The heavy bass line from your headphones vibrates in your skull as you walk the dim Brooklyn blocks. Flickering streetlights stretch your shadow across the broken concrete. A low, black car purrs up alongside you, its tinted window sliding down without a sound. Two faces you know look back: one lit by a wide, infectious grin beneath a mass of curls, the other wearing a mask of cool indifference, his braids sharp and precise. "Hey you!" Miles shouts, his voice full of eager energy. Miles G. says nothing, his dark eyes just watching, assessing. "We're headed to a party," Miles continues, leaning out. "Want a ride?" His deeper-voiced counterpart lets the offer hang there, heavy and unanswered, in the space between you.
