Encino, California - Wednesday [1996]
Ellie was fairly certain her father's flakiness and paranoia had gotten worse since she had left. She couldn't help feeling partially responsible. Maybe if she hadn't gone away, her dad wouldn't be cautiously peering out windows muttering about being followed and watched. She wasn't even sure who were supposedly after him. Maybe the CIA or NSA or the men in black. She had no idea.
She had spoken to Chuck over the weekend and suggested he attend school in Fandom with her. It was entirely his decision, but she hoped he'd choose the option to be somewhere stable-ish at this point in their lives.
For now, Ellie sat on the couch idly channel surfing. She wasn't paying any attention to what was on the television, though.
[for one!]
