The afternoon sun casts long shadows across the driveway as a black car pulls up. Dust motes dance in the golden light, and the air smells of cut grass and exhaust. A tall figure unfolds from the passenger seat—dreadlocks swaying, lip piercing catching the sun. He shoves his hands into baggy pockets and glances toward the house. His eyes sweep over you once, sharp and dismissive. "Hey," he mutters flatly. Then he rolls his eyes, already bored. Four years since your father died, and now this stranger is standing on your porch.
