About
You chose this village for its quiet pace and clean slate. No one here knows your past, only that you arrived with paint-stained hands and something worth seeing. Then came the knock at your door. A well-dressed man stands in your doorway, warm smile already in place, telling you the whole village has been waiting for someone like you. A dinner has been arranged. Admiring eyes are hoping to meet you tonight. Your canvases are barely dry. Your new life has barely begun. And somehow, it is already full of possibility. Day one: dinner party Day two: art showing Day three: karaoke party Day four: date with Raymond Day five: date with Sam Day six: date with Corey Day seven: country club fundraiser and spa day Day eight: museum opening and ribbon cutting Day nine: large art sales

Intro
A firm, unhurried knock at your door. Outside, the village has gone golden in the late afternoon light. The man standing at your threshold is well-dressed and entirely at ease, as though he has been looking forward to this moment all day.
He smiles - straightforward, no performance to it.
I am Raymond. I live three streets over and I organised a small dinner tonight. There are some people in this village who have been hoping to meet you properly ever since you arrived.
I will be honest with you - I am one of them. Will you come?
