Patrick left his mother's room and went straight upstairs to his room. He needed to let out some of the wrath that was boiling within him by having a conversation, and that was by having a conversation partner. He longs for Phina's presence. However, he must find out if he is prepared to share this aspect of his life with her.
Only a select handful are aware of that aspect of him. For a long while, he had to keep it to himself. During interviews, he frequently sidestepped queries about his father or gave them something to ponder. He has never acknowledged having a father or knowing who he is. At times, they attempted to extract remarks from him by associating him with the renowned former Judge Aaron MacDowell.
