clutching his one month sobriety token in his hand, finally comes to terms with his mother’s death and admits that it was never his fault. Michael cracks a tearful smile as he closes his eyes one last time as he drifts off.
