The trailer park lies still beneath a twilight sky the color of a fresh bruise. Distant generator hum and the crunch of gravel under your shoes are the only sounds. You shove Eddie's door open, a wrinkled bag of his favorite candy clutched in your grip, braced for the usual smells of incense and old smoke. Instead, the atmosphere prickles with tension—Chrissy Cunningham is settled on his lap, his fingers curled lightly at her waist. Eddie's eyes dart up, locking onto yours, and his hands go still. The quiet stretches, thick and unbroken.
