Annie's Point Page #3

He was my best friend.

We did everything

together.

We were supposed to leave

this earth together.

If I move to that place,

will you make me a promise?

Anything.

You have to take me

to Annie's point. Please.

I already told you,

as soon as...

I need a promise.

I promise.

And it has to be all of

us... you and me and Ella.

Ok.

And we have to drive.

It'll force you

to spend time with Ella,

Get to know

each other again,

Get to be friends again.

Mom...

Whatever you want.

I've got to go

back to work, ok?

Just call me

if you need anything.

And no stoves,

all right?

I'll see you.

Dad?

Oh!

I'm sorry.

Oh, you should not

sneak up on me.

Dad, I said

I was sorry.

Yeah, but what I'm

telling you... dad!

It's all right. What do you need, honey?

Do you like

construction?

Uh... Sure.

Did grandpa make you

work with him?

No. No, I think he just

always wanted me to...

Do whatever

made me happy.

He did say his door

would always be open,

And then one day

I just walked in. Why?

Just asking, I guess.

Mom would've been

46 tomorrow.

I know.

Remember the 40th birthday

party we threw for her?

The surprise party?

Oh, some surprise.

She knew.

Yeah, but she pretended

that she didn't.

Out of all the places

we could've gone,

She wanted to go...

Roller skating.

My knees have never

been the same.

Dad?

I really don't think

that I'm making a mistake.

To tell you the truth, I'm not

really sure what you're doing.

I know I have

some talent with music.

I just don't know...

Sorry.

Hello?

Oh, yes, Mr. Backis.

No, no. We've avoided

that with Mr. Nucci.

Tomorrow? Um...

I'm supposed

to bring my mother

To a retirement

community tomorrow.

Mr. Backis, can I

call you back?

Thank you.

Ok, bye.

Do you want me

to go with grandma

To her new place?

It's not just

the work, Ella.

It's...

I understand.

I'll go with her.

I don't know if Richard's

gonna keep his promise.

Maybe I should just

pack the car up

And head out

to Annie's point.

It's ridiculous,

isn't it?

I know I made

that promise to you.

I'm just not sure how

I'm going to pull it off.

Well, we'll talk more

about this in the morning.

Good night, my love.

You have all your pills?

Yes, Richard.

I wish I could drive you

to the orientation.

That's ok.

It's just that I canceled

on these guys yesterday.

I said it's ok.

I know this is all

happening really fast,

But you're gonna like the

place, I know you will.

And just think...

you're gonna be

Practically neighbors

with Louise.

I'm gonna be fine.

Are you gonna be

ok to drive?

Ella's here.

I'll be fine.

All right.

So, I'll, uh...

I'll stop in later tonight

to get you settled.
