Flint
this is good. She’s still near SI, and Dean isn’t even home half the time.
Ash
he better be a gentleman and be better than Nyle.
Skyye
Dad is better than Nyle. Aunt Kenni is excited.
Ash
that’s what worries me.
Ash
What if he lets her down?
Flint
he won’t.
Skyye
he won’t.
Ash
I just want her to be happy.
Skyye
we all do. Especially my dad.

Me
I’m packed.
