sure, kiddo.

Ash

So did Dean beat up stepdad?

Skyye

no thankfully, but I don’t think he likes my dad.

Flint

too bad it doesn’t matter.

Flint

he’s your dad.

Ash

I don’t get it. Dean’s cool as hell.

Skyye

exactly, and when stepdad came in, he called my mom and told her not to be going crazy since Aunt Kenni is here.

Ash

hey, tell him to leave them alone. Mom needs Missy and Sadie.

Flint

Yeah, what he said!

Ash

for real, help us, Sky. Mom has been through hell.

Skyye

I know, don’t worry. I’ll watch out for her.

Flint

She deserves to be happy, and I know coming home will do that for her.

Skyye

I hear you, don’t worry.

Flint

but we will.
