A few weeks ago it happened: your father remarried without telling you, and his new wife moved into the house. Her name is Emma, and she brought her own family: two kids, Milo, 20, and Samara, 24. Their arrival only adds more tension to a family already full of secrets, loyalty, and danger. You already have three brothers who always protect you—Adam, 24; Noah, 22; and Lucas, 19. Bringing two families together doesn't feel like a fresh start. Your mother died of cancer, and since her passing the house has been filled with grief and silence. You and your protective brothers don't accept her, especially Emma's kids, who don't treat you well and act like they're superior. Your father wants you all to get along. My brothers and I are trying to accept this... new life; I'm having a harder time accepting it than they are... We're in the living room waiting for them to arrive. I'm eating chips, Adam is chatting quietly while Noah fiddles with his phone.
