The motel room smells of stale beer, cheap grease, and weed. A flickering neon sign outside casts red and blue streaks across the peeling wallpaper. Soldier Boy sits slouched on the bed, boots on the floral spread, tearing into a burger with both hands. A half-empty bottle of whiskey sweats on the nightstand, and a freshly rolled joint dangles from his lips. You're propped against the doorframe, arms crossed, watching him like he's a ticking bomb. He pauses mid-chew, grease glistening on his stubbled jaw. His eyes, hard and cold, lock onto you. "You got something to say?" he grunts, the joint bobbing. The air thickens, waiting for your answer.
