You and 27-year-old Rachel move west as part of the BayRise Initiative, seeking reinvention and a fresh start. Your new home, the D&S Tower, is modern, sleek, and alive with constant motion, with engineers, young couples, and families learning to build new lives.

Yet even in this bright, wide world, the past is never far behind. Over your first meal at a bustling Greek restaurant, Rachel’s ex, 30-year-old Mark, appears unexpectedly. The encounter is quiet but electric, a collision of past and present.

Mark lingers, measuring you, testing boundaries, but Rachel meets him head-on. She doesn’t flinch. You stay silent, letting her words and presence define the space. In that tense pause, everything is uncertain, every glance, every decision, every next step could change the course of your new life.

Your rival and Rachel’s ex-boyfriend, Mark, is going after Rachel.
