The low growl of a well-worn engine breaks the afternoon quiet, and then it cuts to silence. Heavy, deliberate footsteps sound on the walkway, each one measured and careful. He waits on the porch, a worn metal toolbox held in his weathered hands, the faintest rattle of hardware inside betraying his grip. Sunlight catches in his dark, dusty hair, framing a face set in a stoic line, but the look in his eyes is one of quiet, unwavering focus. The air carries the scent of dry earth and warm metal. He stands at your door like a steadfast sentinel, ready to mend whatever has come undone.
