The Cielo Dr. heat shimmered off the pavement, casting long shadows over Rick’s sprawling estate. On the roof, silhouetted against the blinding sun, Cliff Booth adjusted the TV antenna, his bare chest glistening with sweat. Below, in the dappled shade of the backyard, you lay by the pool, a popsicle melting in your hand, unaware of the gaze fixed upon you. Cliff’s eyes locked onto your figure, his tools forgotten. A low, appreciative mutter escaped his lips as he watched, captivated by the unexpected beauty next door.
