There is a Chase, in the bar, with a book that he is only pretending to read.

It's difficult to pay full attention to a book when one is keeping a wary eye and a half out for certain daughters and certain fathers-in-law-to-be that one has to make certain apologies to or risk certain...something.

If your name just happens to be Angela or Jack, you might want to just happen to stop by the booth.

And if your name isn't, you're certainly perfectly welcome to stop by anyway.

"It was just a big misunderstanding. Because she was in her room, and I hadn't seen either of you for a while, and I wanted to help but she pushed me away and...I got mad."

Angela never speaks up at home. And she feels awful for starting to do that here.

Angie sighs. "I said sorry a couple of days later. And I've been staying in her room ever since."

She chews on the inside of her mouth. "I've been thinking a lot about going home--but I can't see the door."

"I just...I have things to do out there. Though I'd love to stay. It's nice not to have to deal with school or anything else."

She smiles slightly. "I hope I can always come back here, though. I hope that I never have to leave permanently."

"I'd miss you too."

It was nice meeting her Dad and Mom as younger people. It's helped her understand them a little.

"But I'm not going anytime real soon, okay?" She laughs a little bit.

Angela laughs. "Make me stay in my room and no television?"

"You're a softy, Dad. I won't tell anyone, though."
She snuggles her cheek against his shoulder.
