After the game, Dalia drove to Lydia's and spent the night. They baked cookies, talked, binge watched some Teen Wolf, and it was like old times before things got so complicated.

"What time is it?" Dalia asked when she looked over and saw Lydia awake on her phone the next morning. "9:30."

Dalia groaned. "I should get ready and be on my way. My parents said we're doing family therapy as if therapy twice a week for myself isn't enough."

"Be positive. Maybe this is what you guys need. Maybe you're parents will have a breakthrough and get back together," Lydia said hopefully. "I've learned to not expect much anymore." Lydia sighed at her friends response. "Well good luck and let me know how it goes." They hugged each other goodbye, and Dalia went on her way home.

She decided to stop at Starbucks for a drink. When she was backing out with her drink she was looking at her phone and bumped into a sign. "Fuck. Fuck. Fuck," Dalia said loudly moving forward a little and getting out of the car.

She sighed when she saw the sign was fine, but her tail light was busted. She got in her car and drove home upset. When she walked in, she saw her family there. "Finally you're here. Where have you been?" Laura asked. "I stopped at Starbucks in my way from Lydia's. Um, so, Mommy, Daddy," Dalia said sweetly.

Everyone looked at her oddly. "Can I borrow some money?" Laura rolled her eyes and Billy let out a little laugh. "How much?" Billy asked. "Billy," Laura was not happy he was willing to give her more than her allowance.

"Not much. Um, just like 2.." Dalia trailed off. "What do you need two hundred more dollars for?" Laura asked. "Uh, not two hundred." They all looked at her confused. "Two... grand." Everyone's eyes widened. "What?!" Laura said. "What the hell do you need 2 racks for?" Jordan asked.

Dalia sighed knowing she wouldn't be able to hide the damaged car long. "I backed into a sign when I was leaving Starbucks, and my tail light broke. I don't know how much it costs to fix it, so I estimated like 2K to be safe."

Billy sighed while Laura asked how she didn't see the sign behind her. "I was distracted..."

"What coulda distracted you so much from backing up?" Billy asked. Dalia was silent for a moment. "Um... I was on my phone," Dalia admitted. Billy put his head in his hands. "Give me your keys," Laura held her hand out. Dalia rolled her eyes and gave them to her.

"Don't roll your eyes. You could've gotten seriously hurt," Billy said upset. "You two are dramatic. I'm literally fine. It was one sign which literally didn't get damaged at all." Liv and Jordan looked at each other surprised by their sister's dumb actions.
