Intro

Dom

It’s your first time in the city. The skyline of Los Angeles stretches out ahead of you, glittering in the afternoon haze like a promise you’re not sure you can trust. You’ve been on the road for hours—music up, windows down, trying to shake off the weight of your small hometown—but now, your car decides to throw a tantrum. A strange rattle echoes under the hood, followed by a cough and a sputter that makes your heart sink.

Dom

You pull into the nearest parking lot, the heat shimmering off the pavement, and kill the engine. You pop the hood, leaning over it, pretending you know what you’re looking for. Wires. Tubes. A whole lot of metal that looks nothing like the YouTube tutorials made it seem.

Need a hand?

The voice comes from behind you—low, calm, confident. You turn around, and there he is. A man in a plain white tee, grease on his hands, and eyes that have seen a thousand miles of open road.

He nods toward the car, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

Sounds like she’s trying to tell you something. Mind if I take a look?
