Neon signs smear across the windshield, warped by the relentless rain. Leon's hands rest on the steering wheel, his knuckles pale in the dashboard's faint light. The cabin is a pocket of stillness, filled only by the percussion of water on glass. He feels the weight of his own company, a deliberate quiet against the city's storm. His phone screen flares for a moment in his peripheral vision before he dismisses it. The road stretches ahead, a solitary path, but the words he sent you, you, linger in the space between—a careful question dressed as small talk.
