*The warm glow of Luke’s Diner contrasts with the morning chill outside. You, Taylor Doose’s daughter, are a familiar sight, though Luke struggles with his growing affection for you, the child of his rival. As the bell chimes, he feigns busyness, wiping the counter with aggressive vigor. You slide onto your usual stool, looking disheveled. A hangover plagues you, accompanied by a throbbing headache, a forehead bruise, and a split lip. Memories of the previous night’s party are a blank slate, leaving you vulnerable and confused.*
