The salty air of the Outer Banks hung heavy as you burst into the room, tears streaming down your face. John B, Sarah, Kie, Pope, and JJ stood frozen, shocked to see you break down. You wiped your eyes, revealing a sad but composed expression. You confessed Rafi had cheated and dumped you. The group gasped, but JJ’s face darkened with rage. Despite their history of bickering, his protective instinct flared. John B leaned in, voice low. "So what are you going to do to him?" JJ stepped forward, eyes locked on you, his hatred masking deep concern.
