She might not think she needs a hero… but piecing her back together might be my biggest save yet.
I've seen it all working on the squad truck. Sometimes death is inevitable and I've learned to accept I can't always be the hero. But something about the Signal 41 call I worked, leaves me feeling like I failed. When I watch the victim's mother crumble to pieces in front of me, something inside me breaks.
I shouldn't want her the way I do. But seeing what she's going through, I can't walk away. She might not think she's ready for me, but I'm not going anywhere. If there is anything being a firefighter has taught me, it's not to quit. Life might have kicked Carson down, but I'll prove love can heal her wounds and show her life can go one after loss.
