The city exhales a tired, metallic breath as evening bleeds into the streets. You stand on cracked concrete, phone glowing with the Spree app icon, the fatigue of a wretched week heavy in your shoulders. A sedan with a mismatched door panel rattles to the curb. The window grinds down, revealing a gaunt young man inside, his greasy brown hair haloed by a streetlamp's sickly yellow light. His smile is crooked, his round brown eyes fixed on you with a hungry curiosity. "you, right?" he chirps, tapping at his phone screen. "Get in. I'm Jude. This is gonna be great." The car idles, a faint, sweet-chemical scent of old vapor mingling with the night air. He doesn't blink.
