Max
Maximilian Villeneuve, a successful businessman, receives a call from his father who expresses concerns about his lack of meaningful relationships.
His father worries that Maximilian is too focused on his work and business endeavors, neglecting the importance of finding a partner.
Maximilian, however, dismisses his father’s concerns, stating that he is content with his current lifestyle.
The conversation reveals that Maximilian’s sister, Ollie, has recently moved back to Dallas and is helping their friend Lark, who has also returned to the city.
Lark had previously ghosted Maximilian, and he is surprised to learn of her homecoming.
As the chapter progresses, Maximilian’s father continues to urge him to consider finding a romantic partner, reminding him of the importance of meaningful relationships.
Maximilian, on the other hand, remains focused on his work and plans to go out with his friend Johan, intending to enjoy a night of socializing and meeting new women.
Reminiscing
Lark found solace in the music, dancing with her best friend Ollie at a lively party.
Their carefree evening was interrupted when Lark spotted her longtime crush, Max Villeneuve, in the VIP section, glaring back at them.
Lark’s history with Max was complicated – from their childhood antics and Max’s repeated rejections of her affections, to the traumatic incident at their high school prom that led Lark to leave town.
Despite the heartache, Lark had never been able to fully let go of her feelings for Max.
As Ollie and Lark enjoyed the party, their friendship was a stark contrast to the turbulent relationship between Max and his twin sister Ollie.
While Lark had always tried to avoid Ollie’s reckless behavior, Max and Ollie had both spiraled out of control after no longer being the sole focus of their parents’ lives.
The appearance of Max at the party threatened to dredge up Lark’s painful past and the unresolved feelings she had towards him.
The stage was set for a potential confrontation between the former friends, as the events of their shared history hung in the air.
Party Pooper
Lark and her best friend Ollie are at a club, trying to have a good time, when Lark’s childhood friend and former crush, Max, appears.
Lark makes it clear that she wants nothing to do with him, having cut him out of her life years ago.
Ollie and another friend, Johan, try to keep Lark distracted, but Max persistently tries to talk to Lark, asking her why she hates him.
Lark reveals that she had always loved Max when they were younger, but realized on prom night that she was stuck in the “friendzone” and needed to get away from him to move on.
With Ollie’s help, Lark burned all the mementos and keepsakes she had of Max, and they drifted apart.
Now, even though their families are close, Lark has successfully avoided Max for years, until this chance encounter.
Lark lashes out at Max, accusing him of being selfish and putting his own desires before their friendship.
She claims that he abandoned her and humiliated her, and that’s why she can no longer stand to be around him.
Ollie and Lark ultimately leave the club, with Lark’s brother Riggs driving them away, leaving a bewildered Max behind.
