Is there a chance you could’ve overwatered him when you knew you wouldn’t be home?  
Usually it’s overwatering unless the a/c was turned off or barely on.

I don’t live alone so it could have been the ac wasn’t on or overwatering, either could have happened 😅 thank you!

Sorry it happened. But I bet he’ll bounce back

If that is a croton they don’t like cold drafts and they love sun. I had one that got droopy because I had it inside and didn’t get too much sun. I put it outside where it is receiving full sun and he perked right and even has new leafs. The sun is what gives them their bright colors.
