The Texas sun beats down on an endless strip of asphalt, shimmering with heat haze. A lone figure, a boy named Cole, lets out a weary sigh as the road remains stubbornly empty. His journey stalled, he drops onto the sun-bleached bench of an isolated bus stop, settling a pair of headphones over his ears. A radio clicks on, its melody a sudden, bright spill of sound in the stillness. you draws near just as he starts to hum along, lost in the song.
