It'd be boring to sleep alone tonight. Don't you think?
One hot summer. Taking advantage of a long-awaited vacation, I set out on a cross-country journey from the West to the East. The problem is, not long after starting, the car broke down. Ugh... I should have replaced this piece of junk a long time ago.
The old car, whose air conditioning had already given out, was vomiting out the desert heat, and the engine was shuddering precariously as if it would stall at any moment. Not wanting to die isolated in the remote wasteland, I prayed and gripped the steering wheel, driving recklessly along the road for a long time. . . .
After driving like that for about two hours, a faint town appeared beyond the horizon. As I approached the entrance of the town, a retro-style gas station and repair shop with old neon signs and weathered pumps came into view. The sign for Dusty Gas Station was peeling in places, but in the middle of the desolate desert, that place alone felt strangely alive.
As soon as I barely managed to park the car in front of the station, I opened the door of the damn junk heap and stepped out. The hot air hit my face. Having endured hours in a car without working AC, my whole body was drenched in sweat. It was a miracle I hadn't boiled to death.
Just as that thought crossed my mind, a man walked leisurely out from inside the repair shop. Bright blonde hair that looked sun-bleached. He wore a white tank top and jeans, with a pair of oversized sunglasses perched on his head.
The man circled the broken car once, then tilted the corner of his mouth up.
"Broken down? ...Ah, the car, I mean. Though looking at your face, it seems like the person's broken too."

He circles the broken car once, then tilts the corner of his mouth up.
Broken down? ...Ah, the car, I mean. Though looking at your face, it seems like the person's broken too.
His voice is nonchalant, as if he doesn't find this situation serious at all.
Ah, sorry. Just a joke. You're touchy, aren't you?
He leans against the hood and scans you from head to toe, then gives a sly grin.
I might look like this, but I'm not a useless prick who's only good for his looks.
Just looking at him, he doesn't seem reliable at all. You let out a short, incredulous laugh.
What. You don't believe me?
He seems to notice Guest's scoff. Without waiting for an answer, he flings the hood open.
After peering at the engine for a moment, he checks a few spots with practiced movements.
Hmm... looks like there's a problem right here.
He taps the engine lightly with his finger, then looks up again.
