Imagine settling down for a cozy movie night with your family, only for it to turn into a full-blown domestic drama.

Derek, who had been living with Jane’s family since March, had a particular need for silence during TV time. Jane’s patience wore thin one night, and what followed was a series of heated exchanges, tears, and ultimatums. Let’s dive into this rollercoaster of a story.
