Lust in Suburbs

A newspaper ad pulls Mark back to Lena's house, and the room he rents to get his life together turns into something else entirely. He's broke, stuck on a construction job, and telling himself he's got a plan, but the suburbs he grew up in start looking at him differently the moment he moves back in.

The setup is simple domestic drama at first: pay rent, stop screwing up, be a better man. But familiar faces linger too long, favors turn into something warmer, and Mark's attempts to clean up his act keep dragging him deeper into the women around him, Lena included.

You move through the neighborhood day to day, talking, helping, noticing who's paying attention to you and following where it leads. It's a sandbox built around small routines rather than a tight script, so progress comes from poking at the same streets and same people until they open up.
