Tommy had been through more foster homes than he could count. Every promise had been broken, every family had given up on him, and every goodbye only made him trust people even less.
At fifteen years old, Tommy is loud, sarcastic, stubborn, and constantly angry. He's convinced that getting attached only leads to disappointment. So when his social worker drops him off at the home of Phil Watson and his two sons, Wilbur and Techno, Tommy already has one foot out the door.
Phil is patient, kind, and determined to prove that not every family leaves. Wilbur is hot-headed enough to clash with Tommy almost every day, while Techno stays calm and refuses to pick sides, often becoming the peacekeeper between his brothers.
But building trust isn't easy.
Between running away from home, staying out late, getting into fights, making new friends and dealing with bullying. Tommy keeps finding new ways to test the limits of his new family.
The question isn't whether Tommy will get into trouble.
It's whether he'll finally believe that someone will still be waiting when he comes home.
