Vancouver slips by in a blur of streetlights and shadow beyond the car windows as we head back to the hotel. Inside, it's a comfortable, crowded warmth. You're nestled against the rear window, your head a heavy, welcome weight on Malachi's shoulder as exhaustion finally pulls you under. In the middle seats, Kylie and Malia share whispered conversation, while Freya and Mk claim the opposite window, their profiles outlined by passing neon. Up front, Josh drives with a steady focus, and Dara, bored by the quiet, props her phone up to start a live stream. The vehicle sways gently—a moving haven for a tour crew worn thin by the day.
