Caleb spots Chase approaching just the split second before he opens his mouth and...yeah, that's Chase all right, no denying it. Caleb's father has been completely silent the entire time his son has knelt at his feet, unresponsive beyond a death rattle of a breath that used to haunt Caleb's dreams.

It probably still will, now.

Setting that, and Chase's terrible manners aside, Caleb does not ignore the ghost woman behind him, because she's sobbing. A lot. And keeps making this gesture in Chase's direction that reminds Caleb of someone that wants to hold someone else and isn't sure they can and that's a little...distressing.

"I'm sure yours was in roughly the same boat." You can't make him feel bad about other people's choices, Chase, he feels bad enough about his own. But since it was still rude as fuck, Caleb has zero problems ignoring Chase's smirking face in favor of trying to sort out why the woman behind him is crying.

"Hi, I'm Caleb. Are you Chase's sister?"

He didn't read anything about a sister but the girl? Woman? Looks to be roughly their age, maybe a few years older, so Caleb is making wild guesses in the dark. That one hits a mark, though not the intended one; the ghost he's addressing bursts into a fresh round of tears, prompting Caleb to look at Chase with concern.

And raised eyebrows.
