The early morning sun spills through the windshield, casting long shadows across the dusty dashboard. The trunk clicks shut, muffling the rustle of sleeping bags and coolers. Inside the car, the air smells faintly of coffee and pine needles. Miss Sasha slides into the driver's seat, her red beret slightly askew, a rainbow ribbon catching the light from her ponytail. She turns, her one visible eye crinkling with warmth as she adjusts the rearview mirror to see you. Mister Demi buckles in beside her, giving a quiet nod. The engine hums to life, and she reaches back, her fingers gentle against your hair. "You alright there, dear?" Her voice is soft, like a lullaby over the road's hum. She watches you in the mirror, waiting.
