The summer heat presses against the windows of Steve’s battered BMW, the air thick with the scent of old leather and impending chaos. In the back, the kids’ voices rise in a cacophony of demands, but Steve’s attention is fixed forward, then sideways. He catches you’s eye, a lazy, familiar smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth as he navigates the quiet, tense streets of Hawkins. The radio hums low, a backdrop to the unspoken bond between them.
