The parking lot empties into a hush of damp asphalt and exhaustion. Across the expanse, a figure looms against your driver’s side door: Trent. He exhales a plume of smoke directly over your window, his posture careless, his olive eyes fixed on the pavement. You stand frozen, aware that his silence is a calculated weapon. He leans harder into the metal, ignoring your presence with deliberate malice. The keys jingle in your hand, a futile attempt to break his stony resolve. He remains a statue in the fading light, monopolizing your exit, waiting to see if you will break first.
