The place was empty and bare, without furnishings or any trappings of comfort. Anthony had emptied most of his savings into purchasing this place to help people, but there was no interest - another symbol of his life's failure. Shades were drawn, plunging the room into shadows, with slivers of light filtering through, providing enough illumination in the room to make out Anthony's silhouette. Slouched in the corner, he felt numb. He couldn't even bring himself to kill himself. He promised Padma he wouldn't, and he knew Michael was coming over, but he still held the same pistol he used in his attempt to assassinate Diggory, limply in his hand.
He could still do it. He could stick the barrel of the gun into his mouth and pull the trigger. Before anybody came. But Padma's written words, begging him not to do it was still fresh in his memory.
But so were Alicia's reply, which practically encouraged him to do so.
