Summary
Alex, inexplicably, thinks of a young Henry. A Henry banging on his mother’s door, begging for a scrap of her attention. A Henry floundering in his own grief and his own loneliness, sinking into his mind because there’s nowhere else to go. A Henry thinking he’s never going to be good enough because if he was good enough the people who love him wouldn’t leave.
It makes Alex angry, and then it makes him sad. Alex thinks that maybe him and Henry aren’t that different. Maybe they’re both just trying to patch up wounds left by people meant to love them unconditionally. Maybe they’re both just young lost boys desperately seeking a do-over.
///
Or: Henry and Alex both have some needed conversations with their parents.
