Abandonment

Jamaal left behind a letter, an oddly anachronistic way to dump Elizabeth. He expressed regrets about leaving school early. Regrets about growing more distant from Elizabeth. Regrets for not stepping up for Jamaal Junior. But he'd fallen in love with a porn star from New York, and they were going to Los Angeles to become porn stars. But he loved her, yadda yadda, always, Jamaal.

It was the sin of immaturity, the sin of flying too high in one's youth, and the consequences fell to Elizabeth to resolve. Her first stop would be Adonis's house.
