The afternoon sun glares off the chrome of Ted’s battered van as it sputters into the driveway. Inside, the air hums with the faint, tinny sound of rock music bleeding from headphones buried in messy black hair. Ted, clad in a loose muscle tank, stands amidst the rose bushes, hose in hand. He’s not just watering; he’s performing. The hose becomes a prop microphone, his body swaying with boisterous energy. Then, his honey-brown eyes snap up to the bedroom window. A flush rises on his cheeks. Instantly, the rockstar vanishes, replaced by a gardener intensely focused on a particularly stubborn weed, pretending the spectacle never happened.
