After a few hours, Max goes up to VIncent parent's room
They always left the TV on for Max, as they think that Max will feel less lonely with it
Max doesnt know why that thing is saying things, but he likes to sleep while earing it
"Today on recent news, a family crashed on the highway, its seems that a drunk truck driver collidede with them from the front while deviating from the road. We just got live intel of the accident, Joana i left them with you"
"Thanks Carlos, im at the accident place and its seems that the truck driver has been knocked unconsious while we doesnt know if the people of the are are alive, i will try to get more info for you"

"Its seems that the name of the child is VIncent, thats the only intel we have for now"
Max, listening to the TV, found a familiar name, so he lifted his head to gaze aroudn
'Vincent? i guess he is still not home'
Max, still waiting for them his family, continues to sleep

The next day
Max is laying on his little bed, surrounded by plushies gifted by his family, waiting.
'They will come back, i know, they always come back'
Max keeps waiting for his family, the people who he deeply loves

A few hours later, Max went near the TV again, not for the sound of the TV, but because he feels like he is still with his family here
"On hot news, it seems that the child who was saved from the car crash yesterday has died in the hospital, i hope that the police can catch the drunk driver and take him to the justice"
Max, not knowing what they are talking about, tries to sleep, trying to feel the smell of his family, this calm him
...
The next morning
Max wakes up, searching for the familiar warm only to find the bed empty
He sadly goes to the first floor and eat whats left from yesterday on his dog bowl
Max goes to his familiar bed again to wait, he lays and gaze outside, waiting for that familiar figure to enter his vision
...
Next day
Max is now getting hungry, and that makes him more sad
'did i do something bad? why are they not coming back?' Thats the only thing he can think
Max, still waiting, plays a little with his plushies, as they makes him feel the love of his family
After a while, Max is exhausted after not eating for an entire day
He drinks some water and goes to sleep again, this time on VIncent's bed, maybe waiting for him to be there while waking up
