Ka-YA - “Stay and don’t go back.”

Everyone in Hilton’s life thinks he needs help. He’s confusing realities

“I left you a curse, not a blessing.”

“Maybe he was simply losing his mind. In some ways, Hilton decided, that would be a relief.”


Hilton’s family threatened, marriage on the rocks, he isn’t sleeping and when he is he has nightmares. He’s becoming more aggressive and paranoid

“Racism was out there, and Hilton figured it was better for his kids to grow up knowing it rather than fooling themselves into thinking everything was wonderful because they could drink from any water fountain or sit in classrooms next to little white kids.”

Boom, one chapter left to make me cry and she did it :’) kids see everything, no matter your struggles your perception, and their perception of you is vital

Homagah, basically nana died but had to find her way back to save you later at the beach, now you have to stay around to one day save your family hooomahgah

Again! Annoyed at how quick he is to act like Dede is irrational and whatever she felt is unimportant and malicious, but soo respectful to elderly women, it’s giving Nanas boy in the WORST way.

Immediately dismissive of his affect on Dede, it’s so hard to feel bad for him

He has officially lost his mf mind… I can feel for him being hurt by their fear, but what tf are they supposed to think when you’re smacking shit around and calling her out her name??? If you were going to hurt her you were definitely getting there… Kaya might’ve saved Dede frfr

He makes me so mad because he expects everyone to act their part, daughter, mother/wife, son, hell even therapist his ‘friend’ Raul, but he doesn’t have to return anything as long as he plays fun police/protector (even though he’s so sleep deprived who knows if he’s compromised that role) he doesn’t feel the need to communicate, or act as a husband or father, just waits for others to play their parts

She need to pistol wip that 🥷🏾 FOR 40 minutes.. STRAIGHT.

I haven’t been a husband to u, but u haven’t been a wife to me ☹️☹️☹️ and im angy and having nightmares :((( like stfuuuu Hilton is so contradictory, there is nuance in how he feels and I can appreciate it but he is such a typical nonsensical man in the face of adversity 😪

Charles ray is a very believable Florida hick villain, will say that much

“How many times do you think you can die? Do you think you can keep dying forever?”

Poor Hilton. It’s like his daughter grew up over night
