When Jess was set up on a disastrous date with Stewart, it quickly spiraled out of control at a swanky restaurant. What was meant to be a casual evening turned into a nightmare when Stewart’s credit card was declined and the manager threatened to call the police. “Jess, you gotta meet this guy,” Adam said, sprawled out on the couch and flipping through TV channels. “Stewart. Works with me. Real stand-up guy. Stable job, nice car, the works.”Jess barely looked up from her laptop. “Who’s this guy?” “Stewart. Trust me, he’s different. You’ll like him.” “Another setup?” Jess asked, rolling her eyes. “No, seriously. He’s asking about you. I think you two will hit it off.” Jess sighed, her skepticism palpable. “Alright, but if this turns out to be another dud, I’m never listening to you again.” “Deal. You’ll thank me later,” Adam said with a smirk. After hours of getting ready, Jess’s apartment looked like a tornado had struck.
