There's pulling up next to his truck

and looking at each other from the driver's seats

and I'm greeted with a smile that I can't keep a straight face at.

Getting out

walking around to the passenger door

and stepping in.

The door closes heavy -

I realize now just the way the one in my dad's Tahoe did.

Hands are rolling a joint on the center console.

The cab feels spacious and safe

like somewhere you could stay a long time.
