Developer's description
The last thing Sam expected during his final summer before university was to end up staying at Michael’s house, his mom’s ex-husband. A man he hadn’t seen in over ten years and didn’t have the fondest memories of. What was meant to be a short stay quickly becomes something far more complicated, when old resentment meets unexpected curiosity. As Sam meets new people and struggles with unfamiliar thoughts, one thing becomes clear: this trip isn’t just about getting by, it’s about discovering what he really desires.
