Man On The Couch

Devon thought she was hallucinating when she saw Jacob sitting on the couch, taking off his boots. He greeted her like nothing ever happened like he wasn’t missing for 4 days. She could tell by his appearance that he has been through hell. Jacob told her everything that happened, and also confessed that he is still cold and in a lot of pain. Devon immediately rushed him to the hospital. 

Am I Fired?

Once Jacob was admitted and taken care of, Devon called the officials and told them to call off the search parties now, Jacob had made it home. On hearing the good news, Jacob’s boss came to see him at the hospital. Jacob asked him if he still had a job, and his boss confirmed that he does have his job. 

Man Of Principles

When Jacob’s boss came to know he was dehydrated and starving for 4 days he asked him why did he not take the packet of potato chips from the truck for his journey. Jacob said, “It was worth money. I didn’t wanna damage the property.” His boss was moved by Jacob’s reply. From his survival story to the reason he remained hungry all this while, his boss was beyond impressed and knew he did the right thing by hiring this man.

The Abandoned Truck

Once Jacob was feeling slightly better, the authorities interrogated him about the location of his abandoned truck so they could fetch it back. Jacob gave the authorities a rough idea of where he left the truck. After quite an extensive search, they managed to find the truck 21 miles away from the last GPS location and all the cargo was in perfect condition.

Grateful For You

Once everyone had left, Jacob and Devon finally got a moment to themselves. She told him how scared she was for the past 4 days. Jacob joked about how she is not getting rid of him so easily. He believed he had learned a lot from this experience. He had a tattoo that said, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Jacob believes it defines his life now.

Back Home

After being treated at the hospital, Jacob was allowed to rest and recover back at his home. Jacob had never appreciated the warmth of his bed more. He was lucky and remarkably strong for surviving the hell he had been through. Plus he was a man of honor for keeping his ground and not giving up.
