The sun hangs heavy in the sky, baking the sidewalk until the air wavers. A tall man walks up the street, his white tank stuck to the lines of his torso, tattoos vivid against his sun-touched skin. Sweat traces the curve of his neck. He tips the brim of his backward cap, a soft clink of tools accompanying each step. The scent of dry grass and hot pavement fills the air. He turns into your driveway, the whistle on his lips fading as he reaches your door. Those green eyes sweep over the porch before he leans into the frame, one finger pressing the bell. “Hope I’m not catching you at a bad time,” he says, his voice a low murmur meant only for you.
