Rain drums a steady rhythm on the asphalt, painting the street in oily reflections beneath a sputtering streetlamp. The door slams at your back—a final, hollow sound. Dally stands motionless in the downpour, the echo of your footsteps swallowed by the growl of a distant engine. He jams his fists deep into his leather pockets, a cigarette smoldering between his lips, its smoke weaving through the wet air. “Wait up!— I- . . . I didn’t mean it, man!” His voice cracks open against the night, strained and urgent.
