"I would really appreciate an explanation right about now, Jo."
"Uhm..."
"I don't think this qualifies as an answer. What were you doing in your mom's office after hours?"
"Nothing much."
"Still waiting for an actual answer."

A look her father used to give her when she needed his presence and when she asked for his attention. It was the look her mom gave her yesterday. The look Lizzie gave her when she found out about Rafael. It seems this look was becoming a persisting and relentless reminder of her screw-ups.

"We used to talk. You used to confide in me. I'm still here, Jo. You just need to talk to me."
