    Minerva had brought a change of clothes for Eric, along with a razor, as they had not allowed him to shave whilst being "helped" at the institution.

    He should be grateful but gratitude was not what he felt at that moment.

    Instead, Eric - his eyes darting back and forth, had enough sense to realize that it was better to wait until he was outside the institution, before he decided what to do next.

    He knew he had to stop using meth by now but he thought maybe it was too late.

    But it was all too late; too late to get clean and too late to come clean about the freezer in mother’s basement, the contents of which gave him a chill thrill as he paced through the familiar white corridors.

    Eric thought,"I knew, when I stuffed them in it, that it was a mistake but not having the time to come up with better idea it seemed the best choice, given the circumstances".

Of course due to being in an institution he was unable to pay his electricity bill, he could not believe what he saw when he entered the basement.

    It was a 46-year-old Eric who was finally released from the asylum, all his worldly possessions contained in a small yellow suitcase. Meeting him at the gate his sister Minerva, whisked him off. - Minerva had brought a change of clothes for Eric, along with a razor, as they had not allowed him to shave whilst being "helped" at the institution.

The horrifying contents of the freezer had completely defrosted, the air ripe with the smell of melted popsicles and premature death.

    Eric always hated defrosting the freezer and finding people he didn't even recognize.

She was wearing the MacTavish tartan and he racked his brain to put a name to her because at one point, before his "incarceration" he'd dated a MacTavish lass but he remembered her as having auburn hair not blond.
