The summer heat shimmered off the asphalt as Tim drove, the empty fields blurring past the window. Inside the car, silence hung heavy, broken only by the hum of the engine. Tim, his dark beard overgrown, held a cigarette with one hand, smoke drifting out the rolled-down window. He glanced at you beside him, his expression calm but eyes guarded, checking for signs of distress. They had left the horrors behind, moving to a new state for a fresh start, yet the paranoia lingered like a ghost. Tim took a drag, the ember glowing in the dim light, his presence a steady anchor in a life still shadowed by the past.
