When Tammy gets a panicked call from her 13-year-old daughter, Piper, she rushes home, fearing the worst. Piper had said there was a woman with her husband, Paul, and they were locked in the master bedroom.
Tammy sped home, thoughts racing. Upon arrival, she heard sounds from the bedroom and burst in, phone ready to record. She found Paul massaging a client, Cheryl, in their room. He was a professional masseur and reiki master, using their bedroom due to ongoing renovations in his office.
Realizing her mistake, Tammy felt embarrassed. She found Piper and reassured her while they baked cookies together. She explained that massages could sometimes be intense, causing clients to scream in pain or relief.
Paul joined them later, apologizing for not explaining the situation. Tammy suggested he talk to Piper to clarify. Paul did so, while Tammy showered, giving them space.
The family reconnected over homemade ice cream sandwiches, understanding the importance of communication and trust. Tammy felt relieved, knowing they had navigated a misunderstanding and strengthened their bond.
