After dropping off Harper, I go home and expect to find Dad already in bed. But when I walk through the door, he’s asleep on the couch.

I’m still on edge from earlier tonight, but I can’t make myself walk past him.

I gently shake his shoulder. “Dad?”

His eyes blink open and he sits up, taking me in. “Kale?” He glances at the clock. “You’re back.”

I just look at him. “I said I would be, didn’t I?”

He glances away quickly and gets up. “I meant early,” he says.

“Oh, well, it didn’t go as long as I thought it would.”

He looks over me, still trying to wake up. “You should get to bed then. I don’t want to be woken up by you banging around somewhere.”

But before I turn to go, I ask, “Is everything all right?”

“Yeah … yeah, everything’s fine. Go to bed.”

Dad heads for the stairs and I stand there, wondering how to make things normal between us.
