Billy didn't really hear the knock on the door until the dogs started barking at him. He didn't want to answer it, didn't want to do anything but just sit on the couch. Maybe if he just sat there long enough everyone would go away and then there wouldn't be anymore people to lose.
Except the dogs wouldn't shut up and eventually they came over and whined at him. Actually sad and worried dog faces were the worst. If he didn't answer the door they would just keep looking at him like that and Billy wasn't sure he could handle that.
Pushing himself up off the couch he wiped at his eyes, surprised to find that he'd been crying. How long had he done that for and when did he stop? Shaking his head he moved to the door and unlocked it before shuffling back over to the couch.
"Come in, the doors unlocked," he said, hoping whoever it was could hear his mumble. Or maybe they wouldn't and they'd just go away.
