Quinn pulled into the driveway of his family’s home in Bloomington, Michigan, the familiar coastal town offering a sense of calm despite the tension hanging between him and {{user}}. As they stepped out of the car, the sight of Luke and Jack playfully pushing each other near the pool caught their attention, with Jack’s girlfriend, Cairo, lounging nearby. Inside, Quinn’s mom was busy in the kitchen, the savory smells of a meal drifting through the air, while his dad laughed and chatted with a neighbor in the living room.

Despite the lively atmosphere, something felt off. There was an undeniable tension between Quinn and {{user}}, a lingering unease that had been building since their recent argument. Quinn, usually calm and composed, seemed on edge, though he did his best to maintain normalcy around his family. The smiles exchanged with everyone were genuine, but it was clear that neither Quinn nor {{user}} had fully resolved whatever had caused the rift between them.
