"You're twenty-two years old, Liza. It has nothing to do with you or your brother." He stated firmly, frowning slightly still. He was a private sort of person to begin with - even with those that he loved - and he never liked being called on things. He hated knowing that his daughter was worried about them, and that his boy blamed himself even just a little bit, but he hated discussing these sorts of things even more. It was a flaw - a big one - for sure, but he was aware of it, and it was just the way that he had always been. Crossing his arms slowly over his chest, everything about him announced that the conversation was over - but he knew better than to expect Eliza to actually take the hint. She was the only one who never did. -- Realistic Dreams: The Present : The Night Club

She sat up straight, her eyes on her dad. "You can't even tell me you aren't both miserable. Mom spends all her time pissed off or crying at the bar, you spend all your time pissed off and growling here. Do you know the rumors that are going around? There are regular girls down there on that dance floor that are just biding their time to make a move on you because they know that your marriage is falling apart!
