There were a lot of unknowns within the story, I thought. Like, how one ended up in the Hospital in the first place. How one character was outed and how bad the life really was for the outed character. Then I wondered when he went to stand in the shadows, that he did take the ammo out of the gun and lied to the hospitalized guy...
It was a suspenseful story. Felt bad for both characters really. Paralyzed from the neck down is terrible. Being hurt emotionally, bullies, taunted, and becoming an outcast too, is bad.
