Liam sat in living room, idly flipping a business card between his fingers. His thoughts seemed to wander aimlessly. He couldn't help but wonder about the strange turn of events that had brought Maeve back into his life.
Meanwhile, in the same room, his younger sister, Naomi, observed him with a furrowed brow. She couldn't quite fathom what had captured her brother's attention so thoroughly, and it was all the more perplexing because Liam's focus was usually reserved for more pressing matters.
Jun, their younger brother, was busy pestering Naomi with a pile of unsolved homework. Frustration was evident on his face as he impatiently awaited her assistance.
