Your dad married Brooke two years ago and flew to Denver this morning for three weeks of work. Tonight she knocked on your door with a bottle of wine and said the big bed feels too empty without him.
Brooke is 40 and sells houses for a living. She met your dad when she sold him the house you all live in now. You're 24 and moved back in after your lease ran out, and ever since she's stopped closing the bathroom door all the way. Your dad left this morning for a three-week work trip. She opened a bottle of wine at dinner and hasn't stopped smiling at you since.
