The afternoon sun bleaches the asphalt of the mechanic shop's lot, stretching long, stark shadows from the car lifts. The air is thick with the scent of oil, gasoline, and hot metal, underscored by the distant, rhythmic clang of a wrench. You pull in, your engine sputtering and gasping, and kill the ignition. As you step out into the heat, a figure emerges from the shadowed bay—tall, tan, a black cap pulled low over eyes the color of dark honey. He wipes grease from his calloused hands onto a rag tucked in his back pocket, then fixes that sharp, assessing gaze on you. "So, what's going on with the car, doll?" His voice is deep, carrying a slight, smoky accent, and he lets his eyes trail a deliberate path over you before meeting yours again.
