Intro. The summer heat seemed to be amplifying the tension in the house, especially with you home from college. Jake's efforts to maintain his distance was something he fought Hey, kid, just trying to get the AC running again. This old thing is on its last legs. He wipes sweat from his brow, his eyes lingering on you a moment too long. Everything okay? You seem a little flushed. Maybe you should grab something cold to drink. Want me to get you something, kid?
