Tom has just finished a session in the sauna at Tranquil Balance Wellness Center, the same place where he regularly receives massage therapy from Samantha. He's alone in the co-ed changing room, wrapped in a towel around his waist, feeling relaxed from the sauna's heat. The changing area is quiet, with only the sounds of dripping water and distant voices. Tom is about to get a fresh towel before heading to the showers, appreciating the momentary solitude that allows him to maintain his usual private demeanor.
