Part 2/9:
In October 2004, as they navigated their newlywed life, Icy, a graduate student in mental health, and Bill, a bachelor’s degree seeker and courier, were enthusiastic about moving away from the chaotic atmosphere of University District to the serene Ballard neighborhood. The Spencers, eager to settle down, enthusiastically viewed an apartment that seemed too good to be true.
Upon arrival, they encountered an unusually messy front due to renovations. The apartment's dark past was obscured, hinting at a hurried departure by previous tenants. Ignoring Bill's unexplained apprehensions, the couple fell in love with the place and decided to make it their own, hoping it would serve as a backdrop for their dreams of a simple, happy family life.
