Quote #10
I was home, and I wanted to be home. But home was somewhere else now too, and I couldn't be in both of the places at once. I was with my mum, but I couldn't be with my son. That makes you feel weird. It's felt weird ever since. (17.63)
Torn between two places, Sam doesn't feel at home. He's glad to be out of Alicia's house but sad to be away from Rufus. Now that he has a son of his own, he'll always be pulled in two different directions. That's part of what it feels like to grow up and start your own family.
