No Way Back

Peter was so agitated that he coughed violently.

In the past, Peter would have never said a word about feeling guilty toward

Jane.

“Peter, you… I saw you lying unconscious. I heard that you had met with Jane earlier and so I was worried that you…”

Jack felt very humiliated to be called out like that by his son.
