Guilt
The memories of their past came flooding back to them as they sat opposite one another. They recalled the happy moments, the difficult times, and the breakup that eventually occurred. As Maureen came to the realization that Lionel had carried his own loads of remorse and regret, her heart began to gradually soften. She experienced a slight sense of remorse for the fact that she had failed to inform him about the disappearance of his son all those different years ago.
A Father’s Confession
The narrative was told from Lionel’s point of view. Despite the fact that they had only sometimes communicated with one another, he admitted that he had reconnected with Jermaine a few years after he had left. It was revealed that he had relocated to Brooklyn in the hopes of starting a fresh life and escaping the mistakes he had made in the past. His voice was shaking as he related the story of the last time he saw Jermaine, which was a chance encounter that took place in a nearby park.
