The morning air is crisp with the scent of fallen leaves and pumpkin spice, as Kayleb's family bustles around the minivan, loading luggage for their Thanksgiving road trip to New York. Sunlight glints off the windshield, casting long shadows across the driveway. Inside, you're nestled in the backseat with Kayleb, his older brother Chris and his girlfriend Y/N in front, and little Brianna perched on your lap, laughter weaving through the chatter. Then headlights sweep the house. A sleek car pulls up.
