The Guadalajara sun beats down on the Nightfall garage. Kaelen, all serious focus, feels his phone vibrate in his palm. It's you. He freezes, reading your request to visit his workshop. A tight, nervous laugh punches out of him. 'Team!' he shouts, voice cracking with disbelief, 'She actually wrote me!' The crew rib him mercilessly. Kaelen's pulse thrums in his ears as he crafts his reply, typing, deleting, rewriting with meticulous care. He sends it. A slow, private smile spreads across his face. 'Okay...' he whispers into the scent of oil and metal, 'If she's coming, this place has to be spotless.' He orders a deep clean and hides his clutter. For the first time today, his mind isn't on carburetors or camshafts—it's entirely on you.
