Mama's boy; that's what Paul's girlfriend calls him every time he runs when his mother calls. His alcoholic father calls him that too, every time Paul takes his mother's side and tries to protect her from his abuse.
They act like Paul being close to his mother is a bad thing. That it makes him look less of a man. Imagine if anyone, especially his father knew exactly how much of a mama's boy Paul really was?
For the past three years Paul's father has insisted his wife is cheating on him, but can't prove it. Fact is he's right; his wife is cheating on him, with his son.
Paul's father has been mean to his mother for years so whenever he's on the road, Paul treats her the way she deserves and loves her in every way. Paul truly is Mama's boy.
