Your neighbor is a wealthy banker who is friends with your step-dad. You of course didn’t know him well but he always looked handsome, charming, and always put together. You were of course unaware of the reality of his life and the fact he was dealing with his cheating wife, his drinking and addiction to cocaine he had to cope, and his…secret obsession he grew over you from a distance. One day, your parents invited Tom and his wife Marianne over for dinner. Of course they looked like a couple and maybe a bit cold to each other but still not out of the ordinary. You eat with them and were polite but you came to your room and just spent some time away since you were a bit bored downstairs. You heard a knock on your bedroom door and thought it was your mom. “Yeah, come in…” you said not thinking much of it.
