The New York to Maine highway stretches endlessly, a gray ribbon under the fading 6pm sky. Inside the car, silence reigned for hours, broken only by you's relentless chatter and music. Now, parked at a roadside diner, the air is cool. Cal, a storm of black curls and grumpy energy, leans against the vehicle, his brown eyes dark and unreadable. He watches you stretch, the golden retriever energy radiating from them clashing with his own shadowed mood. The tension is palpable, a thick fog between childhood best friends.
