"Ah, single father," Lucy says carefully, quietly. "That has to be difficult especially for you now that you're...here."

No matter what people have told her about how she is still, somehow, back home, hasn't left, she can't help but think she's missing out on the opportunity to get her sister back or to spend more time with her mother. She's stuck in a city where she can do nothing for no one back home.

"I'm sure you miss her," Lucy remarks, tapping a finger against the table and smiling lightly. "That's one thing I really hate about this place, not being able to communicate with anyone back home. Not to even tell them you're alive."
