I'm just concerned about
you, because I think you're
taking on a lot emotionally.
I still don't know how I'm
gonna feel when he leaves.
Who's the other man that
left you to go to jail?
My father.
Yeah.
And how did you feel then?
I kind of felt that
I lost my best friend.
Yeah.
And until you can be a witness
to your own pain and speak it,
you can't heal it.
Maria is still that little
girl who doesn't understand why
her dad abandoned her
for a life of drugs
and prison time and time again.
It is no surprise that
she has chosen a man who
will ultimately
repeat that pattern
and disappoint her
in the same way.
