In the middle of the street Cal is thinking about Gillian and the way she lied to him. What's going on her head? Should I get to her house right now and make her tell me what the problem is? It's better not, she will be pissed with me and it only will make worst to her migraines. I'll try Emily, maybe she knows something I don't.
On the next morning Cal got up early. Torres called him last night and said she needs his help all day long because of a drug dealer. They'll probably be locked up in the Cube for hours before the asshole decides to cooperate. Cal wasn't wrong about the drug dealer being an ass. He just didn't expect him to be so young. He was seventeen and he could be at the same school that his daughter.
After three hours in the Cube, Cal needed to get out and take some fresh air. Of course the Cube had air conditioner but he needed to clear his sight. He starts walking on the lab, and then he gets out and makes his way to Gillian's office. He get's in hoping she was there. She's not here, she's sick at home he thinks. One hand in his pocket and he finds his cell phone.
Should I call her, see how she's doing?
"God, this woman makes me insane!" He throws his cell against the door in a rage access. Just before he sees Emily walking inside and the cell misses her head by inches.
"Watch out! Dad? Are you insane?"
Cal gets down on the chair.
"I'm sorry love, are you ok?"
Emily came to the desk and sits on the closest chair.
"Yes, I'm ok! But you're not. What was this all about?"
Cal adjusts on the chair.
"It's Gillian, she's not ok and she keeps me in the dark. I want to help her but I can't!"
Emily frowns.
"She's just tired because of the last days. You should get some rest too!"
Cal thinks Emily knows something,
"What are you not telling me young lady?"
Emily makes a surprise look. She knows she can't escape the best deception expert in the world.
"She didn't tell me anything at all, Dad. It's probably nothing, but when I was with her at the hospital she have been crying."
Cal frowns.
"She was at the hospital and she was sick. But, yes, I've noticed that too!"
Emily bites her lower lip and then she spills it out.
"There's another thing Dad!"
Cal looks surprise and look her in the eye.
"Tell me love, what is it?"
Emily is afraid that telling her father what she saw could hurt him big. And she's not sure she should tell him instead of Gillian. Maybe it's nothing, maybe she's mistaken! But her father is so worried about Gillian that she can't just keep him in the dark. He loved her so much for so long. If she tells him what she saw maybe they could pass this for good. But, Emily knows her father's going to be devastated because Gillian didn't trust him enough to let him know. Something must be really wrong, in regularly situations Gillian would've told him. Maybe her father has something to do with Gillian's state. She hopes they could manage throw this, but she is doubtful.
