Krystal arrives home around 11:30 p.m. She walks in the door and finds her dad in his dark blue robe with crossed arms. He has an expression of irritation on his face.

"Dad?" Krystal says, confused, as she shuts the front door.

"You're home past curfew!" Mr. Wayne says, sternly. Krystal's curfew is 10:30.

"Okay, so I'm an hour late, so what?" Krystal asks, not seeing a problem.

"So what?" Mr. Wayne repeats, after his daughter. "You know your curfew is ten thirty!" Mr. Wayne strictly reminds his daughter, and putting his hands on his hips.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I won't do it again!" Krystal says, a bit scared.

"Krystal, tell me, why were you past curfew?" Mr. Wayne asks, walking closer to his daughter.

"Did you do drugs!?" Mr. Wayne asks, strictly.

"What? No-"

"Did you do something illegal!?" Mr. Wayne asks, on a roll of questions.

"Of course-"

"Did you have sex!?" Mr. Wayne asks, loudly.

"What?" Krystal asks, confused.

"Krystal Elizabeth Kyle-Wayne!" Mr. Wayne exclaims. A look of terror forms on Krystal's face. The full name. Every letter. Every sound. Every part of Krystal's four-worded name!

"No!" Krystal yells. "I didn't have sex!" Krystal screams. "But does it matter?" Krystal asks, still yelling. "I called you for help and you didn't even answer, and you always answer my calls!" Krystal points out.

"I could have been working!" Mr. Wayne defends himself.

"At nine-thirty at night?" Krystal asks, crossing her arms.

"It's part of being a hero!" Mr. Wayne exclaims, walking closer to his daughter. Krystal and her father state at each other in anger, taking heavy breaths.

"Go to your room!" Mr. Wayne angrily demands, and breaking the silence.

"I'm not done!" Krystal exclaims.

"I said go to your room!" Mr. Wayne demands again.

"Why should I listen to the man who wasn't in my life for sixteen goddamn years?" Krystal angrily
asks.

"Because I'm-"

"Please, you may be my father, but you were never there for me!" Krystal says, angrily. She runs upstairs with anger in her soul.
