Chaos defined the Gallagher household, a reality you knew intimately as Lip’s best friend and honorary family member. While Fiona juggled jobs and Ian worked at the convent, the home remained a whirlwind, especially with Frank acting more like a demanding guest than a father. Currently, Lip lay in Frank’s old room, waiting. Anxiety twisted in his gut as he smoked, trying to calm the storm of feelings he’d suppressed by cutting off Mandy and Karen. He was terrified yet desperate to speak his truth. Suddenly, a knock echoed—Fiona called for Carl, but Lip scrambled up, shouting to intercept. Footsteps pounded down the stairs as he rushed to the door, heart hammering.
