Facing It Together
I looked over at Jake, doubt etched across his face. “Listen, kid,” I said, offering him a steady, reassuring nod. “Whatever comes our way, we’ll face it together.” He managed a faint smile, the uncertainty in his eyes easing ever so slightly. It was a promise I intended to keep, no matter what challenges awaited us. The journey ahead was unexpected, but having someone to share it with made all the difference in the world.

The glow of streetlights in the distance grew brighter as we approached the next town. I nudged Jake, pointing. ‘See those lights? We’re almost there.’ He perked up, eyes wide with anticipation. The thought of a place bustling with life after miles of empty road seemed to lift our spirits. It was a welcome sight, this promise of warmth and activity beyond the truck’s cab.
