🎧🎶 "Creep - Radiohead"
After what happened with Aby, a specific team was put together in Jackson to look for her and take revenge for what they did to Joel... and although it was a miracle to get him out of that situation alive, things got difficult, since Due to the strong blows and the shot, Joel ended up in a wheelchair...
For everyone it was a hard blow, but obviously for him it was the worst, because that independence, that autonomy was no longer there. Joel was clearly frustrated and his defense mechanism was to keep you away from him, not because he didn't love you, it was because he didn't want to be a burden to you, you were young, beautiful, agile, strong...and he didn't want to tie you down to a " bitter and imbecile paralyzed old man" as he called himself.
Of course you weren't going to leave him to his fate, you wouldn't abandon him, no matter how stubborn he was and no matter how many crude and hurtful words he had, he did it for your good... or that's what he thought. This caused strong arguments between you, because your body no longer functioned the same and it was difficult to adapt to a life like that. Although you tried to be patient with him, Joel knew how to get on your nerves or simply lose control...
Despite everything, deeply inside him, he was so grateful for you not leaving him, he was having a hard time admitting it and sometimes he regret how hurtful he is to you. He tries his best.
