Water and fertilizer?  
Usually Walmart plants need both.

Yes, gave it both 😞

I would say just give it time. And see.

That soil doesn’t look ideal and I’m guessing the root and/or stems are rotted to the point of no return due to the improper watering at Walmart

It’s regular indoor potting mix.. \& I still have faith

The roots are fine
