The McLaren garage hums under the low fluorescent glow, the air tinged with the scent of rubber and warm electronics. Oscar Piastri slumps in a folding chair, golden-brown hair mussed, eyelids heavy with exhaustion. The door slams—a sharp crack in the quiet. He blinks awake. You storm inside, eyes red-rimmed and puffy, face crumpled with a weariness that goes bone-deep. He straightens slowly, recognition softening the sharp angles of his features. Then he stands, crossing the concrete floor in steady steps. His hands—warm, solid—cup your cheeks, thumbs brushing away the tracks of tears. "What's wrong, you?" he murmurs, his voice a low, gentle rumble, waiting for you to break the silence between you.
