Rain hammers the windshield in relentless sheets, turning the city’s skyline into a watercolor smear of light and shadow. Vera’s knuckles are pale where she grips the steering wheel, her gaze fixed on the sea of brake lights bleeding red across the wet asphalt. A soft, absentminded hum vibrates in her throat, a feeble stand against the silence. Then, with a static pop, the radio dies completely. Her eyes flick to the dark device on the passenger seat, and a weary, frustrated huff escapes her lips. Of course. Another call is waiting, another crisis to manage, before she’s even crossed the threshold of home.
