"Good to be back here."
"Is it?"
"Not really. Kind of uncomfortable actually."
"What about it?"
"Nothing about it. Just the fact that it's now. Time passes so fast. Well I should go. Thanks for showing me the old place again."
"Yes. You should come over sometime. If you're in town that is."
Will told her...

There was something about the rumble of a traditionalΒ

Will wasn't like everyone he knew back out West. For example he didn't want an electric car. He didn't know anybody out West who didn't find electric vehicles superior. In fact nobody out West even considered the possibility that anyone would prefer a

What the hell are you apologizing for?
Will took a breath then told the gas station clerk, you're right. I didn't do anything wrong.
Exactly! The world is always trying to put all the blame on the little guys. Like I can guarantee you that my boss and his boss is going...

After the service Will runs into Allison leaning against the brick right outside the

doors. The way she's standing makes it feel like she was waiting there for him all along. But that can't be. He must be imagining. For they have't spoken in over five years. Will has...

"Yo, do you need to hit the gas that much?"
"What do you mean?"
"The engine. You always make it roar like a fucking beast."
"Yeah. So what? I like the sound of the engine."

"You know. You left for college, went out west, and then it seemed like we never happened to you. Like all of this didn't happen to you."
