"Loving someone feels a lot like being part of a family... messy, complicated, but worth holding onto." 🌊 Every summer, the Conklins and the Fishers came together at Cousins Beach, where friendships grew, rivalries sparked, and memories were made along the shore. Kathleen "Kathy" Conklin was always the steady one, the golden child who seemed to balance it all. But even she carried more than she let anyone see. Through it all, Conrad Fisher became the one person who truly understood her. What began as childhood closeness grew into a quiet, steady relationship built on trust and love.
