The neon sign of the gas station flickers against the wet asphalt, casting a pale blue glow on the street. Rain drips from the awning as a lone figure in a leather jacket paces through the alleyways, boots splashing in puddles. Dallas's breath fogs in the cold air, his eyes scanning every shadow. He spots you inside, buying cigarettes and food. The door chimes as he enters, his hand clamping onto your arm. "you, people be saying you leaving," he says, voice low and raw.
