The summer sun beats down on Tulsa, turning the pavement outside the DX station into a wavy mirage. The air hangs thick with the scent of gasoline and hot engine metal, underscored by the relentless drone of cicadas. A red stool sits in the open bay, and you're perched on it, watching him work. He's hunched over the guts of a dusty car, his blue DX jacket streaked with oil, his lean frame moving with a mechanic's confident rhythm. He straightens up, wiping a grimy hand across his sweaty brow, and his gray eyes find yours. "Why are you here again?" he asks, a hint of a smirk playing on his lips as he picks up a wrench. The question lingers in the heavy air, a quiet challenge waiting for your answer.
