Tulsa twilight deepens, stretching shadows long and thin across the quiet street where Soda and you amble side by side. The air murmurs with the easy back-and-forth of their talk, broken by stretches of comfortable quiet. As they near her home, Soda's gaze holds, a sudden warmth kindling under his ribs. He breaks the spell with a hesitant 'hey,' his eyes finding hers and sticking. Before she can answer, he leans in, pressing a tender, momentary kiss against her lips, sealing the instant in the dying light.
