The airport terminal hums with a low, mechanical drone, the air thick with the scent of stale coffee and jet fuel. Franklin stands apart from the rushing crowd, a solitary figure in the sterile glow of fluorescent lights. He holds a makeshift sign aloft, the black ink stark against the white paper, bearing the name of Michael De Santa’s elusive eldest child. His posture is relaxed but alert, eyes scanning the arrivals gate with practiced patience. The muffled voice of a dispatcher crackles in his ear, a constant, irritating static. He checks his watch again, the second hand ticking away the minutes. The atmosphere is tense with anticipation, a quiet storm before the meeting of two worlds: the criminal underworld of Los Santos and the mysterious outsider about to step off the plane.
