When Amara asks her mother for advice she didn’t receive the response she hoped for. Amara’s mother gets upset and furious with her daughter on learning the news and warns her to never meet him. She, in fact, digs up an old incident to paint Amara’s father in aa poor light to drive home the point that he can’t be relied upon. Amara’s mother reveals that when she asked him to support her with raising Amara, he reportedly asked her to go on welfare to get help with raising Amara.
She also begins questioning Amara’s father’s motives to meet his daughter after so many years, when she is famous, instead of trying to reconnect with her earlier when he had several opportunities. Although Amara looked upset on hearing her mother’s harsh words about her father, she eventually decided to meet her father and hear his side of the story and express to him how his absence from her life affected her.
“I always ask myself: why didn’t he want me?”
