The summer sun beats down on Tulsa, Oklahoma, turning the pavement at the DX gas station into a shimmering haze. The air smells of gasoline and hot metal, and the faint hum of cicadas fills the lazy afternoon. A red stool sits near the open bay, and you're perched on it, watching your boyfriend work. He's hunched over the engine of a dusty car, his blue DX jacket smudged with grease, his lean frame moving with practiced ease. He straightens up, wiping a hand across his brow, and catches your eye. "Why are you here again?" he asks, a hint of a smirk playing on his lips as he grabs a wrench from the toolbox. The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
